More than ever, since World War II, ordinary Americans of the middle-class and lower are struggling horrendously due to bad, asinine Executive decisions (the Iran War), Executive foreign tariffs, Executive driven hyper-inflation, and an astronomical Cost of Living, also caused by the Executive Branch. It is most likely those Americans won’t see or recoup the 2-year (or more) losses for at least two more years, if not more. BUT WAIT!!! 😲 There is hope!
Back on September 9-10, 2026 in Dallas, TX, fake prez Donald J. Trump promised all Americans a $5,000 payment, called the “Trump Dividend” check. Wow! But just a second, I have one question…
Has anyone, any American received one dime from fake prez Trump? Let me know. I want to know how and why you received even a dime from Trump!

Per the internet: “About 20.8 million Medicare Part B enrollees who are not high-income earners, do not receive Medicaid premium assistance, and are not in Medicare Advantage received the one-time $90 rebate.” Perhaps you two fell into one of those categories?

Yes, we are supposedly “right on the cusp” of many various so-called benefits. Hell, even my Mom (rest her soul) was NEVER legit to received any help from Medicaid, general LT Care, or private Assisted Care Living facilities in Central Texas—who were all private pay anyway!—because she earned from Southwest Airlines and Mobil Oil $100–$300 over her work career that always disqualified her. And here’s the real gut-punch…
Mom’s late husband was a WW2 veteran, and the VA wouldn’t qualify her for benefits either after his death OR for her LT Care help! 🤬
It seems Sandy and I will fall in that category too of barely just over the Poverty Line. 😠

Where is the $5000?
Same place as the checks he promised for the efforts of the DOGEbags and refunds for tariffs. All this crap was part of the rhetoric style he and his staff calls, “the weave”. In the 1971 film Carnal Knowledge ,the Sandy character (played played by Art Garfunkel) repeatedly calls the Jonathan character (played by Jack Nicholson) a BS artist (I am unfamiliar with yer policy on swear werds, so I used initials). I knew of several such individuals back in my High School days — anything you did they did it faster and under duress. This behavior is expected when it’s driven by teenage hormones and massive insecurity, but an adult man in his 80s? The phrase “arrested development” immediately leaps to mind.

Didn’t he say the Reps must win the House and Senate for this payout to be realized, or did I miss something?

So why make that conditional promise in the first place? Does the MORON think the American people can be bought, bribed, that “everyone has a price” at the expense of our honor, integrity, and principles? Yeah, no.

The $5,000 was promised if the Republicans won the midterms, which they rather spectacularly did not.
Of course there’s not a chance in Hell that anyone would have seen a dime of that money even if they had won, but technically he does have an “out” for this one.
