No one is getting a $2000 check or refund

[Greenbeard]

Wow, I see "floats the idea" and "suggested" and "idea put forward", but you idiots interpret that as PROMISED. WTF is wrong with you clowns.

Is Trump Giving Out $2000 to Americans? Here’s What We Know

Where's my DOGE dividend?

 

[Thinker101]

Where's my DOGE dividend?

In the mail, along with the $2500 from Obamacare.

Why would someone not cash it and how would not cashing it make it worth more?

If it had Trumps name on it and auto-signature, it could increase in value over time.

I don't know if you are familiar with the first Nintendo system, I think it was 16 bit, maybe 8 bit I dont remember.

Anyways, every Nintendo came with Super Mario Brothers free as part of the purchase. It was a brilliant decision and made it the most popular video game system in the world by far.

Well, I would always laugh when I went to the video game store and would see Super Mario Brothers being sold as a stand alone game. They were always 20 boxes deep since the only reason someone would buy it is if they lost their original free game.

Well, see below for an understanding of collectible that are "unused". In this case, a "President Donald J Trump" tariff check. It's the same with unopened collectibles or game tickets.

Why would the inventor of the 50-year mortgage lie about this?

Hey ace, 50 year mortgage has been around since 2006 or even earlier.

The Democrats this plan seems to piss off are the Marxist majority who would rather see the American worker squirm and go hungry. Schumer sucks, but he is better than the Marxists. His problem is that he's either too dumb or too naive to realize that the Marxists in his party have him set up to be their fall guy

Here is the full quote from his social media account.

People that are against Tariffs are FOOLS! We are now the Richest, Most Respected Country In the World, With Almost No Inflation, and A Record Stock Market Price. 401k’s are Highest EVER. We are taking in Trillions of Dollars and will soon begin paying down our ENORMOUS DEBT, $37 Trillion. Record Investment in the USA, plants and factories going up all over the place. A dividend of at least $2000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone

So there you go. He said it. He gave no timeline. He did put the cart in front of the horse.

Clearly, if the tariffs go away, there is no chance of a dividend to taxpayers.

Just making sure you’re not making any plans with these free $2000.

Any money I get from the government - such as the COVID stimuli - went into my gun safe.
Well, some of it went into the purchase of a 2nd safe, to hold the overflow.
This money, if it arrives, will be no different.

Conservatives used to call Obama out on that one. Now they call out Obama and Trump together. We’re getting honest.

 

[Seymour Flops]

Let’s be clear. Donald Trump promised a $2000 dividend.

That could mean two things, in both scenarios you ain’t getting no check or refund.

Scenario 1) Donald Trump actually means a check, in the sense that most people probably interpreted Trump‘s promise in social media.
Or a refund if you choose to receive the funds electronically.

Weird definitions.

In this scenario, Trump lied because he does not know for sure that this money will be approved by Congress, which would require 60 votes in the Senate. And the barriers are too strong. Not passing for sure.

What a political boon to Republicans it would be if the House and a majority of Senators voted to pay the dividend and Senate Dems filibustered it!

Will Clpmmhucky lead this effort to screw Americans as he did the most recent one?

Scenario #2: Trump was being slick and he actually meant some bullshit life, “I meant the money from the tax cuts already passed in the big beautiful Bill”. Treasury Secretary Bessent already took care of that part by saying that this may be how people will get the money.

Could be. If so, I'm not out any money. My life will not be much affected.

In this second scenario, of course you’re not getting a check or refund.

Just making sure you’re not making any plans with these free $2000.

I assume you're addressing that to Democrats and "not Democrats." That is who counts on government checks to the point that missing one is a disaster.

We saw that during the ill-advised Schumer Shutdown.

Well this thing is getting around like wildfire. I don't know if he has a choice after making such a stupid post.

 

[XponentialChaos]

The money should be applied to the budget deficit

First time we agree on something.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Use the funds to pay down the debt. It has to start somewhere

 

[Thinker101]

Conservatives used to call Obama out on that one. Now they call out Obama and Trump together. We’re getting honest.

Right, you getting honest, that'll be a cold day in hell.

Where's my DOGE dividend?

Those stolen USAID tax dollars are now stolen SNAP tax dollars.

Let’s be clear. Donald Trump promised a $2000 dividend.

Why would you think some Republicans wouldn’t join the opposition?

Thats not a bad idea

But not quite as good as reducing the defecit

But you can keep the check and still cash it.
