Former President Donald Trump announced a proposal to distribute $2,000 “dividend” payments to Americans using tariff revenue as the funding source. He shared the idea on social media with a forceful endorsement of tariffs, presenting the plan as a direct benefit to the public. His message sparked discussion both inside and outside the administration, as many sought clarity on how such a program would function.
