Trump speaks at GOP midterm convention in Dallas
Trump claims he will send $5,000 to every citizen if Republicans hold on to control of Congress
Trump has claimed he will send every citizen $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the US House and Senate. He provided no details about where he would source this money from or the legality of the incentive.
“So if the Republicans win, you win with us … it will be called the Trump dividend,” the president said.
By that logic the pandemic stimulus checks were a bribe and so was the undelivered promise of DOGE checks and surplus checks he made previously this term.
But, back to reality, promising an indiscriminate federal policy if reelected is not a bribe.
The problem with it is he’s a fucking liar. And you’re a fucking liar for trying to deligitimize that stance with absurd fallacious statements.
I’m not trying to delegitimize anything. He is a liar, and obviously the checks are another lie. The Covid stimulus checks and the DOGE checks weren’t part of a quid pro quo. This time he said “If the Republicans win, you win with us and you get $5,000”. The fact that he’s bribing the entire population at once doesn’t make it not a bribe.
There can be two problems at once. Yeah, it’s a lie. It’s also a bribe. One of those is an impeachable offense.
Also you’re being a dick.
they are a blue maga, once you disagree with them once you are a liar/maga/bot, etc. zero self awareness
I don’t think so; FiniteBanjo and I have disagreed a few times now and I’m obviously not blocked. I think they’re just cocksure.
