Speaking at The White House, Trump also explained to reporters how funds generated from the initiative would provide a “tremendous amount of money.”
“All funds go to the United States government,” he said.
“Could be a tremendous amount of money. You will also be able to help people like this. Keep as an example just one example… it’s somewhat like a green card, but with big advantages over a green card,” he added.

Another option, the Trump Corporate Gold Card, allows companies to sponsor one or more employees by paying a nonrefundable $15,000 DHS processing fee per employee and providing a $2 million gift after vetting, the website states. The program includes a 1% annual maintenance fee, a 5% transfer fee for switching sponsored employees, and potential additional State Department fees depending on individual circumstances.
