Just vote Republican for free money!https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c62kzr1jg0jo
I think we should hold out until we get a pony, too.
I know you were making a joke, but isn't that illegal bribing Voters with money???
Wouldn't the tax payers actually be the ones paying???
This sounds way out there even for the Trumpster.

Where the hell do you think the money is coming from the Trumpster's pocket?
Some one is ignorant and it may not be me after all.
You may have missed it entirely but a lot of what the Trumpster promised when running, did not become a reality when elected. He has his Cronies in positions they know nothing about.

Trump, with his usual vagueness and evasiveness, is implying that this so-called dividend would be financed from the surplus generated by his tariffs. First of all, tariffs do not generate any new revenue for America; they simply tax domestic importers for foreign goods. Second, they aren't dividends; the fed. is not a mutual fund which earns money by investing it on the stock market. Third, Trump's tariffs are illegal; the SCOTUS already ruled on this. Fourth, Congress would have to approve the disbursement, and it is highly unlikely that even a GOP-controlled Congress would do this. Fifth, even if Congress were to approve this and SCOTUS turned a blind eye to the blatant illegality of paying people to vote, it would hardly compensate the American tax-payer for multiple financial hardships already imposed by Trump's stupid and erratic economic policies. In short, it ain't gonna happen; it is just one more example of Trump grandstanding to get momentary attention. Remember "I will build a wall and Mexico will pay for it"? It didn't get built, Mexico didn't pay for what little was built, and some of what he built already fell down.

Of course it's illegal. Note item II:
