President Donald Trump announced a new path to U.S. citizenship: a pricey gold card.

The U.S. is going to “sell” gold cards for $5 million, Trump announced in the Oval Office Tuesday.

“We're going to be putting a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you [permanent resident] Green Card privileges, plus it's going to be a route to citizenship,” the president said. He branded it as “somewhat like a Green Card, but at a higher level of sophistication.”

“Wealthy people will be coming into our country by buying this card,” he continued. “They'll be wealthy and they'll be successful and they'll be spending a lot of money and paying a lot of taxes and employing a lot of people. And we think it's going to be extremely successful and never been done before.”

Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick clarified the Trump administration plans to terminate a somewhat similar EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program and “replace it with the Trump gold card.”

The EB-5 program allows investors to apply for permanent residence in the U.S. if they “make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States” and plan to create or preserve 10 permanent full-time jobs.

The EB-5 program was “full of nonsense, make-believe and fraud,” Lutnick continued. “It was a way to get a green card that was low priced.”

Once vetted, gold card holders “can invest in America and we can use that money to reduce our deficit,” he added.

The president predicted that the gold card will bring in “very high level people” who create jobs. With these cards, “you're getting big taxpayers, big job producers, and we'll be able to sell maybe a million of these cards, maybe more than that,” Trump said.

All these threats and penalties will only strengthen the rest to avoid dealing eith the US. Those companies dependent on US market van relocate there. As far as east asia is concerned, the biggest market by a huge margin is now china. And in middle east, the biggest buyer of their oil and gas is also china.

The insignificant nobody me once had respect for you as a sane & rational person, despite your religious leanings or the middle stance you took, but sadly not anymore...yet still live in hope that times change, so too will Human minds....

You currently only provide FALSEHOODS to others.

a) The biggest market is NOT China.

While it has Trillions in GDP-USD$37T & yet to fall due to tariffs, it has 1.4 Billion hungry citizen mouths to feed.

Do the maths & think - how much would 37 Trillion be to provide even basic necessary social expenditure such as healthcare, education, infrastructure, research/development, etc, etc, AS compared to USA, a highly educated & innovative, resource rich civilization based upon the Rule of Law, with only a mere population of 300 million, GDP at USD$29 Trillion & yet are the biggest consumerist society on Earth?

By all means, avoid USA, & hope that the supposed 'biggest Markets' will spend as much as Americans, with their pathetic average salaries per month a China citizen makes, more so their 99% whom only earns USD$600/mth & will buy even an EV car that costs USD$16,000 from its own country, let alone other basic IMPORTED necessities in life....

China's days are numbered. Please continue with your delusions.

Now we wait for China to be stripped of its 'Most Favoured Nation' status. Then the naval blockades will happen.

China (PRC) is a legacy of Henry Kissinger, LKY's mentor-buddy. It should join him in his grave.
