Jokes work because they are exagerations of the truth. So when a comedian makes fun his immigrant parents they are exaggerating what is true to get a laugh.
Trump is exaggerating here as $5000 could buy a hamburger at Mar A lago but the element that is true, that makes the joke work is '...but do not come as you are too poor'.
The joke is an exaggeration on 'you cannot afford it here and should not come... because you are poor'.
