Do you think we will ever see the $2000 that tRump said we will get from the tariffs. I don't.

1. Possibly in an attempt to buy votes for Nov 2026.

They will probably roll it out a few weeks before the election to buy votes.

[debm55]

2. I agree or be in his pocket. Thank you drray23.

[at140]

3. Trump has no such power to distribute money.

Congress has to go along and authorize it. It will be an attempt to buy votes.

[debm55]

7. Well, tRump does a lot ot shit that he is not authorized to do.

[wcmagumba]

4. Naw, never gonna happen,,,just another shiny distraction...

[debm55]

8. I don't think so either.

[3auld6phart]

5. No

But a bunch of magggots will be.

[debm55]

9. True, 3auld6phart.

[gay texan]

6. If he does, it's being donated to the canidates i want n/t

[Abolishinist]

13. DOGE knows.

It will all depend on one's voter registration.

[debm55]

19. Would they be able to do that? What the hell am I asking --they will do it.

[Greg_In_SF]

14. Of course!!!

not

[debm55]

17. Oh you, I don't think so either.

[orangecrush]

18. ...

[debm55]

21. I can dream, Doesn't mean it will come true.

[orangecrush]

46. Certainly

[SheltieLover]

20. Of course not. It was a concept of a weave of a plan...

[debm55]

22. Thank you SheltieLover. Yes, the asshole had no plans to give us the money.

[misanthrope]

23. Depends on how much electoral trouble he thinks he is in

The only reason he has said he now has a solution for the Obamacare subsidies is because he is scared his party is going to lose control of things. He sees services for his subjects as little more than bribery.

[debm55]

31. Thank you for that insight, misanthrope.

[Gaugamela]

24. Bessent said it's not happening, and Congress

would have to appropriate it. That's 600 billion out of the pockets of our precious billionaires, unless they raise the debt ceiling, which would add to the national debt. All that just to throw the peasants a bone that will be spent in 6 weeks catching up on bills.

It might give the stock market a brief boost, but in the end I don't think the billionaires would go for it.

[debm55]

32. Point on, Gaugamela.

[wcmagumba]

25. I'd use it to buy an e-trike for my old butt to scoot around on in my little country town...ha ha...

Don't need...

[debm55]

33. HAHAHAHAHAH. Thank you, wcmagumba.

[wcmagumba]

41. Especially don't need since I already have an ebike and a 20" 7 speed folding bike (no motor)...

too many wheels for a 68 year old although my balance is not as good as it used to be so three wheels might be easier to manage...

[debm55]

45. That is great. Thank you very much for sharing, wcmagumba.

[hlthe2b]

26. R's in Congress have already put the kabash on it.

[debm55]

34. Where was the tariff money supposed to have gone? Back into the Treasury?

[hlthe2b]

36. All lies, but what tariff $$ that has been or might be collected would go to Treasury, yes, but Congress has to approve

such funds to be dispersed in that way. I sincerely hope few Americans believe his lies on this.

[debm55]

42. There are so many different things coming out of his mouth on any given day. It is hard to know what the heck is going

on.

[GP6971]

28. Nope. Not going to happen.

[debm55]

35. I haven't heard about it for some weeks. Will the money stay in the Treasury or in the pockets of the rich?

[mwmisses4289]

29. When pigs fly, raccoons dance,

and the tooth fairy 🧚‍♀️ graces me with a million+ dollars.

(Of course, if the tooth fairy 🧚‍♀️ graces me with a million+ dollars, I won't need that measly two thousand, will I? 😄 )

[debm55]

37. Oh you, nothing can be trusted coming from that liar;s mouth.

[Aussie105]

30. So the price of buying voter loyalty is . . .

$2,000?

Gosh! Smells of bribery and desperation.

Politicians used to prefer policy statements to attract voters.
Is this the New Way?

Anyhow, the cost of the tariffs probably works out to more than $2K per working & voting age people.

Does Trump still think tariffs are paid by other countries?

?v3

Bother, text didn't come across!
Use your imagination: Bart is writing 'Tariffs are good!'

[debm55]

39. Thank you Aussie105

[DBoon]

38. has Trump EVER paid anyone?

He didn't pay his contractors, why should he follow through on a promise to American citizens?

[debm55]

40. Very true, DBoon.

[IbogaProject]

43. The last mention was only for "Taxpayers"

And I'd suspect they will use a restrictive definition where one only qualifies if one paid tax on investment gains.

[debm55]

44. Yes, I remember that. That would leave his buddies in.
