President Donald Trump has pledged to send out a $5,000 check to every American citizen if his Republican Party keeps hold of their majority across Congress in November’s midterms, a gesture already inviting questions and controversy.
Taking the stage for the opening night of his unusual midterms convention at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, Trump promised voters: “If Republicans win both the House and the Senate, because of our tremendous economic success, I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States for $5,000.”
