“Let us finish the job” and every American will get the “$5,000 Trump dividend.” President Donald Trump speaks at the Republican convention in Dallas and calls for mobilization in the face of unfavorable polls with the explosive promise of generous compensation, determined to maintain control of the House and Senate in the crucial midterm elections in November.
“In 55 days Americans will go to vote in the most important elections in our history. The choice is easy. The Democrats are asking you to vote to carry forward their failed agenda. I ask you to let us finish the job we have started. Pretend that “in the midterms” there is my name on the ballot”, said the tycoon, leveraging issues very dear to him, tracing dark scenarios after describing the initial part of his presidential mandate as “the two best years in the history of the US presidency”. “If you entrust the future of America to the Democrats, it will take the country a decade to get back on its feet. Vote for the Republicans.” Because, “if we lose, you will lose control of the borders, you will lose your tax cuts, you will lose your security. You will lose your wealth. Our country would go through hell and you will go through hell like it happened just two years ago,” Trump added, referring to the Biden presidency. “Vote for the Republicans and we will leave the rest of the world eating our dust for subsequent generations. There will be nothing comparable”, he added, drawing one of the most convincing applause from the delegates.
“I can promise you one thing: if the Republicans win the House and the Senate, I will distribute a $5,000 dividend to all adults, much like successful companies pay dividends to shareholders,” the president said in his nearly 2-hour speech, underlining that the only restriction for the “Trump dividend” is that it be spent in the US.
He said he will go to the 35 US states where midterm congressional races are most uncertain and return to Texas to support Ken Paxton, his candidate for Senate. “He is the best attorney general in the history of Texas,” he said, attacking his Democratic rival, James Talarico, ridiculed as “Talafrico” and the ‘socialist Democrats’, with the certainty that the US will never be a “socialist or communist” country.
He insisted that he had “won the presidency three times,” referring to the 2016, 2020 and 2024 elections. “We have secured the borders” and with tariffs, “my favorite word, we are raking in trillions.” No regrets about Iran: “If we hadn’t struck with our B-2s it would now have nuclear weapons.” Finally, the farewell to the notes of Ymca. In 24 hours his new speech, the one closing the convention.
