President Donald Trump reiterated his idea to give every American adult citizen $5,000 if the Republicans win the midterm elections, claiming he believes he could do it without the approval of Congress.
Trump first brought up the idea at the Republican midterm convention on Thursday. In a follow-up interview with CBS News political reporter Jack Fink, Trump was asked if Congress would have to approve such an expenditure: "Well, we think not. I think they will do it if we needed it. But we think not," he said.
