President Donald Trump promises $5,000 payments to US adults if Republicans keep Congress majority

In Dallas, Texas, President Donald Trump promised $5,000 payments to every American adult if Republicans retain control of Congress in the midterm elections. Polls conducted September 11-14 show that while many Americans support the idea, a majority doubt Trump will deliver. The plan could cost $1.2 trillion, and funding details remain unclear. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the Treasury is working on ways to fund it without increasing the deficit. The proposal has sparked debate and skepticism among voters and some Republicans.
