Oh no. My passport is about to expire and I do need it renewed. I can't have that man's face on my gd passport
It's only from in person applicants at the DC office. As long as you don't go there to renew it, you won't get his dumb pedo face on yours.
Good to know. That's what I get for not R'ing the F'ing Article
If you wanted to be extra safe, you could just "lose" it now.
Don't have to lose it, can just renew it early
TIL that R'ing means reading and not raping.
I never rape the fucking article.
Phew! I was concerned for the article's well-being.
The article has ways of shutting that down.
Unless you're a president in the rapeublican party.
If I understand correctly, this face is only a passports from Washington?
There was another guy in the late 1930's to 1940's in Germany who also put his face on everything.
This is how I assume a Russian passport would look.
America as a whole is delusional and mental ill.
Enh. Not all the people all of the time.
Just the overwhelming majority most of the time. Trumpism is just a symptom. Theyve all been sickos for a long long time.
It wasn't meant to last. It won't
*USA
These will be collected decades from now like some people collect Nazi memorabilia.
Can you choose to get a real passport instead?
There's like 200 others to choose from, move wisely and decisively
Celebrating the start with the person who ended it?
the point is to make travel for people who don't like him even more pain in the ass
any population that can travel freely can protest
any population that can't freely travel cain't
As noted elsewhere, there's only 25-30k total being produced and only for people who apply in person in DC. You're not going to get one of these unexpectedly.
I mean, odds are somebody is going to apply in person in DC without realizing it's a thing. Just not most people.
I'm guessing they would ask you first (and the office would be slathered in Trump-Passport posters).
I am somewhat surprised it's not just a 'which one would you like'. I wouldn't have thought the logistical concerns would be that major?
I think the point is to make it more likely that people who like Trump will get passports, and less likely for people who don't like Trump. Then when you say that voters need to have passports to vote, you have a structural advantage.
There's a german word for this: Führerkult.
A common denominator of dictatorships and facist regimes of all kind.
The American English equivalent is Trump's a Cunt.
This is such typical dumb dictator shit -- Assad, Saddam, Pol Pot, Qaddafi, etc. Dictators do this all the time, look at my picture, look at my statue, look at me look at me aren't I so powerful
Isn't the image of his 'stern look' taken from his mugshot?
Lovely depictions of a doctor and a mayor
No fucking thanks
This is something that will eventually rise in value. The same way as nazi memorabilia did.
Yeah HAARRRRD PASS
If the US can decide my passport isn't valid because it has an F on it, other countries should be able to decide any passport with his shit smear on it is also invalid.
Countries can refuse a passport for any reason.
I had to renew mine this year and the first thing I did when I got it was to check for bullshit like this.
Gross
Appear weak when you are strong, appear strong when you are weak.
If we get this in the updated passport: we can and will rip this page out
If you don't need a valid passport than yes, you can totally do it.
Hhhh fuck your right… thankfully we have a brand new passport already and hopefully when it’s needing a new one the page would be redesigned or better yet removed =w=;;
Passport pages are numbered. Ripping one out may get you detained and questioned somewhere.
And the passport will most likely be declared invalid.
Didn’t know that. That just makes the whole thing more annoying hhh
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
the entire country is a fucking joke.
edit: I know the above is a flippant, throw-away comment, but jfc... anyone that supports the murder, the grift, the petty bullshit and threat of the boot on your face is an unserious human being. I am ashamed and disgusted to be trapped in this rathole with them.
I hope the world can continue on without the USA, because we have fucked this planet without a kiss and are now in the process of showing our ass to the world before we jump out of the fucking window.
fuck.
Would be funny if other countries denied entry to this passport
