This is another grift to add to his portfolio of products. For example Trump Steak, Trump Phone, Trump University, Trump Coin, Trump shoes and so on. He never puts his name or face on something unless he knows he has a way to make a ton of money off it by screwing someone over and get away with it. He also doesn’t have to borrow money from banks anymore because the United States assumes the risk.
Remember that billionaires never spend their own money. Trump always drops a chaff grenade for the media when he is getting ready to do something really stupid using the public’s money. This is one of those moments. So the question is not, “Who is going to buy this?” the question is “What is he about to grift next using tax dollars?”
“sale of 1,000 Gold Cards this week, raising $5 billion in a single day.”
Good for you, even if the number is true (it is not) and these keep saleing (it won’t), we just need a year and a half to make back the 2.5 trillion stock market lost overnight; and 6 years to make back 11 trillion lost since he took the office.
BTW, I cannot it has only been less than 3 month. Feels like years have passed.
At this point, you’d have to be badly mentally challenged if you’re willing to pay to live in U.S
Who keeps the $5m per wealthy immigrant? If it’s Trump himself, isn’t that very very illegal?
Yes, he really is that out of touch.
When you are a 34 times convicted felon President, they just let you do it.
The fuckhead is damned conceited it boggles the mind how anyone can even get near him
Why not let Americans sell their citizenship for $5m instead.
That’s some capitalism I can get behind! Free the citizenship market!
I’d do it in seconds.
“Who is the first buyer?” one of the reporters asked.
“Me,” Trump quipped.
“The second?” the reporter pushed on.
“I don’t know, but I’m the first buyer. It’ll be out in … less than two weeks. Pretty exciting, right?” the president asked.
First of all, why would he be the first buyer of an express residency card when he’s already a citizen? Fucking moron.
Second, “it’s happening in two weeks” is Trumpspeak for “it’s literally never going to happen.”
So law and order is just bullshit now right? You buy a gold fucking stupid ass card with dear leader’s picture on it and you get to skip the line? Where is that money going by the way, to Trump or a public fund?
You buy a gold fucking stupid ass card with dear leader’s picture on it and you get to skip the line?
There have been similar (non-literal) golden visas offered all over the world, mainly by poorer EU countries or the various third-tier states that make most of their foreign exchange through money-laundering.
When you’re a Russian asset, you sometimes forget to fake being a citizen.
He’s not faking being a citizen. He’s faking being self-aware. He barely has a clue wtf he’s talking about at any given time. That’s all.
Residual salesman brain.
Trump: I am awesome, I bought this thing, it is awesome, you will be awesome if you buy it too.
It bears no relationship to … making any kind of sense, because it is literally a hustle, a psychological manipulation tactic.
He is just saying salesman words, meant to encourage buy in.
Has no relation to reality, the truth, making sense, etc.
… But, it works on rubes, dullard marks, cult members, weak willed / low self esteem people with decent reliability.
These are just more Trump University or Trump Steaks to him.
Demented incompetent salesman brain, or what’s left of it.
Yep, this is a distraction from the stock market melt down.
As is his proclamation that April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and then goes on to ONLY talk about trans kids.
Don’t give him so much credit. Everything he does is credited as an intentional distraction from whatever it is that he just did.
That would also mean that he had planned everything in detail to fit together. That’s beyond his capacities. The recession was obviously unplanned; he’s already struggling to keep the whole thing under control. The complexity of human society is overwhelming him.
Yeah, it’s pretty tiresome. “This is a distraction!!!” No, literally everything he does is a horrible mess and he just keeps doing more.
Which market meltdown?
?
Yep. There’s this strategy called “pump and dump.” It’s often used by the wealthy to inflate stock prices before cratering them to buy at discount.
Idiots like you see line go up for a while, and think:
- I’ll buy at a discount as it falls
Instead of noticing the “pump” part of the scheme, also visible in your image.
Unless you want to point to some economic windfall happening between 2022 and 24 that explains all that growth, it is very likely from downsizing, buybacks, and off market darkpool price manipulation. (Which now happens regularly these days with every blue chip stock around 5pm).
Historically, Tariffs lead to a recession in 1830 (15% Tariffs), a Depression in 1930 (20% Tariffs), and now with a 40% plus Tariffs on basically everything, we are likely to see the complete disembowlment of the US Dollar and all the market dominance we built with it.
You better get your completely misplaced premature celebration out now, because you are going to be eating crow the rest of this year, and far into the future. There’s no amount of bullshit Trump spin that will bring our markets back. We are unquestionably fucked.
I will gladly check back here in 8 months to provide an updated chart, seeing as you will certainly be too embarrassed to do so.
Idiots like you
Here I am posting a joke, and you gotta be an ass and not even understand what I posted. We’re literally saying the same thing.
That certainly wasn’t clear.
Maybe not. But it’s a literal picture of the stock market melting down.
Either way, if it’s not clear, maybe people should err on the side of not being a dick to a stranger on the internet.
It’s a picture of the stock market melting down…
…from a time frame of 2021 and on.
Which implies the growth from that time until now is somewhat meaningful in comparison to the dip that specific time frame does its best to minimize.
Which to me, seems intentional. Kinda like you’re being a dick. Which is why I responded like one in turn.
If that was all an accident:
Then apologies for calling you an idiot and listing in detail all the ways I agree with you about the market melting.
Also true

Why would the president of the United States even need to or care about buying his own residency card?
In case he accidentally revokes it, because he’s a senile fucking moron.
To sell it later because he thinks it’ll be a collector’s item. His only thoughts are ever about making money.
He could wake up tomorrow in a Venezuelan prison form ‘accidently’ being deported, since he made it so that’s a thing now
“24h” was equivalent to “maybe during this term”, so 2 weeks could mean within the next 2 decades
Like infrastructure week!
Has anyone seen his birth certificate‽
Well, my first thought was that he did it to cover Melania 😂
This is our actual present reality, people. Resist the urge to look away, it will still be there.
Holy fuck.
We’re so fucking cooked.
Country for sale! Buy now!
And it’s a going out of business fire sale.
Held in a flaming dumpster
Hey, be fair! We’re not on fire at the moment.
Speak for yourself, flameless.
Is there his ass on the back side of the card?
no, it’s on the front
It has his face on it, so it already has an ass on it.
I think people with 5mil could probably get in a lot cheaper.
And 5 million today is only half a million in purchasing power two generations ago. And even less three generations ago.
So basically we are talking about middle class as it used to be defined. Problem in the USA is, very few people now have this money; so quite rightly it seems out of reach for many
Ah yes, pay $5m to live where other people get deported despite their legal status. Only a fucking moron will get one.
You’re just mad trump discovered an infinite money glitch for government revenues. Sell someone a visa for $5 mil, kick them out for no reason because you can, make them pay another $5 mil to come back, rinse and repeat.
If it’s still honored, it would appreciate in value in four years.
The dementia gets more and more apparent
