President Donald Trump offered a vague answer when asked about the timing of the $5,000 “Trump Dividend” checks he said his administration would send to Americans after the midterms.
The Republican, who outlined the plan last night at the GOP’s midterm convention in Texas, spoke with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham about the check plan after his speech.
During the interview, the president was asked why he was promising to send the checks after the midterms if the money was available now.
“Because the Democrats can’t do it. Because with them, it’s negative growth. With us, it’s so positive,” Trump said. “So, we’re taking in $21 trillion. No country has ever taken in anywhere near that. It’s four or five times higher than the next one. All because of that beautiful word you and I love more than most others, tariffs.”
(It is unclear what $21 trillion the president was talking about, but neither his tariffs nor investment commitments to the U.S. have brought in that much money alone during his administration.)
Because he has no intention of sending them. Ever.
Why does anyone think he would?
Lying liar lies again when called out on his latest lie.
“Because the Democrats can’t do it. Because with them, it’s negative growth. With us, it’s so positive,” Trump said. “So, we’re taking in $21 trillion. No country has ever taken in anywhere near that. It’s four or five times higher than the next one. All because of that beautiful word you and I love more than most others, tariffs.”
There is $167b tariff revenue for first 11 months of fiscal year. 2027 is forecast to bring in $160b. There are legal challenges to those as well. $21T needs 150 years of continuity of his crazy. Not to mention, he’s threatened to bring tariff revenue to 0 by eliminating all trade next week after Fed raises interest rates.
The promise costs $1.325T. At 5% interest 10 year bond financing, total 10 year tariff hopeful revenue would still be a $387.5B net loss after then end of his 4th term :P
If “Dems really can’t do it”, all the more reason to do it alone now just to make sure Americans get rewarded for all the tremendous success/winning he’s accomplished.
That dumbass has no idea what tarriffs even are. It’s a buzz word that has wedged itself intl his pudding brain.
Cause that’s not how to trick people and give them nothing.
Completely deranged pedophile sociopath, and yet some people still think he’s the second coming of christ.
Or the anti-christ, but they’re still into it cause its gods will.
Because they’re one in the same.
He is lying. He’s just fucking lying. It wasn’t a “vague answer“. It was a big fat fucking LIE.
Is it a lie if it’s entirely incoherent?
Maybe it’s the “concept of a lie”? Lol.
We think hes trying to lie but hes too far gone to get the words out
He can’t even get through a whole sentence anymore. It’s absurd.
We finally got him folks.
THERE ARE NO CHECKS was the right answer.
Nor balances.
Or cakes.
Word salad. It’s just freeform bullshit coming out of his puckered pie hole.
Being a speech writer for him would be so frustrating. I know there’s been skits done about it. Even if you’re being paid for it regardless, putting any amount of work into something and then have it be totally derailed every time…
Since 2015 Japanese translators have had so much trouble figuring out what he’s saying. In the first presidency, his boisterous rhetoric filled with exaggerations was hard to put in words that would sound befitting to a leader, and not be mistaken as the translators making fun of him. In more recent years, it’s his frequent repetition, primitive words and even more frequent derailing into word salad tangents that he can barely finish a coherent thought that is the challenge for translators.
For years they’ve pretty much given up and cut it to a 2 sentence summary each time at best. Recent example article in Japanese Recent example video
and not be mistaken as the translators making fun of him.
Anything short of that is sanewashing him and thus a dereliction of duty on the translator’s part.
The thing is that it was totally novel and in Japanese news on international affairs especially unprecedented, virtually everything was sanewashed in the past, so it’s not surprising that media and diplomatic officials in Japan were shocked and taken aback in the first couple years.
My god that’s fucking hilarious. You could not pay me enough to be a translator.
You think he has speech writers? I always thought they just wheel him on stage and let him loose.
They just read him a chapter from mein kampf before wheeling him out and the general tone of it makes it’s way into his otherwise senile rambling.
He’s definitely drilled extensively on talking points. His wittering is always a mix of the things Fox & Friends got him riled up about, attacks on people who’ve contradicted him, and some Quixote-esque attempt at the points he’s meant to make that week.
I think he has to have something to lead into the topic. Just like LLMs, a prompt to build from, no actual thoughts beginning there.
A trump never pays his debts
Well you see what had happened was, remember that Fuhrer bunker… er I mean ballroom the pedophile said was to be paid for by donors?
Congratulations, you’re all donors!! It’s not technically paid by the taxpayers WITH taxpayer money… just the other tax the dumbfucks who voted for this shit fail to understand who pays the tarrifs; hint, you do.
Dementia Diaper Don at his finest.
