Trump speaks at GOP midterm convention in Dallas

Trump claims he will send $5,000 to every citizen if Republicans hold on to control of Congress

Trump has claimed he will send every citizen $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the US House and Senate. He provided no details about where he would source this money from or the legality of the incentive.

“So if the Republicans win, you win with us … it will be called the Trump dividend,” the president said.

What he said is harmful

Telling lies is harmful

How is that not obvious?

not reporting on a lie, so that it keep getting repeated, with no counter.

the fact that you think reporting is repeating something in support of it shows how little you care about journalism or the truth, no wonder trump won 2 elections with people like you as opposition, literally treating the guy like he is "he who shouldnt be name" and giving him all the space and time he needs to keep spouting his bs and convincing people to vote for him
