US President Donald Trump announced that he will offer 5000 dollars to every American in the event of a victory in the midterm elections scheduled for November 3. He made this promise during a speech at a Republican midterms convention held on Wednesday.
Trump faces sharp criticisms in the United States two years after returning to the White House. The convention failed to fill the venue, which bodes poorly for the MAGA camp as midterm elections traditionally function as a sanction vote against the ruling party.
“An unprecedented initiative resembling an open civic corruption pact.”
