With the midterms around the corner, the affordability crisis could have major consequences for Republicans at the ballot box. Gas prices are surging and inflation is rising, but Trump says the economy is “the greatest” America has ever seen. But just in case, he’s now promising to send every adult citizen in the country a check for $5,000 if Republicans hold the House and Senate. “It’s meant to be a distraction,” says Rep. Jim McGovern. “It’s going to cost like $1.3 trillion. I don’t know where they’re going to get the money from…they have screwed up this economy royally.”

I can’t believe I never used to vote in mid term elections. I’ve made alot of voting mistakes. No, I never voted for trump. That was never a mistake.
Oh those promise cheques were sent out. They went to Trump and all of his rich buddies. When he talks about the economy and everything else he promises, he’s talking only to people in his tax bracket.
Natalie only shows him the good polls, Fox propaganda repeats. He continues to play the con man & thinks we believe him. Not only ignorant of the facts, but stupid & LOW IQ, as well.
God is taking care of all not Trump. 😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Trump lies Everytime that his mouth is moving
I got checks from Biden, but never from trump.
There's a reason it'll be after the. Midterms, he wants to claim wartime presidency
Milk toast Mike Johnson sends everyone home. You know Trump told him to do that to protect Kegsbreath.
Does Trump not know what his job description is ?
Think what our heating bills will be this winter. I'm on propane and hate it.
Down comes my thermostat.
My car was recently repod. I just couldn't do it anymore.
Lises from Trump wake up working people.
I genuinely sorry for what's happening in America but trump was not a good man before he became president and America voted for him anyways and now you guys are living in that nightmare
Bribing voters is illegal for government officials and can be punished by impeachment!!! Katie Phang needs to sue Trump for breaking his Presidential Oath of Office!
Trump is the Putin of America.
In trump world , the economy is good.
Don't worry, Trump knows everything. He will give you Americans 1,000,000.00 after the 2028 elections. 😂😂😂😂. Gullible sorry, IT MAGA😮
The man that said no more wars
Started one JUST FOR FUN.
You are right communist control by the black house
Democrates didn't even let their party vote for their presidential candidate. And now they are being overrun by Islam they filled the country with for illegal votes. So save your b.s. everything is still cheaper then under Biden.
Trump has ruined trade across the globe, ruined the economy and inflation is high
I donate Iead. everyone needs mineraIs to Iive, I think trump is short of Lead.
the worst president in history and his iconic presidential phrase. America was already truly great in my opinion. from bush, biden, obama it was really prosperous and alive, yea lots of economic and crazy hard times back then, but it was affordable, food was fair, people enjoyed thier jobs and careers. compared to what this pig has done now in this current state! I think goin back to a more normal world, or what we remembered as more normal, wouldn't be so bad.
I think the irony of his phrase make America great again will hopefully be passed on to a new leader to rebuild trump's broken America. love from 🇨🇦 proud to be Canadian.
Trump lies lies lies lies lies
What makes Donald Trump so dense , so foolish ?
“If you don’t obey my commands then you’re a communist”
To think they trying there hardest to steal the elections we the people .
In the same kind of twisted logic that we see today, the John Roberts-led Supremely Corrupt Court, against the concerns of many and certainly against the spirit of our Founders, decided to equate “free speech” with “unlimited contributions” to federal candidates and office-holders (Citizens United, 2010), then, a couple years later protecting those contributions from public disclosure, thus protecting what is clearly bribery, bribers and recipients of bribes. This eventually led to the Republican Party’s complete domination by the super-wealthy, causing systemic government paralysis and rampant corruption to enrich further the already rich that we now view as “normal” and, because money runs politics, the total control of all three branches and the corrupt Court by Republicans, in turn leading to the rise of a man who lies to the electorate while pandering to the billionaires who sustain the party that sustains him. The mortal flaw ratified by the corrupt John Roberts Court is now putting our entire country on the verge of utter and complete destruction by a madman the Court protects from prosecution for even publicly displayed crimes, not to mention the many more hidden ones he has perpetrated both while in office and before our country would even consider such a man fit for ANY public position.
That $5,000 offer absolutely is a BRIBE, which seems to be more or less ignored when that is a FEDERAL CRIME!!! That BRIBE doesn't have to actually be paid for it to be a FEDERAL CRIME. The OFFER all by itself is enough for a CONVICTION for anyone but Donald J. Trump!!!
Media sensationalism divisive propaganda nonsense. What is REALLY paramount is our eternal salvation. This fallen Godless corrupt world is our TEMPORARY home living separated from God for a SHORT time because of sin, so we can be spiritually born again by the Holy Spirit before we die by repenting of our sins and accepting Jesus as our Savior, God on earth Who died to pay for our sins to reconcile us with God and resurrected to prove He's our Savior and give us eternal life with Him. Read the entire Bible and Gospel in it for yourself. THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD AND SAVIOR —
Jesus Christ came down here from heaven, God on earth, to be born one of us His own creation, and He lived on earth with us for over three decades, and He taught us about God and His eternal heavenly kingdom and repentance and how to live righteously and He lived a perfect sinless life. Then He gave His sinless life to ALL people from ALL nations (there is only ONE GOD, there is not a different god for every nation) to pay for our sins for us, by dying on the cross and resurrecting from the dead three days later, to take the punishment for our sins for us so that justice was served, to defeat eternal death for us to reconcile us sinners with God to give us eternal life with Him, and after He resurrected from the dead to defeat death, sin and Satan for us, He lived on earth for forty more days, speaking to many people, then He ascended back up into heaven, and He is coming back again at the end of this world age to set up His eternal kingdom, for all people who believe this and have been spiritually born again by the Holy Spirit before they died by repenting of their sins and accepting Jesus as their Savior, God one earth Who died to pay for our sins to reconcile us with God and resurrected to prove He's our Savior and give us eternal life with Him, to live in for the rest of eternity, forgiven of our sins and reconciled with God.
He doesn't strike me as a baby! He seems agressive and terrifying!!! I dont put anything past him!😮😮😮😱😱😱🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
Gas prices in Canada are under $2 dollars a gallon
This Congress is a do nothing Congress they only thing this Congress does well is go on Vacation.
5 Thousand TAX PAYER DOLLARS is what he is Bribing us with our own money.
Trump has been president for 2 yrs STOP talking about Biden! Trump is a pathetic excuse of a man.
Trumps escalating America's destruction.
And the Democrats do?!? They're pushing a "day 1"agenda of revenge, I've not seen a single idea or plan to fix anything just impeachment! They don't care about Americans and their actions prove this.
Americans are voting because they feel they're going to get relief, in all honesty they're voting to halt Congress completely and that's definitely going to have negative effects on Americans day to day life.
The dividend lie should be front page news every day everywhere until election time! I’m sure many of trumpets will vote against their best interests thinking they’ll get money. FFS 🤦🏾♀️
Send 10.000 before election
Why are you entertaining this as legitimate? it is a bribe call it for what it is and he would never pay it anyway!!!!!!
Gas since march has barley been under 4 dollars freaking ridiculous and dont start the whole during Biden administration BS Biden didn’t start a war with Iran and nor did he claim to bring gas prices and inflation down on day one were 2 years with this bozo circus and no promise has been kept
He's not lying about the economy…. but he's not concerned with the average citizen finances, he is specifically speaking about his friends, his cronies, his Epstein'sList cohorts
How good was the economy under bush sr and jr? Pretty bad who is in office? Another republican president another war.
Who's the fool the person who told the lie that believes it, or the person who heard the lie that knows better??
It’s not red or blue. It’s not your fellow working American. It’s the current administration. They’re the ones in charge. The White House, Congress, the Supreme Court. Those are the people to hold accountable. Don’t be confused by the noise. If it was a Democratic administration I’d say the same thing.
This isn’t a red blue problem. Don’t be mad at your fellow American. Go after the politicians in charge. The buck stops with them.
Apparently, just the making of promises for a "Trump Dividend" is enough to keep over 70% of Republican voters happy with Trump. Still. He knows they like hearing the promises, then they forget.
