Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick ignited a flurry of online discussion after posting an image of a "Trump Card" on social media platform X on Sunday.
The image appeared to depict a card issued to wealthy foreign nationals as part of a fast-track permanent residency program, which requires a significant financial investment.
The post elicited varied responses from users. Some observers commented on the card's appearance, drawing comparisons to a "cheaply laminated library card." Others used the opportunity to resurface criticisms related to Lutnick and former President Donald Trump's past associations with Jeffrey Epstein.
Additionally, some users interpreted "Trump Card" metaphorically, referencing a controversial instance where Trump reportedly intervened to influence a decision concerning a U.S. men's national team player's World Cup suspension.
