This is very funny, because the kind of people who want Trump's face smeared all over their official documents are probably not the kind of people who do a lot of international travel.

    When I've traveled internationally, both during his first presidency and recently, people would occasionally ask me what I thought about him. I would tell them and they would often say something like "that's what everyone I've talked to seems to think," in a somewhat accusatory way (or maybe my embarrassment makes me a little paranoid,) like we are not being honest.

    And I basically say what you just said. Sure, there are probably a few trump supporting liars among those you've spoken to, but for the most part, trump supporters are incurious people, scared of everything, and not interested in experiencing new things and places.

    A trump supporter (he would just say Republican, but there is no difference imo) I work with just took his family on an international vacation for the first time about a month ago. He went to Costa Rica and stayed in a resort. When he got back and people asked him about it he would say "it's great, the resort had everything you need, there were lots of English TV stations with American programming, tons of 'normal' food, and everybody in stores spoke English" (in the little strip of stores right outside the resort designed to give just the right amount of 'local flavor' without being scary). That's about as adventurous as I imagine the average magat to be.

    But they’ll actually GET one. Which, once the SAVE America Act passes thanks to the elimination of the filibuster thanks to this dumb ballroom, will allow them to still vote in our final contested election.

    He’s not a smart man but his handlers are.

    The commemorative passport will be the default document for people applying in person at the Washington office, although those who want a standard passport will be able to get one by applying online or outside Washington, officials said.

    What do you mean applying online? Last I knew, you could only fill/print out documents online, and applied at the post office.

    Guy thinks he is the country, between this and the currency he wants his name on.

    I was at a national park last month, and they kept trying to sell me the pass since I'm old enough for the discount; I told the cashier that I would rather pay full price every single day I was there than have that garbage in my wallet. She was sympathetic.

    What happens to the legal validity of the passport if that page was missing?

    If I cover his face with a sticker of Snufflelufulcus does it invalidate my passport?

    Can I pay extra not to have to see his ugly mug on my passport?

    Glad I renewed mine early. Now if only I had a work visa from somewhere else to put in it....

    Imagine the ego to think you, the current president, should be commemorated for the country's 250th birthday. Shouldn't it be Washington? Or someone or something associated with the founding of the country?

    (Note: I'm not saying Washington was a good person, just that he is associated with the beginning of the country)
