    My guess is the passport will not be released with his image or, at the least, with that slogan on it. I think his tweet is getting enough push back by folks asking if he's a moron and knows how a passport works.

      "Welcome but be good" is a fine reply to the open border enthusiasts. Maybe "Welcome but be respectful" would be an even better response.

      Education is extremely important.

        As a sign at the border it would make sense. In the pockets of US citizens not so much.

        Lo, no accord shall bloom 'twixt us and that realm, save they do kneel in token of their utter, soul-deep shame! No parley shall we hold, no treaty sign, until their will is broken, and their strength doth lie as dust before our might. -DJT, 3/6/26

            Do the passports actually say that? Or did trump just post on truth social that they say that but they really don’t? An AI assist search says it’s the latter.

              Saying 'Welcome but don't be an asshole' would seem like a reasonable request. And for non-fluent English speakers the photo would give them an idea of what an asshole is.

              I was only joking

                @Doctor Phibes Quite. It would turn the passport into a sort of remedial picture book for executive cognition.

                Not a travel document exactly. More an illustrated lesson in who the administration thinks the asshole is.

                    Who even knows anymore. He posted a picture of him on the passport, but who even knows if that's not just a fake image. What a wonderful time of credibility we live in.

                    My guess is he was testing the waters a bit, and realized he didn't know what a passport was. His immigrant wife should, which holds a certain level of irony in itself...

                      Perhaps he's envious of our Sovereign, who technically issues our passports, and so is the only person who doesn't need one. Our Sovereign's image appears on all passports so it would be a little strange giving yourself permission & authority.

                      The Sovereign is also the only person not required to have a driving licence or pass a test.

                      Funny thing about these forms of ID is that, although the driving licence has your current address on it and must by law be kept up to date, the passport doesn't yet still seems to bear more weight as the ultimate ID.
