Donald Trump is promising a thousand dollars to each American family as part of his strategy for the midterm elections. Tiago André Lopes's comment on CNN Portugal analyses this promise as a high-risk political move.
The former president wants Americans to vote in the midterms as if Trump himself were on the ballot, thus mobilizing the Republican base for these legislative elections.
Tiago André Lopes, CNN Portugal commentator, explains that this bet could have a significant impact on the electoral race, although it represents a considerable risk for the Republican strategy.
The promise of five thousand dollars emerges as a political mobilization tool, at a time when Trump seeks to maintain his influence over the American electorate even without being a direct candidate in these elections.
