Trump has long understood how to use humor to his advantage President Donald Trump has sparked nationwide interest by suggesting American families could receive rebate cheques funded by billions in tariff revenue, though the proposal faces significant hurdles in Congress and questions about its economic impact. Trump is considering sending Americans a 'dividend' of $2,000, an idea he floated in an One America News Network (OANN) interview while touting collections that he claims could reach $1 trillion a year. Treasury data show that tariff receipts surged in late summer, and the Supreme Court will hear a pivotal case on the legality of the emergency tariffs on November 5, 2025.
