Parteitag: Trump verspricht US-Bürgern „Dividende“ von 5000 Dollar bei Wahlsieg der Republikaner

Der US-Präsident kündigt eine Prämie für alle erwachsenen US-Bürger an, falls seine Partei die Midterms gewinnt. Das Vorhaben wäre so teuer wie der gesamte Verteidigungshaushalt für ein Jahr.

Parteitag: Trump verspricht US-Bürgern „Dividende“ von 5000 Dollar bei Wahlsieg der Republikaner

New York - During a Republican Party convention in Dallas, Texas, US President Donald Trump promised American citizens a "dividend" of $5,000 (approximately €4,300) if his party wins the upcoming congressional elections. Trump described the upcoming midterms as "one of the most important elections in U.S. history". If the country were left to the "radically left Democrats", it would set the US back for the next decade, Trump warned during the Republican Party convention.

Trump, known for his penchant for superlatives, urged citizens to vote for the Republicans. Campaign promises are common during election periods: the US President pledged $5,000 to all adult American citizens if his party wins the congressional elections. The promised financial aid would be dubbed the "Trump dividend."
