Everyone who does submit for a new passport should explicitly request a picture of Obama instead.

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.

Kind of the point,. though, not? Punish those that hate trump by forcing them to have an image of trump on them

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.

Do it now; I don’t think this shit hits before July.

Can you renew early?

I read that it's optional, you can still request a normal passport, and that it would be the DC office that first issues these new ones.

Renewals can be done online if you meet certain criteria, I got my passport card renewed recently and did it all on my phone, including taking the picture.

Cant forget about the National Park passes, either

Hey, he’s not in jail yet…

🤢🤮

What if he acquires a bespoke little toothbrush mustache and a forehead tattoo that says "pedo" all done in ink suspiciously similar to what's in my favorite pen?

Unfortunately, it's then altered and likely not valid anymore. That said, maybe a little black smudge under his nose will not go amiss.

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.

If I understand correctly, this face is only a passports from Washington?

There's like 200 others to choose from, move wisely and decisively

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 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.

The American English equivalent is Trump's a Cunt.

Enh. Not all the people all of the time.

It wasn't meant to last. It won't

Lovely depictions of a doctor and a mayor

Countries can refuse a passport for any reason.

If you don't need a valid passport than yes, you can totally do it.

Passport pages are numbered. Ripping one out may get you detained and questioned somewhere.

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.

And yet somehow appropriate,

I feel like that's very charitable to America as a concept and to the "founding fathers". 👀

I read in the original comments that you'll only get this at the Washington DC office and only if you ask for it, so you and your sons are probably safe from having a demented fascist dictator in your passport for now, so that's something at least 🤷🏻

You can bet your bottom dollar that they'll try to make it the national default if it's profitable enough for them and their owner donors and they don't receive enough well-deserved pushback for sure, though.
