Who Would Qualify for the $2,000 Payments?
Trump has suggested that high-income earners will not qualify, although he has not provided a specific income threshold. In a recent post on Truth Social, he wrote:
“A dividend of $2,000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone.”
The U.S. Treasury has reported that tariff revenue during Trump’s second term has generated over $220 billion. However, more than 163 million Americans filed tax returns in 2024, according to the IRS, meaning universal $2,000 checks would total roughly $326 billion—exceeding tariff revenue collected so far.
Trump has argued that remaining funds could also contribute toward reducing the nearly $40 trillion national debt, writing:
“All money left over … will be used to substantially pay down national debt.”

A $2000.00 Stimulus Check would help my family very much.
And kick start the economy, which is badly needed.

Yes we could very much use this refund.
Sadly, the democrats will fight this tooth and nail and whittle it down to nothing solely because it was Trump’s idea and it would make the GOP look good. They can’t stand that and their contempt for the citizens is only slightly less than their contempt for Trump. Any tariff money collected will be feasted on by Congress. We will see breadcrumbs at best.
You do realize that this could be passed without dems. The majority of all offices are Rep. They keep making the uninformed believe it’s dems fault with everything.
No, the Rs barely control the House and the Senate and don’t forget the Rinos who fight President Trump and oppose everything he says or tries to do. The Rinos r really dems in disguise and the independents in Congress more often than not side with the dems! It would require more than a single digit majority of Rs in both the House and the Senate for Trump to do all that should be done!
Not at all true. It would take more than a 2 member majority in both the House and the Senate in order for Trump to do what needs to be done. Also there r the FOREVER rinos in Congress who always side with the dems. So, no, the President cannot do exactly what he wants to do.
Thank you Willesha!
(“Sadly, the democrats will fight this tooth and nail”) There are MAGA ones out there I personally know will fight this (Former minister landlord of mine and cousin, and evangelist cousin of his.) Well he complained of not wanting it when the very first ones went out. Let’s see if he’s still preaching the same negativity about these possible stimulus ones as he did the previous administration now there is a new so called “sheriff” in town.
I’d very much appreciate this check! It would help my finances! It would be so special that President Trump cares about his citizens!
I hope you’re plans for helping seniors are successful. It’s hard for me to survive on $800.00 SS, and pay for my solar roof. Thank you for being such a loyal President to America!
I think a stimulus check will help people that struggle to make ends meet.
When a politician takes the oath of office and then violent this oath. Can’t this person be prosecuted??? Or is this do I say not as I do government ???
I support you 100+%, President Trump, but I can’t answer your questions bc they always require donations & I don’t have $ anymore to give. Thank you so much for all you & your amazing family give to the rest of us (even those that don’t seem to appreciate your efforts). There will always be those that are never satisfied I suppose no matter what you do!
AMEN! I get a dozen emails a week asking for “my opinion” on various matters. But when I try to respond, there is no way to do so unless I include a financial contribution.
I’m sure many others feel the same frustration. I often feel that our “opinion” matters only if we’re financially able to send money.
Will all people get a check in the mail box or what it for
We all need to help like people need that check helps people out to pay their rent and their car to and eat to help families and seniors out to pay their rent and medical bills to
Yeah right! When pigs fly!
AI pigs can fly
Not. Sure what your asking here?
These would greatly catch up all my big bills I have. Being under poverty level, it’s extremely difficult to keep up, this word at least bring me current and help my credit report! Please come thru for us.
My boyfriend receives $2,537.00 per month SS for a back injury. He also takes care of me and my granddaughter for everything we need. Is he eligible?
Also, I have no income and I homeschool my granddaughter. I had to apply for a small grant to help with her school supplies, so would I be eligible for any stimulus for us?
Thank you
