US President Donald Trump said that if the Republicans win the congressional elections, he will pay each adult citizen $5,000 with the condition of spending it in the United States.

Trump warned that if the Democrats win, taxes will be raised by $5 trillion and citizens' wealth will be plundered.

WASHINGTON, October 3 - RIA Novosti. US President Donald Trump said that his promise to pay $5,000 to Americans reflects the state of affairs in the country under the Republicans, but if the Democrats win the congressional elections in a month, the Communists will begin to plunder wealth and raise taxes by $5 trillion.

“Our country is doing so well under Republican leadership, only I can make such a big promise, and the Democrats are going crazy: If the Republicans win the House and Senate, I will give every adult citizen $5,000,” Trump said at a rally in Oklahoma.

The only condition would be to spend the money in the United States, Trump explained. If the Democrats win, they will not allow this, the president warned.

"So you can vote for the radical left, the democrats, the communists, who will plunder your wealth, raise your taxes by 5 trillion. They want the biggest tax increase in history," Trump said.

The American leader added that voters should come to the polling stations as if they were voting for him personally, since this is the case, the fate of his administration’s approaches to governing the country is being decided.

In a month, the new composition of the House of Representatives will be determined in the United States, as well as the fate of 35 seats in the Senate. In the current convocation of the House of Representatives there are 218 Republicans, one more legislator enters into a coalition with the party as an independent, this is enough for the majority. In the Senate, the party has 53 seats, the Democrats have 45, and two more are in a coalition with them as independents.
