President Donald Trump has pledged to issue a $5,000 'dividend' to every adult US citizen if Republicans retain control of both chambers of Congress in November's midterm elections, while also announcing plans to pursue legislation that he said would prevent future presidents from reopening the border.
The twin announcements came during a nearly two-hour address to the Republican midterm convention in Dallas on Wednesday night, where the president framed the upcoming vote as a referendum on his second term.
