'Make deals and get them built': Trump calls on data centre companies to pay a 'dividend'

US President Donald Trump called on data centre companies to make their own electricity and pay back communities or individuals a 'dividend'.

"If companies want to make their Data Centers popular, pay the community, and/or individuals within the community, a “dividend.” I have watched the process closely, and Data Centers that were highly unpopular in a certain area, have become extremely popular when a financial deal is struck. MAKE DEALS, and get them built!!!" he said in a post on Truth Social.
