As part of his high-profile campaign efforts for the midterms in November, Trump suggested that each and every adult American citizen be paid $5,000 as a "Trump dividend" in case the Republicans retain control of the Congress. Addressing the first midterm convention of the Republican Party in Dallas, Trump has put himself at the heart of the party’s election campaign efforts, even though he currently commands some of the lowest approval ratings as well as in the face of mounting voter anger due to soaring living expenses and tensions with Iran. The costly scheme will cost the U.S. taxpayers about $1.35 trillion for the 270 million adults in the country, posing major political challenge to him.
