Who Would Actually Qualify?
Confusion deepened within an hour of the speech when Vice President JD Vance appeared to narrow the scope of the promise, suggesting that wealthy Americans would not receive the payment after all — a detail Trump himself never mentioned on stage. Vance also floated a funding source: tariff revenue. The problem, as several outlets quickly pointed out, is that the number doesn’t come close to adding up. The federal government collected around $154.5 billion to $195 billion in tariff-related revenue in fiscal 2025, according to Treasury Department figures — a fraction of the $1 trillion-plus the dividend plan would require.
Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) publicly backed the idea and said he intended to draft legislation to formalize the dividend after the election, underscoring that any version of this plan would need congressional approval to become real. That detail alone makes the promise fundamentally different from a typical campaign pledge: it isn’t something Trump could simply order through executive action, and it would require the very Congress the payment is meant to help elect to actually pass it into law once in session.
Thank you PRESIDENT TRUMP. I would love to see mine go to a worthy cause. Maybe for our soldiers or Children needs. PRAYERS FOR PEACE AND VICTORY FOR REPUBLICAN S AND AMERICA.
Thank you Mr. President…
Thank you Mr.President…
Although I do get a little impatient with President Trump, the fact remains that he loves this great country and has restored the respect and dignity that we deserve as the greatest country on the planet! Thank you President Trump for all that you do for us and for once giving the American people back a little bit of our hard earned money! $5,000 dollars will give us the opportunity to have a better Thanksgiving and Christmas!
As for the Santiago gentleman who apparently is a Trump hating Communist Democrat, you sir can go F__k yourself and I hope you and all the Trump hating Communist rot in H_ll!
I have always voted for you and always will.
Thank you Mr. President.
I’m in 100% Republican all the way!
FIRST off , schnook , there aren’t ANY billions in running this country (maybe where you come from)!
SECOND , the economy isn’t going belly up (unless Demoncraps get the reigns again and force it)!
THIRD , Trump haters will try anything (to tank the economy) so they can try to blame Trump for it!
Anyone who would believe anything DT says is a fool. There’s an old saying, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me”. He hasn’t kept his word about anything. He has no moral substance. Once a liar, always a liar. Don’t trust anything he has to say. He’s playing you for his own benefit–that’s all he cares about–himself. Now he’s trying to bribe you to vote for Republicans so he can stay in Power. He wants to be a King, not a President of a democracy. He cares nothing about anyone else. He is truly a Narcissist (which is defined as: an extremely self-centered person who has an exaggerated sense of self-importance). The world is laughing at us. DT is a buffoon (a comically dressed performer (as at a circus) who entertains with playful tricks and ridiculous behavior)
That’s okay right ……The Trump don’t mind cause he give up the 5G. The Economy goes belly with him Driving off with the Multi -Billions He’s made as president of this Nation.
