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.
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.
Isn’t this literally what chuds think communists want to do? Give people free money for doing nothing??
It’s interesting that he understands so much better than Democrats how politics works
Republicans are shrewdly caring less and less about optics, but they have democrats still clinging to it to their detriment; democrats still think they need to appeal to people who’ll never vote for them
He should promise everyone GTA 6
By that time, it’ll probably cost $5000 to get a PS5.
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.
something something dems buying votes with social programsHe never pays his bills. 🤣
Didn’t he literally send people 2k? And the dems promised 2k and didn’t
Not that both sides should be [redacted]
I got 1500 not 2000 if i remember correctly
Yes, but that wasn’t really “promised”, it was more to prevent the bottom from falling out of the economy. This time it’s just an empty promise, that he has no actual reason to try and fulfill. IMO, he cares less about the economy because he doesn’t have to pretend to care as much.
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
its funny how he is now resorting to bribing voters now
also related mini-slop. there is a crosspost of this article in another instance and there is a bluemaga complaning that it shouldnt be shared because its helping trump by reporting on his bullshit https://mander.xyz/post/58018689
with opposition like this who needs allies lmao
liberals seem to really believe in the secret. y’know, that oprah bullshit.
If I remember correctly from my comparative religion class, it’s a form of associative magic
Why are you fuckers promoting this shitstain?
Should I feel guilty?
lol no, he is mad that people are reporting on anything about trump
We’re gonna finally revalue the Iraqi dinar when we win the midterms folks, believe me!
Cool, but if you want to buy my vote, you also have to send me the money that Biden owed me too.
10k minimum
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.
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 doesn’t pay his contractors. What makes you think you think he will pay you?
This is extremely illegal, but who’s going to stop him?
It’s only illegal if he actually intends to pay people.
He would never.
Nah bribery is illegal whether you actually pay or just promise to pay. However maybe it doesn’t matter, apparently the president can do whatever he wants and it will just be magically legal.
the president can do whatever he wants and it will just be magically legal.
Always been true, provided they follow a simple axiom
Either have Congress, don’t be an asshole, or be incredibly charismatic, but you can’t be an unlikable asshole who’s team is not winning
you can’t be an unlikable asshole who’s team is not winning
Democrats had both House and Senate for the early part of his tenure and the Senate for the latter half
And while he was an asshole, I’d posit that to your average American he was one of the more anonymous twerps to hold the office up until everyone started lighting him on fire for either being too pro Israel or not pro Israel enough (which ended with him being supplanted by his VP as the party nominee)
I mean what he did when he refused to drop out and run a primary when every poll showed him losing to Trump was just so incredibly shitty.
At the end of his term he was absolutely an unlikeable asshole who made sure his party would lose.
I think we’re in agreement here, my point was he was pretty unremarkable until he made it much more known to the public at large how much of a flaming asshole he was at the back end of his term which is when his party started to throw him out the door, e.g. he violated the axiom at that point (and that itself says a lot, considering how much liberals love to make principled stands with their losers)
Also - isn’t it very roughly a trillion dollars?
It is, but just the act of saying this is wildly illegal.
In the GOP SCOTUS’s immunity ruling they declared that criminal law doesn’t apply to the president.
Oh yeah. I forgot about that shit. Jfc this reality sure is something.
Some dem pols (Jim Clyburn etc) have a prospective plan to stop the toxic GOP justices. It’s “packing” the court so it’s expanded vastly to 13. Of course that creates the razor-thin dem majority of 7-6. In theory - a dem president and congress could start work on that idiotic plan in 2029 and then actually do it that year. ~5 years later with a GOP president and congress - news could break that Sotomayor had cancer that she hid (aka "did not disclose). She didn’t want to resign and take one for the team.
The cancer got far worse. It’s has spread to her brain and soon enough she resigns. Within weeks it’s 7-6 for the GOP again! So it’s time to vote harder again!
Pack the court to an absurdist degree, simply amend 28 USC § 1 as follows:
The Supreme Court of the United States shall consist of a Chief Justice of the United States and
eight800,000,000,000,000,000 associate justices, anysix600,000,000,000,000,000 of whom shall constitute a quorum.make every US citizen a supreme court justice
Trump is protected by the “no one is going to do a goddamn thing about it” clause
Didn’t he say something about there not being any money available to the people because the US is in wartime? Funny how the money just pops up into existence like that.
