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.

    Sure, as atrocious as these rules of war are, I get the point and was wrong about the initial 30 days limit

    I still think my original point stands, Trump has openly broken many laws and has never been held accountable (and that is not counting the SCOTUS ruling that basically says he can do whatever he wants as president) so expecting that the orange pedophile will not do something because it is illegal, is naive at best when the most that can be conjured against that argument is that if he does something illegal, some time later after the damage is all done, he may have to backtrack and still suffer no legal consequences.
