Trump dangles US$5,000 ‘dividend’ to Americans if Republicans win November elections

President Donald Trump announced a controversial US$5,000 "dividend" for American adults on Wednesday, if Republicans maintain control of Congress during the upcoming November elections. The proposal, dubbed the "Trump dividend," comes amid a struggling Republican party in the polls and growing concerns over economic issues. Trump urged supporters to "pretend" he was on the ballot, claiming he would still be "on the ballot, just one more time."

Unfavorable opinion polls show Trump's approval ratings in the low 30s, with voters increasingly frustrated by high prices and his military actions in Iran. Despite these challenges, Trump defended the ongoing war in Iran, predicting victory and attributing lower oil prices to the conflict. He also warned of a potential communist takeover if Democrats win, urging voters to decide the nation's future.
