Vice-president JD Vance appeared to partially row back on Donald Trump’s outlandish claims that every adult citizen in the US would receive $5,000 if the Republicans retain the House and Senate in the midterm elections.
“If the Republicans win, you win with us, and you get $5,000,” Trump told a roaring crowd, during a nearly two-hour long speech at the Republican midterm convention in Dallas in which he also urged voters to “pretend that I’m on the ballot”.
But Vance, speaking after the president, suggested the so-called dividend payments would not go to the wealthy and that it could be paid for by US tariff revenues – though the suggested payment dwarfs what the US has taken in through the protectionist measures.

To $4999 ?LOL
I’ve already spent mine in anticipation.
That's a big chunk-of-change, even for the US Federal government.
Another Lake America.
Vance needs to STFU as the lieberal MEdia sets out to divide and conquer the GOP. They immediately run to him to contradict and discredit Trump.
Rubio is much more savvy in dealing with them. As is Bessent.
Rubio-Bessent 2028.
I’m still waiting for the previous $2,000 tariff dividend check and the $5,000 DOGE dividend check. Please add the new $5,000 and send me a single check for $12,000. Alternatively, keep it all and cut government spending per capita by $12,000. Much cheaper.
Transparently bribing the voters with cash promises is so conservative and doesn’t stink of desperation at all. Will it come wrapped in a rubber band in a paper bag? The saving grace of this idea is he’ll never actually deliver.
According to Vance, it’s only going to the poor, so you need to factor that into your “math.”
Not the best delivered message as it sounds like he’s paying for votes, which we often scream as corrupt when the libs do it.
Assuming it’s that the potus can’t do the payment on their own, they need congressional approval and the only way that approval will happen is if Republicans keep their majority.
“According to Vance, it’s only going to the poor, so you need to factor that into your “math.”
And only to stay at home mothers who’s husbands promise not to make any more that a minimum salary
I’m still waiting for my DOGE and Tariff Rebate checks
This about it: All Trump is doing explicitly is what incumbents do implicitly: buy votes. The ones screaming the loudest about shutting down NGO’s are the ones getting the most from fraud. At least Trump is honest about it.
Nearly everyone instantly envisioned a $5000 DIVIDEND as someone sending you cash.
In the financial universe, a DIVIDEND can be anything that provides profit above and beyond an individuals targeted effort to achieve such profit.
This can be unexpected or planned for 401K valuation, your property value (not just geographical property), a sudden new or advancement in your employment caused by the economies explosive improvement.
Carefully examine word-for-word the paragraph prior to the $5000 dividend words in the light of factual financial universe definitions. Same thing with those DOGE DIVIDENDS.
I also have to admit I didn’t see any of the rally last night. I’ll try to watch some of it tonight.
This is the peculiar nature of money that many people don’t understand—or choose to forget.
No, putting more money into people’s pockets isn’t necessarily a good idea if it simply pumps up asset prices and stokes inflation. I have five grand more, but so does my neighbor. Not a single additional good or service has been produced to meet that increased demand, so it will most likely just drive inflation even higher.
There isn’t a lack of money in the system—quite the opposite. Sadly, this is just a ploy to literally buy votes, and the effect will be detrimental.
Bit by bit Vance is showing signs of becoming another Pence.
What good does his yapping do for winning? None. Only gives fodder to MSM TDSers and forum jockeys and bloggers to nitpick it so all the remains is Demonrat fury.
How is this different than Mamdani saying he will have free transportation and free food, or Wilson saying she will make the rich pay for everything and abolish property rights in Seattle?
I might be a contrarian but here’s my take. With 40 trillion in debt the Bush/Obama stimulus check was wrong as well as the Trump covid checks and now this boondoggle. Maybe it’s time to pay our debts and let the economic cycle work. Keynesian economics has created a debt crisis for the whole western world!
Amazing how easily folks buy into a narrative provided by leftist media bloggers without a shred of empirical evidence. Where is the clip/quote from Vance to support the bs headline that triggered you?
