President Donald Trump on Sunday claimed that a “dividend of at least $2000 a person” will be paid to all Americans except for “high-income people,” saying the country is now wealthy as a result of his tariff policies.

“People that are against Tariffs are FOOLS! We are now the Richest, Most Respected Country In the World, With Almost No Inflation, and A Record Stock Market Price. 401k’s are Highest EVER,” the president wrote.

      I bet all the federal workers out of a paycheck right now are gonna be really thankful for getting 2k instead of a stable income.

      Meanwhile, the corporate parasites are already salivating at the prospect of the indirect cash injection from government coffers.
