Some of the comments I have read so far: “Let's buy more rich people”, “Calling all drug cartels”, “it has never been done before because it should never be done.
Immigration law has ALWAYS had a legal entry category based upon someone's willingness to significantly invest in the US. I don't know if Trump's people are suggesting a change in the investment amount or what, but this basic concept has been in US law for many years.
It is also part of immigration law to require that those wishing to come to the US NOT BE A BURDEN on the American taxpayer. Which is why they require a citizen who will financially vouch for the immigrant, essentially being a co-signer on eligibility. There needs to be a job lined up, or someone willing to say they will personally pay the living expenses of the new entrant.
If Orange Man Bad declared he loves breathing, I wonder how many leftists would self-asphyxiate?
Worth a try, don't you think? :/
Absolutely!

None of this suggests there can't be vetting and security checks, cash-up-front or no.
And hopefully they will be real vetting and security checks, and not the "rigorous" background checks performed by the Biden Administration.
Y'know, the ones that allowed in radicalized terrorists, who then planned and committed attacks.
Leftist history started when they say it started.
And, history started on November 5th, 2024.
