Donald Trump pledged Wednesday to send every American adult $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections, an extraordinary gambit to reverse his party’s sagging fortunes in November.
The dubious promise would likely cost more than $1 trillion and require congressional approval, and would further exacerbate the country’s nearly $1.8 trillion annual budget deficit and concerns about inflation.


Well he has a great reputation for paying people.
I have family in Southern New Jersey where he absolutely ruined people by not paying them for building his bullshit, gaudy casinos. Yet the whole region is crazy for him. Stupid is as stupid does.
Where are my DOGE checks?!
The same place the rest of his promises are at.
What are you talking about? He loves to pay people… with other people’s money
Let’s print $1T dollars, meanwhile my assets get a boost from the inflation!
