US President Donald Trump has promised that the government would grant $5,000 to every American if Republicans retain control of Congress in the upcoming November midterm elections. Trump made the pledge on Thursday while speaking at a first-of-its-kind, two-day Republican midterm convention in Dallas. The event placed Trump at the center of the Republican campaign ahead of the elections. His promise links the proposed payment directly to Republican success in retaining Congress, making the announcement a significant campaign message. The pledge was delivered as Republicans prepare for the November midterms, with Trump using the Dallas convention to rally support and place himself prominently in the party’s campaign efforts for all voters.
