The "gold card" President Trump has described would be a new visa granting lawful permanent resident status in the US and a pathway to citizenship. But a president alone can’t create a pathway to citizenship: https://cnn.it/4koXFfm

1st - What person able to cough up $5M, is unable to get US citizenship if they want it?
2nd - WHY would they even want to become a citizen of a shit hole country if theyre that wealthy?
Trump wants to run government like he runs a business. Like his business that was convicted of fraud, whose CFO and legal advisor spent time in jail, whose pseudo-charity and pseudo-university were shut down.
It's not government, it's grifterment.
Oh but he’s Donald J Trump, makeup artist. Extraordinaire and the best in the world at everything. He can do anything he wants, because a country of idiots don’t have the balls or the ability to stop him. It’s chess and he’s been positioning his pieces for years. I pity America
Wait I thought the MAGA agenda was to make America white again? All the racists MAGA followers commenting on this topic during the campaign seem to say this was a key point for voting. They want immigrants gone. But now it’s okay for them? Your messaging is confusing 😆
Remember, that according to Trump, anything issued can be revoked by the next president. Anyone Trump gives this to should be deported to Gitmo once he's out.
Everything is legal for this president when you have a captive congress and Supreme Court that won’t oppose him. The balance of powers have failed. Our three branches of government have failed. The American experiment is over.
If Trump stays in office i’d like to sell my citizenship for 5 million! I can pay my debt and not live with P2025 who’s stripping our government & freedom for the sake of power! So yeah my citizenship is up for 5 million & I’ll go live somewhere in peace without all this bull crap!
Yes all these rich people will buy that gold Visa card from good people that has big companies to bad people that deal in weapons and drugs which the USA government won’t be able to check
Got to hope the other 'lawmakers' can stop career criminals from buying their way into America. It's worked already for the Tates. Trump himself is a convicted felon, so his sights are a little 'baser' than staying legal.
Follow the gold plated pathways.
And how will we protect ourselves from the terrorists who can easily fund citizenship in the US?!! You can’t because Trumthe clown gutted our front line of defense with cuts to the CIA and FBI. You take away infrastructure and we’re the fucking banana republic!
NOW you’re going to tell us how t CONSTITUTION works? You haven’t used it over DOGE, frozen funds, shutting down programs CREATED BY CONGRESS, usurping Congress’ Constitutional power, congressional purse strings? There has been PLENTY to cite the Constitution over. Start educating the public w/ it
"It is illegal to charge for citizenship in the United States; federal law (18 U.S. Code § 1422), knowingly demanding, collecting, or receiving fees beyond those authorized by law in relation to naturalization or citizenship proceedings, punishable by a fine / imprisonment up to five years."
No one. This has actually been asked to experts, there is no one that can ACTUALLY hold the president accountable for contempt of court. That’s an issue. There needs to be language that states that that some arm of law enforcement is responsible for holding them responsible if they defy the court.
Alexander Hamilton: Came to the USA as an impoverished immigrant from the West Indies and became one of the Founding Fathers and the first US Secretary of the Treasury.
Joseph Pulitzer: Came to the USA as a poor Hungarian immigrant and became an important publisher.
It is not possible to take over the United States militarily.
But with some Trojan horses (Trumpn, Elon) destroying the country politically and socially and
if the population splits, it is possible to take over.
And Putin knows that.
And it's happening right now.
God bless Us people
I guess the inscription from Emma Lazarus' poem that is located on bronze plaque at the #StatueofLiberty doesn't count anymore to the orange guy. "Give me your tired, your poor..."
Trivia "This poem was written as a donation to an auction of art and literary works conducted by the "Art Loan Fund Exhibition in Aid of the Bartholdi Pedestal Fund for the Statue of Liberty" to raise money for the pedestal's construction."
Thanks for posting/responding. 🙂 I know about the history. Limited words.🙂 Years ago, I was lucky enough to attend an event where the history of the S.O.Liberty was explained. 🙂
So you’re not a criminal or rapist if you can afford his “Willy Wonka Golden Ticket”. My guess is there’s quite a few cartel that will be able to afford to come now, they seem to be the criminals & rapist that’s just like him. Wealthy rapist criminals.
The reason it might sell well is the new tax loophole allowing gold card holders to only pay taxes on their US based income not their global income. This is new and will allow the US to become a safe haven for ultra rich dirtbags.
If you pay an additional $5 million, you’ll an official Trump Get Out Of Jail Free card. At the scene of your next murder or assault, just present your card to the arresting officer.
He’ll punch out one of the 10 Reprieve slots on your card and you’re free to go!
Why does he want more rich people in this country if they just keep lowering taxes on rich people? They become freeloaders living off our systems and not putting anything in. At least working immigrants are paying taxes and contributing to society.
*President Trump illegally attempts to sell citizenship to the wealthy. See how easy that was? FFS, @cnn.com. Stop sanitizing authoritarianism from a convicted felon and adjudicated r@pist.

Land of the free, my Aunt Fannie.
Especially now. 🙄America is ghetto.
And yet this guy seems to be doing a whole lot of things he cannot do. If a court issues, a judgment against him, who’s going to enforce it?
George Soros: Came to the USA from Hungary and built up a huge financial empire.
Jerry Yang: Came to the USA from Taiwan and became co-founder of Yahoo!
Joseph Pulitzer: Came to the USA as a poor Hungarian immigrant and became an important publisher.
Arnold Schwarzenegger: Came to the USA from humble origins in Austria.
Madeleine Albright: Came to the USA as a penniless refugee from Czechoslovakia.

We have neighbors from Russia who got in that way (and the H1b program isn't much better (480,000 most in tech here already)
#Trump
Trump, not Mexico, is incentivizing criminals to come to the US.
