Trump says that a “dividend of at least $2000 a person” will be paid to all Americans except for “high-income people.”

    “The $2,000 dividend could come in lots of forms, in lots of ways, George,” Bessent told anchor George Stephanopoulos. “You know, it could be just the tax decreases that we are seeing on the president’s agenda – you know, no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, deductibility of auto loans.”

    The end of the article gives away the game. There’s no plan. They don’t intend to help people, they’re going to tell you they already gave it to you, and you should be thankful.

      The mystery box could be anything… even a boat.

      Not the same show, but I can’t help myself.

    That doesn’t even make up for health care premium increases.
