At the Republican Party’s 2026 midterm convention in Dallas on Wednesday, Sept. 9, President Donald Trump proposed what he called a “Trump dividend” of $5,000 for every adult American if Republicans retain control of both the House and Senate in the November 2026 midterm elections. It would cost an estimated $1 trillion.
