In Clear Bribery Attempt, Trump floats idea to give Americans 20% of ‘savings’ from Doge cost-cutting

by Scott Creighton

(As Donald Trump's poll numbers hit HISTORIC lows for this point in his second term (1 month in) (see here, here and here) he and Elon The Great come up with a plan to BUY Americans' approval of his fascist plans: promises to pay middle and upper class households $5,000 of the looted booty they are stealing from the American people. This is wild. Their policies are unfavorable as well. Also turns out they are committing FRAUD while pretending to root out FRAUD and CORRUPTION. This is wild.)

BRIBERY of DOGE (corruption)


 
 


 

FRAUD of DOGE (after break)

 

(Someone online took the time to do the math on the DOGE 'savings' which they claim comes to 55 billion dollars so far, way off from the 2 trillion they are looking for. When he added it up it only came to 16 billion by the numbers DOGE provided themselves. He also found that one of those numbers, an 8 billion dollar contract they froze was actually, according to their own record published on  both their Twitter feed and their website, 8 million dollars which dropped their 16 billion in savings to only 8. A far far cry from the 55 billion they are claiming. That news went viral so you know Musk's DOGE boys did? They altered the documents to it said 8 billion. They committed fraud in an effort to help maintain approval from the public as they go after fraud.)

Donald Trump has appeared to embrace a proposal to share a portion of the cuts in US government spending made by Elon Musk’s “department of government efficiency” (Doge) with all US households in the form of checks, intensifying concerns about inflation potentially rising again.

Trump addressed the idea in a speech at an investment conference in Miami on Wednesday, telling attendees: “There’s even under consideration a new concept, where we give 20% of the Doge savings to American citizens, and 20% goes to paying down debt.”

Trump suggested the policy would incentivize Americans to “participate in the process of saving us money” by reporting suspected government waste to boost their own share of the funding cuts.

When a reporter later asked Trump about the proposal as the president flew back to Washington on Air Force One, he said: “I love it.”

James Fishback, CEO of the investment firm Azoria, first raised the idea of a so-called “Doge dividend” in a memo he shared on social media. The memo suggested households could receive checks of $5,000 if Doge successfully cuts $2tn in government funding, as Musk has promised.

Musk appeared to react favorably to the proposal, replying to Fishback’s post: “Will check with the President.”...
