I mean now we’re just in fantasy land. No one has offered the option to buy citizenship like that. Trump offered to let people buy green cards or whatever fancy name he gave them (still a green card).
After that it takes at minimum 5 years. No indication that is being sped up in any way for anyone. It’s not even possible to speed it up under current law, not that the administration wouldn’t try. But in this case they’ve given no indication of doing so.
The green card thing was really just a pathetic attempt to collect revenue since taxes have been slashed to untenable levels. Wealthy people wouldn’t even want citizenship. They vote with money, not with ballots.
Not that these Boers are really rich or anything and there’s not enough of them to effect voting even if they could. This is virtue signalling to white supremacists. In fact I’d bet a lot of them will leave soon or end up homeless. They’re being brought in without any plans or preparation and no job opportunities waiting for them. Mostly just a quick photo opportunity followed by a “good luck!”
But oh well sucks to suck. Hope you all end up homeless back in South Africa too because a black family moved into your house while you were gone.
I just don’t understand the need to fantasize about things that have not happened and that have no indication they will happen when we already have a mountain of very real problems occurring
How long does it take to go through the refugee process to become a citizen? They can’t vote until then, right?
It used to be 10 years after you got green card.
