Trump’s $5K PeR Person Scam To Win the Mid-Terms

President Trump wants every adult American to get five thousand dollars. But that will only happen if the GOP sweeps the midterms. So let’s all do our part on November 3 to collect $5k!

Even Fox host Laura Ingraham sees through this scam: If Donald Trump were serious about giving each American adult five thousand dollars from the US Treasury, she asked, why not do it now, while you control all three branches of government?

Here is Trump’s verbatim response. I kid you not: “Democrats can’t do it. Because with them it’s negative growth.”

Huh?

With the election in less than two months, polls indicate the GOP is on track to lose the House and maybe the Senate.

So Trump is baiting his lure with a $5k per person gambit that voters will forget the pointless, unprovoked war in Iran or the unlawful, nonstrategic tariffs that are driving up the cost of food and fuel.

And lord knows he doesn’t want anyone thinking about his ole pal Jeffrey Epstein when they enter the voting booth (or cast a mail-in ballot!).

So Trump is heaving a Hail Mary. Were it to succeed and the GOP swept the mid-terms, the payout from the US Treasury would be a staggering $1.3 trillion.

It’s a transparent bait and switch, now standard fare from Trump. Recall his $5k “DOGE dividend,” the $2k tariff dividend, the $500 Obamacare “rebate” checks, etc. Check your bank account. Don’t see these? Me either.

This latest scam might not meet the legal test for a felony. But that’s a fault in the law. Common sense tells us it’s textbook bribery and fraud.
