WASHINGTON / LONDON (IT BOLTWISE) – Former US President Donald Trump has made a controversial proposal that would provide a one-time dividend of $2,000 for American citizens. This is to be financed from customs revenue, which, according to Trump, is running into trillions. The proposal comes amid economic challenges such as inflation and risks from artificial intelligence.

Donald Trump, the former President of the United States, recently made a proposal on the social platform Truth Social that is causing a stir. He plans to give American citizens a one-time dividend of at least $2,000. This payment is to be financed from customs revenues, which, in his opinion, could bubble up to enormous amounts and even pay off the USA’s high debts.
The proposal comes at a time when the US is facing various economic challenges. Inflation remains a pressing problem, even though Trump speaks of “almost no inflation.” In fact, the inflation rate was recently at 3.0 percent. There are also growing concerns about the impact of artificial intelligence on the labor market, particularly with regard to possible mass layoffs and rising energy costs.
Trump’s plan stipulates that citizens with higher incomes will be excluded from the dividend. This could be seen as an attempt to bolster his core constituency, which has felt neglected in recent years. Democrats made gains in recent elections, putting pressure on Trump to take actions that appeal to his supporters.
The idea of distributing cash benefits as a relief measure is not new. Trump had already made similar considerations in the past, but did not pursue them further. Given the current economic situation and internal criticism, he now seems determined to implement this proposal. However, experts warn about the long-term effects of such a measure, particularly in terms of national debt and the stability of the economy.
Another aspect that creates uncertainty is the rapid progress in the field of artificial intelligence. While technology offers tremendous opportunities, it also presents risks that cannot be ignored. Concern about a possible AI bubble on the stock market is growing, and the high housing costs in metropolises like New York are making the situation even worse.
Despite these challenges, Trump remains optimistic. He speaks of “record stock prices” and massive investments in the USA, with new plants and factories springing up like mushrooms. Whether his proposal for a dividend for US citizens will actually be implemented and what impact it might have remains to be seen.
