Trump Promises $5,000 For US Citizens if GOP Win Midterms
President Donald Trump has pledged a $5,000 dividend to all adult U.S. citizens if Republicans maintain control of Congress in the upcoming midterm elections. This promise comes as the president faces political peril and aims to address voter concerns about the cost of living and the ongoing conflict with Iran.
The promise aims to boost Republican chances in the midterms by appealing to voters concerned about their finances, though markets have reacted mutedly, potentially due to concerns about inflation and the national debt.
The episode also covers Iran's readiness for an escalated war with the U.S., Apple's new foldable smartphone, rising oil and gas prices fueling inflation fears, and expected interest rate decisions from the ECB.
