Doesn't make sense. This should obviously be an NFT. Did the intern they tasked with this not know how to setup a new memecoin?
I would highly recommend you go to almost any other country than this one right now.
The fuckhead is damned conceited it boggles the mind how anyone can even get near him
And when you buy one you get a complimentary membership to Trump steaks. Trump steaks, when you want to eat ass without actually eating ass.
Wasn't it $1 million a week ago?
That was before the tariffs lol
When you are a 34 times convicted felon President, they just let you do it.
Grab 'em by the economy
Many countries do this to bring in wealthy investors. In those countries there are requirements to invest in local economy, not sure about this one.
The wealthy use these to travel every couple of month, allowing them to skip residency taxes by never being anywhere long enough.
However a US one is just dumb, because US tax laws are one of the only ones that will tax you, as a resident, when you are not in the US. So the types of people who typically buy these won't go near it.

If I was rich enough to do that I'd pay an extra 5 million to not have his ugly fuckin face on it.
They should have to pay me $5m to own a card featuring his ugly mug
Doesn’t this need an act of Congress to enact?
Half the shit he’s done has required congressional authority.
Congress is full of fascist shit lickers and is fully complicit in all of these violations to the constitution. They could have impeached him weeks ago for setting up DOGE or enacting tariffs without congressional approval, instead they sit back and act like they can do nothing.
Buy the ticket, take the ride, Murica!
