USA: Festnahmen bei Protesten gegen Parteitag der Republikaner
Am Rande des großen Parteitags der Republikaner vor den Zwischenwahlen im November ist es am Donnerstag zu Protesten gekommen. Auf dem Parteitag selbst griffen die republikanischen Redner die Demokraten vor allem bei kulturellen Themen an.
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."
