'What!?' MSNBC host baffled by Trump's 'magic math' scheme to raise trillions of dollars
Raw StoryMSNBC host Ali Vitali was at a loss for words very early Thursday morning after watching a clip of Donald Trump pitch selling citizenship visas for millions, claiming he could raise trillions of dollars to the point where the U.S. government would be sitting on excess money. In a televised Cabinet meeting on Wednesday, the president riffed on his proposal, and claimed he could sell millions of the high-priced $5 million "gold cards," adding they will "sell like crazy." Trump suggested that the new revenue generated from his proposal could be used to pay off the country’s debt and asserted "If we sell a million, that’s $5 trillion dollars,” before continuing, "If we sell 10 million, which is possible, 10 million highly productive people coming in or people that we're going to make productive. He then added the caveat, "Now I don't know that we're going to sell that many, maybe we won't sell many at all, but I think we're going to sell a lot."
