@jolyonThe legality of offering $5K checks to voters who back a specific party is the real question here. It's hard to ignore that while Republicans voted last week to condemn socialism, the Vice President just introduced a $9K welfare plan for stay-at-home parents and the President promised those $5K checks contingent on voting Republican. The combined cost of these measures sits around $1.6 trillion. Marjorie Taylor Greene pointed out that this creates a situation where voters receive socialism regardless of which party they choose. FmrRepMTG noted that Trump and Vance are essentially rolling out socialist policies even as their own party condemns them. The core issue remains: how is it legal in the U.S. for a candidate to promise money in exchange for votes?
