2. I seriously doubt people will be lining up at the Washington Passport Agency to get this nauseating horror.

At least they are not forcing the horrific thing on people. If they did that, I think we would have had a class action for Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress (IIED) from all true patriots who needed to get or renew their passport this year. And frankly, I bet that is precisely why they are so "limited."

They've convinced the felon this makes them "special." The passport authorities know the truth. MAGA diehards that want these things make up such a tiny fraction of the traveling public. Everybody else who they try to foist one on at the Washington Passport Agency will say Are You Kidding Me??? No Way. Standard Design please.

From Gemini

According to reports from NBC News and CNN, you can choose your design based on how and where you apply:

Washington Passport Agency: The Trump-themed design will be the default option for those who apply in person at this specific agency while supplies last.

Online and Other Locations: All other passport-issuing locations and online renewal options will continue to use the standard U.S. passport design.

Cost: There is no additional fee for the limited-edition version.

The design, released to mark the United States' 250th anniversary, features the president’s portrait and signature
