Midterm Campaign Pledged Payout

Trump Pledges Five Thousand Dollars to Americans If Republicans Retain Congress

President Donald Trump has pledged to give every American adult $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the upcoming midterms. This pledge, made at the GOP's midterm convention in Dallas, could cost over $1 trillion. However, it would exacerbate the country's nearly $1.8 trillion annual budget deficit. Republicans are appealing to voter concerns about the economy, the war in Iran, and the direction of the country. They also highlighted their legislative accomplishments, the 'Big Beautiful Bill', which has seen mixed success. Ukraine's President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is seeking further military support for Ukraine's fight against Russia. The pilot of the Amazon cargo plane that crashed in Miami warned it was coming in too fast two minutes before the collision, according to the National Transportation Safety Board.
