“President Trump pledged a $5,000 payout to U.S. adults on Wednesday, but only if Republicans hold onto their majority in Congress come November,” The Hill reports.
Said Trump: “Here is my promise: if the Republicans win the House of Representatives and the United States Senate, both of them … because of our tremendous strength and success economically, I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States of America for $5,000.”
”The legality of this disbursal is unclear.”
Bloomberg: Trump’s dividend promise would cost more than $1 trillion.
