US midterms: Trump's 5,000-dollar-per-adult pledge

EuroTopics14 September 2026 at 11:34

Donald Trump promised to pay $5,000 (approximately 4,300 euros) to every adult citizen of the United States if the Republicans win the midterm elections in November. The American president made this promise during the Republican Party Convention in Dallas.

The politician referred to this payment as a dividend for citizens, saying: "If the Republicans win, you win with us and get $5,000."

The European press questions how exactly this "Trump dividend" would be financed, raising doubts about the economic viability of this promise. The article does not present details on the source of funding for this massive payment to all American adults.
