    We're all too disconnected and self absorbed to do anything like that here. People with legal status are rounded up each day and it makes no difference.

    What if you’re a Somalia immigrant with $1 Million? Are you still considered “Filthy, dirty, disgusting ridden with crime. The only thing they’re good at is going after ships." Or does $1 Million change that?

    Look most of us totally admit he’s a Grifter, we just want him done with and to move on. But what I don’t get is he is singularly the worst person for any Presidency of any country, I wouldn’t want him running my enemies country. It’s cruel and inhumane. How have we not had any success with impeachment or straight up arresting him??? Is the whole political system is corrupted? How can we fix this?

    I can't wait for him to launch premium and platinum citizenship cards for existing residents.

    Your current citizenship plan covers the basic constitutional item: 1 article, 4 amendments. Upgrade to premium citizenship to unlock freedom of speech and voting rights.

    When it was 5 million my question was could I sell my citizenship back and move to another country? At only 1 million, I would have to give it much more thought.

    Honestly, citizenship should not be something sold. Just because they have money does not mean they will be a good citizen.

    Just a reminder, a lot of this is Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation and a bunch od other racists, greedy people in the background who are backing or creating these policies. Hes just the figure head and is stealing every red cent he can before he is ousted.

    So this kind of stuff doesnt end if we get rid of him. We have to get rid of them all and get their filthy money out of our politics.
