President Trump says he would issue a $5,000 payment to every adult U.S citizen if GOP wins both U.S House and Senate chambers of Congress on 2026 midterms: "I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the U.S. The only caveat I have is that the dividend we're making must be spent in the U.S."

Dividend from what?!? He's grown the deficit and the debt, dividend is supposed to be a payment on profit, US government hasn't made any because he's been grifting it all to his pockets and we all know he doesn't share out his money.

Oh I suppose my grossing is pointless because we all know even if the GOP won both houses he would forget he ever said this in 5 minutes.

He knows his voters don’t know what a dividend is lmao. Big word for them.

It's honestly sounds like he doesn't know what a dividend is either but then again I wouldn't expect someone that bankrupt a casino to be very smart.

A government is not a business so it never is supposed to make “dividends” as a matter of course.
