I bet the people still expecting those $5000 DOGE refund checks are really excited about this. https://t.co/g3v2xpx4GP

Trump offers a bribe of $5,000 in exchange for votes, the bribe is promoted as a dividend and would cost $1.2 trillion dollars. This is a felony under 18 U.S.C. § 597, bribing someone to vote a certain way is a federal crime punishable by prison. pic.twitter.com/rt3GZUbQhA

since becoming president again, Trump has promised:
-$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend"
-$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend"
-$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies
-$5000 "dividend" if Rs win midterms
no checks have been issued https://t.co/aJaUN79WPe— Catherine Rampell (@crampell) September 10, 2026

He’s literally trying to buy votes.
He has no authority to do such a thing.
$5k would barely break even on what I’ve paid in tariff inflationary costs since his reelection. https://t.co/xaKhBVDf4J

Wouldn’t it have been easier to not impose tariffs in the first place? https://t.co/7kexmztgtM

Several people posed the same question.
Why not do it right now? Republicans already control the House and the Senate https://t.co/NTyj6IayWe
