$5,000 for every adult — if Republicans win the election.
Donald Trump has made another major promise ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.
If Republicans maintain control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, Trump promises to pay every adult U.S. citizen a $5,000 “Trump Dividend.”
There is just one condition: according to Trump, the money would have to be spent in the United States.
And here’s the interesting part — this is far from the first “dividend” that has been promised.
Since returning to the White House, Trump has already talked about:
Altogether, that’s already thousands of dollars in promised payments per person.
And how many of these large-scale “dividend” checks have Americans actually received so far?
Zero.
I wouldn’t count on that $5,000 just yet — and I certainly wouldn’t build it into the family budget.
