$ZEC $ETC $DOT Trump Is Really Rushed: Every Person Gets $5,000—And There’s a Second Wave!
With less than two months until the midterm elections, Trump’s approval rating has fallen to 33%, the lowest point of his second term. He can’t afford to lose this battle. If he does, Democrats are very likely to take the House—then impeachment, investigations, and even jail time would line up in order. He definitely hasn’t forgotten the shadow of the two impeachments during his first term.
What’s to be done? Throw money at it.
Trump promised: If you help him win the midterm elections, every American adult will receive $5,000. The adult population in the United States is at least 100 million—so that’s at least $500 billion to start, topping off up to half a year of defense spending. And that’s not all. The second wave of benefits: a refund of the money collected during Obama’s health care reforms—about 1 million people, each getting $500. It’s both vote-buying and smearing the Democrats—one arrow, two targets.
The White House also touted: Trump has created a lot of wealth, and now he wants to share it with the people. But last month, data from the Treasury slapped that claim down: federal debt has surpassed $40 trillion, hitting another all-time high. Where did the money go? No sign of debt repayment, and no sign of any sharing either. Instead, it looks like it has gone into the pockets of families and conglomerates.
So the question is: Where will this money come from? If he pays from his own pocket, then in American politics it’s whoever has more money who gets ahead. Using taxpayers’ money to buy votes for himself is using public funds for campaigning and may be illegal. Trump can’t possibly not understand that.
So this $5,000 check is like a truth mirror. It reveals the reality of American politics: money is the road, votes have a price tag, and democracy has long been placed on the shelf. As for whether it can be cashed? We’ll see after the midterm elections. But this time, Trump is really, truly in a rush
