Dallas: US President Donald Trump promised on Wednesday to issue a $5,000 cash handout to every adult American citizen if the Republican Party wins the upcoming midterm elections. Speaking at a Republican conference in Dallas, Trump stated, “If the Republicans win the House and the Senate, both… I will give a $5,000 cash handout to every adult citizen in the United States of America.”

According to National Iraqi News Agency, this maneuver comes as Republicans show signs of weakness ahead of the midterm elections, in which the opposing party typically gains seats in Congress. Independent political analysts believe the Democrats have the advantage in the House race, while control of the Senate remains undecided.

Trump added that the only condition attached to this handout is that it be spent within the United States, though he did not provide further details on how the funds would be disbursed. The total cost of the measure, as described by the president, will far exceed one trillion dollars.
