Howard Lutnick Plays His ‘Trump Card,’ And The Jokes Just Write Themselves
Images
Critics dealt a winning hand of mocking jokes after Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick shared an image of a so-called “Trump Card” on X on Sunday. Lutnick posted a photo of what appeared to be a card that is issued to wealthy foreign nationals under the administration’s fast-track permanent residency program, for a hefty fee, of course. “Trump Card,” he wrote.

Others used the post to revive criticism of Trump and Lutnick over their ties to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. And more suggested Lutnick was referring to the “Trump Card” the president controversially played to persuade FIFA to overturn U.S. men’s national team forward Folarin Balogun’s World Cup red-card suspension. It's a laminated paper card?Even my Apple Credit Card is metal!I'm going to start counterfeiting Trump Cards right now!I'll sell mine for WAY less than five million!DM me for prices! You’re literally a card-carrying dipshit trumpanzee. Looks like something I would've made in high school with some construction paper and a laminating machine. LOL! Such a weird cult. Laminated like a library card https://t.co/mToLXBAaSE They are bragging about the president interfering in the world cup. https://t.co/azHDiOns7h Lower prices? Nope.Affordable health care? Nope.The Trump administration is busy selling $5 million “Gold Cards” to Russian, Chinese, and Saudi oligarchs.That’s apparently the priority. https://t.co/TXt3D7lECc In the end, this won’t be the flex you think it is. Today I learned the Trump Card beats any FIFA red card 😂 https://t.co/DklO2norZE The only card that can replace a red card, under FIFA rules. Lucky to have the monopoly on them! https://t.co/T5EbqVMQnV By entering your email and clicking Sign Up, you're agreeing to let us send you customized marketing messages about us and our advertising partners.
