US President Donald Trump on Friday unveiled a rendering of a new limited-edition US passport to mark the country’s 250th anniversary of independence. The commemorative passport features Trump’s portrait, making it one of the most personal government-issued designs associated with a sitting president.
Sharing the design on his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote, “The U.S.A.’s New Passport, which says, ‘Welcome, but be good!’” The passport mock-up shows a stern-faced Trump leaning on his desk, alongside his signature. The background features the text of the Declaration of Independence, and the portrait appears to be based on an image taken by White House photographer Daniel Torok, AFP reports.
A Presidential Touch That Sparks Attention
The opposite page of the passport carries a painting of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, along with the words “United States of America 250.” The White House also shared the same design on social media, calling it the “PATRIOT PASSPORT.”
