Trump's $2,000 Tariff Dividend: Political Promise or Economic Risk?

President Trump promised Americans $2,000 payments from tariff revenue, but experts caution that the revenue generated is unlikely to cover such payouts due to lower-than-claimed tariff income and existing commitments to debt reduction and tax cuts. The proposal lacks detailed plans and legal clarity, and the actual cost of tariffs to Americans exceeds the proposed dividend amount, making the promise unlikely to be fulfilled as stated.
