“We’re going to be putting a price on that card of about $5 million and that’s going to give you green card privileges, plus it’s going to be a route to citizenship,” Trump said while announcing the programme.
“Wealthy people will be coming into our country by buying this card," he added.
Trump's Commerce Secretary said, “Basically, everyone I meet who is not an American is going to want to buy this card if they have the fiscal capacity."
“These are going to be great people who are going to come and bring businesses and opportunity to America, and they’re going to pay $5 million. If there are 200,000 people who pay, that’s a trillion dollars. That pays for everything," Lutnick added.
