Trump offers every American $5,000 If Republicans Win The Midterms

Donald Trump pledged to give every adult U.S. citizen a $5,000 dividend if Republicans keep control of the House and Senate, a promise he made at a GOP midterm convention in Texas. Paying 240 million adults would cost about $1.2 trillion, far exceeding the $284 billion customs revenue collected between January 2025 and June 2026 and requiring an additional $1.08 trillion after tariff refunds.
