Donald Trump is ramping up his efforts to use taxpayer money and resources to help Republicans win the 2026 midterm elections.
And it’s not at all subtle.
At last month’s Republican midterm convention, he severely pushed the envelope by promising every adult US citizen $5,000 if Republicans hold both the House and the Senate. That was already stunning — to offer voters money for a specific outcome. But Trump has only continued pushing the envelope since then.
Over the last 10 days, he has run more than a dozen different government-funded ads that are geared toward promoting himself and his supposed accomplishments.
Dude made $2.4B in office but can’t afford to pay for his own campaign ads…
He also just renewed his Elongated Muskrat subscription.
I’m GLAD we have a President that HELPS the People with DIRECT Money Payments!
-People who would rather DIE then to live in a SOCIALIST HELLSCAPE!
Trying?
Anyone even considering trying for the $5000 should ask themselves what happened to the $2000 in tariffs money, the $3000 DOGE refund, or the $1776 America 250 payout. (I might have mixed up the first two.) He already owes the American people so much.
Hey, remember that scene from Braveheart? I can’t remember what exactly Mel Gibson said. He was making demands of some king. Part of it involving going to every home and apologising. Trump owes the American people at least that much. A true hat-in-hand apology at their front door. You’ll never see it though.
Saw a couple of these last night; he was ranting about “warmongers;” meanwhile, how many wars has this guy started?
Didn’t he end wars before they started?
Do you mean when he forced Biden to pull out of Afghanistan so the Taliban could Make Afghanistan Great Again?
When President Donald Trump was reminded in an interview with Time magazine this week that he had said he would end the Russian war on Ukraine on “day one,” he claimed he hadn’t been speaking literally or seriously.
“Well, I said that figuratively, and I said that as an exaggeration, because to make a point, and you know, it gets, of course, by the fake news [unintelligible]. Obviously, people know that when I said that, it was said in jest, but it was also said that it will be ended,” Trump said, according to Time’s transcript.
This “in jest” claim is a lie.
On the campaign trail in 2023 and 2024, Trump said on dozens of occasions, in an entirely serious tone, manner and context, that he would end the war in Ukraine either within 24 hours of his return to the White House or even sooner than that. He said over and over again, including at both presidential debates of 2024, that he would have the war “settled” when he was president-elect, before his inauguration.
A Friday search of the Roll Call Factba.se database that catalogues Trump’s public remarks turned up at least 53 examples of Trump making such comments.

I guess the “dictator for a day on day 1” was exempted from the ‘/s’
I said that figuratively, and I said that as an exaggeration
LOL he’s too stupid to even come up with some sort of political response to this. His official response is “LOL JK! And you know I was joking and damn you for saying otherwise!”
Here’s your $5K………credit towards a fabulous new $3M Trump Tower condo!
Well, no one seems to be able to do anything about it so I guess this is the new reality.
In his defense, he probably does think he’s being super subtle.
Don’t forget, this is a guy who brags about his IQ… And his dementia tests which he obviously took for fun
journalism is dead
The people who will be bought don’t understand how insulting it is for him to buy them, because they’re stupid
(And it’s working.)
By now he must’ve (correctly) deduced that his approval will never really go lower than ~30% because that 30% doesn’t vote (or live) rationally. He quite literally took tens of thousands from both people who could barely afford it and those who could really not afford it - AND THEY WOULD STILL VOTE FOR HIM.
He’s bribing them with pennies on every dollar he steals and they suck his ass and worship his tiny dick for it.
Hey hey hey, he’s one of the most evil people to walk the earth but not because of his tiny dick.
