Trump speaks at GOP midterm convention in Dallas
Trump claims he will send $5,000 to every citizen if Republicans hold on to control of Congress
Trump has claimed he will send every citizen $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the US House and Senate. He provided no details about where he would source this money from or the legality of the incentive.
“So if the Republicans win, you win with us … it will be called the Trump dividend,” the president said.
He doesn’t pay his contractors. What makes you think you think he will pay you?
And just like that, he most likely closed the gap, alot of these races will now be neck and neck
Obviously it’s horseshit, but what matters is that he said it, now the meme will spread through society and dummies will go to the polls over it
Isn’t this literally what chuds think communists want to do? Give people free money for doing nothing??
His base loves to get grifted. It’s the same attitude Americans had about being tricked into leaving the Barnum & Bailey circuses.
Aren’t our taxes already going up $5 to fund Epstein’s war?
You are the biggest sucker in the universe if you believe this one.
Despite the fact that hes been saying $2k checks since before he got elected, which have never materialized, there are morons out there that will absolutely believe it.
“$2k if you elect me!1! $2500 for all the doge money we saved!1! $5k if you vote red in the midterms!1!1” Pretty soon it will be $10k if we let him win a third term.
People are so fucking abysmally stupid. The fact that the offer has to be $5k now due to rent increases, price increases, inflation, etc. is more telling than the fact that hes trying this bit again in the first place
What if it happens, but hard emphasis on “citizens” and you’ve gotta submit to an ICE screening to receive the money? They sure would need to ramp up ICE recruitment for that
They could even say like “the foreigners are registering for the money, we don’t have enough for everyone because of the fraud” when they can’t actually afford to send them to everyone too.
What’s a couple hundred billion dollars between friends?
money up front
At least a down-payment to show you’re serious. A good $1500-$2000 now usable before the election and the rest later.
On the other hand, this is extremely funny because this act of desperation shows that he’s at least somewhat aware of how unpopular he is and will be cooked in the midterms.
He should promise everyone GTA 6
By that time, it’ll probably cost $5000 to get a PS5.
I wonder what the lives of people gullible enough to believe this are like, from their perspective.
Not great, but blessedly always due to someone else.
No wonder he was praising Indian elections 2 weeks ago lol.
What happened in India? Something similar?
Giving away tax money after winning is pretty much a promise in every election nowadays.
More of the government budget is now spent on giving away bribes for votes than education.
Will this be another Biden bux situation?
At least it’s fucking interesting. It’s about time they did something that at least registers as not the stupidest, cruelest idea humanity can muster. Will you have to look very hard to find that they extract the $5000 from the orphan crushing machine? No! But at least you get a brief moment of a headline that isn’t diarrhea forever.
