Donald Trump’s “gold card” visa, where a foreigner can shell out at least $1 million to legally live and work in the U.S., has been approved for one person, said Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Thursday — appearing to fall a bit short of an earlier claim.
After it launched in December, Lutnick said that the government had sold $1.3 billion “worth” in just several days, as Trump stood by holding up the gilded ticket and said, “essentially it’s the green card on steroids.”
Lutnick did not address the apparent discrepancy in an exchange with a congresswoman at Thursday’s committee hearing.
Until such a time as someone actually stops him from doing whatever the fuck he wants, he absolutely does.
