Trump's $5,000 dividend to all American adults

[BADecker]

That's pretty wild. We need to support Republicans to get this money. Here's a better idea.

For all those who have some doubts about this, let's start a GoFundMe to reimburse government for the money that it spends on the Trump project. It would at least give somebody a job managing the GoFundMe funds that would come in. Might even be lucrative if one could show management expenses to be high enough. Loads of honest Republicans would donate , don't you think? Even some Democrats .

And if GoFundMe wouldn't allow a fund like this, there are other funding companies that might. This is important enough that one could start his own funding Internet company, and bypass all those companies that  that wouldn't allow something like this.

But why would they not allow this? It could put them on the map in an even higher position than they are now!

I really think the plan is to set off hyperinflation to pay off the national debt. I’ve been talking about this for 20 years now but I never thought I would live to see it. I still think that can’t actually be the case, but every day it seems the United States gets closer to losing reserve currency status.

^^^ The smart thing to do is to NOT pay off the national debt. Why not? Because we don't owe it. The Fed owes it to us. And if we shut them down, they will simply say something like, "Oh, too bad. We had a good run. But all things come to an end." And, of course, they would love it if we paid the debt off, because they would get more.

The thing we need to do is prosecute the countries and people of the EU who own the Federal Reserve Bank, and have been raping us since 1913 when the Fed was founded.

This is sort of the thing that Trump is doing in several different ways. Buying diesel from Russia is part of it. Doing the tariff thing is part of it. Moving gold around is part of it. On the outside, it looks like he is hurting us. But we are being brought into slavery by the Fed. Trump is trying to free us.

The Fed banking system is getting weaker. But will Trump get the job done before he leaves office? Will he see to it that somebody who thinks the way he does gets elected? The $5,000 stimulus is part of getting the election job done. Should be interesting.

What happens if tariffs revenue fall short of the amount needed? Who qualifies for the payment and how will the government cover the difference? These are more useful questions than assuming we already know the hidden intention behind the proposal. In my view, the real test of any government promises is not how attractive it sounds during an election but whether it can truly be delivered without creating bigger problems later on.

The national debt CANNOT be paid off.  USD (like all FIAT) is a ponzi.   The instant $1USD was created they owed more than it was worth.

Sure, we shouldn’t pay off the national debt now, but when you can exchange 2 snickers bars for a trillion dollars after hyperinflation it might be a good idea. This is literally the exact situation that got me started writing a book called The Race To Debase, which eventually led me to Bitcoin. Watching it start to play out now while I’m still alive is mesmerizing.

Trump is a the biggest bullshitter of them all , lmao if you believe this crap then that means they got you by the balls.

[CryptoBuds]

If government has to send out check whether to appease public or to sustain belief that economy is working, doesn't that reveal stark, uncomfortable truth that actual economic has completely failed to generate prosperity for everyone?

Receiving one time payment of $5000 might provide temporary sense of relief. It would offer brief moment of respite. Yet this fail to address core question. After decades of rising productivity and significant technological advancement then why does such large segment of population still suffer from acute economic insecurity?

Whether these fund come from tariff, borrowing, tax hike or even printing money, core crisis remains exactly same. Despite being world’s largest economy, why must ultimate solution involve distributing cash directly to people? I would say that this proposal is far more matter for concern than it is significant. This is because current situation has made such decision appear highly attractive from political standpoint.

Wouldn't I have to be wrong a first time?

Now we know why Trump lost the mid-terms.

[Jostern]

I’m curious to understand why Trump promised Americans that amount of money if Republicans are to win the midterm Election, and some Americans did end up not voting for the Republicans when the Economy is hitting hard like people so much emphasized, is it that they don’t prefer a certain stomach infrastructure, there are people who could call it vote buying, but at the end of the day, Americans never cared about Trumps promises, but a certain country in Africa will be selling their votes even when the government is disgusting and terrible, this people are ready to sell their votes for an amount that can’t provide one square meal to them.

[2stout]

Just more lies and fake bribes from the guy.  Where tariff check and doge saving check?  Dude was never serious about any of this as the savings were never there at the needed levels, but yet a lot of folks ate this up like it was gospel.  And even with the "tariff check", it would still be less than the increase in costs incurred from said tariffs.  Businesses made out 2 times as they passed the cost of the tariffs and then some to the consumer and then were able to get a refund for the tariffs they paid from the government.  Once again, the people were left out and screwed again.

One thing I think people are missing from the Republican wipeout in the US is that Trump did NOT promise to bring inflation down, he promised to return prices to where they were pre-COVID.

That was an obvious lie to anybody who understands economics, but that's why millions voted for him and his party two years ago.

And here we are with prices even higher.

Democrats, on the other hand, are promising to "work on affordability". In order to them to keep their promise, all they have to do is end the war in Iran, repeal all of the tariffs, and let 10 million American workers work again by stopping crackdown on immigrants. Then prices will fall in specific areas like gas, foreign goods, restaurants, hotels, and produce. It's not going to "reverse inflation" across the board, but Democrats will keep their promise in the way they made it.

This election is Republicans being caught in a lie, which only works for one election cycle. Democrats don't plan on making the same mistake.

Donald J. Trump knows that the midterm election will be difficult for Republican because of his policies so he decided to make a promise to pay $5,000 to all American adults if Republican win the midterm election, which is indirect vote buying, but some Americans weren't moved by that they prefer to vote in the people of their choice into political offices that can give them governance that will allow them to have a good living, work, and earn $5,000 in short term, even though a certain country Africa not sell their votes and they vote the people of their choice their votes won't still count, because elections are being rigged in Africa.

The last time the party of an incumbent president won more sits in the US midterm elections was since the time of George Bush in 2002. Trump tried to beat that record by offering 5 grands but it was too late cause asides his policies, people got fed up with his inability to keep to his promises especially with restoring peace in the middle east.

 Is vote buying not a form of rigging? I know it's different from ballot rigging and that of BVAS but convincing people with cash gifts to vote against their conscience is also another form of rigging. Africans have been decieved with the idea that their votes doesn't count that's why many people refuse to turn up and vote during elections forgetting the system of voting is different from that of the advanced countries.

^^^ That's why now is the best time for Putin and Russia to act. See my post at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5382794.msg67343926#msg67343926.

People all over the world are fed up with what their governments are doing. Putin has the chance to use this against the other governments of the world... if only he wakes up on time.

I read your post in the thread you posted, and these are my thoughts. Do you trust Putin to fulfil his promises? Some Africans who were recruited to fight in Ukraine were deceived. They were promised citizenship and other incentives. Many of them were treated so poorly that they were called disposable. Others who have finished their recruitment contract didn't receive citizenship as promised.

There might never be a victor or vanquished in the Ukraine-Russia war as it stands now. Negotiation and peaceful resolution are the main solutions to this protracted war.
