Donald Trump promises $5,000 dividend and warns voters at Dallas rally

At a Republican midterm convention in Dallas, Texas, President Donald Trump addressed supporters with several provocative statements aimed at driving voter turnout for the upcoming November 3 elections.

Trump warned his supporters that they would ‘go to hell’ if they failed to vote. During a call-and-response pledge, he also made a remark about attempting to ‘cheat like hell’ in reference to allegations of Democratic electoral fraud. He urged followers to mobilize friends and family to ensure Republican majorities are maintained in both the House and the Senate.

Additionally, Trump proposed a ‘Trump dividend,’ promising that if Republicans retain control of Congress, every adult citizen in the United States would receive a $5,000 payment. He attributed this potential payout to the country’s economic strength, though he did not provide a specific funding plan. One report noted that such a program could impose a massive financial burden on the federal budget.

Vice President JD Vance also spoke at the event, calling on Republicans to protect their congressional majorities and prevent the country from falling to political opponents.
