选民们并不相信唐纳德·特朗普总统能兑现其新承诺：如果共和党在本次中期选举中保持参众两院的多数席位，将向符合条件的美国民众发放5000美元红利支票。
特朗普上周在达拉斯举行的共和党全国委员会中期会议上公布了这项提议，该提议引发了全国性辩论，讨论这些付款在经济上是否可行，以及它们是否会真正落地。
当被问及对该提议的看法以及是否相信它会成真时，大多数选民持怀疑态度，一些人认为这个想法不切实际，并指出国会、国家债务以及此前承诺从未兑现的情况。
有少数人对此抱有希望。

“就我个人而言，我认为这只是一场宣传噱头，我不认为它会真正实现，”一位名叫威廉的选民在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时说道。
“它需要经过国会批准，而且我认为考虑到中期选举……这项提议通过的可能性非常渺茫。”
特朗普的5000美元红利支票在共和党参议员的计划下存在重大限制
正如福克斯新闻数字频道此前报道的那样，这项红利提议需要国会批准，而且目前尚不清楚该计划的资金来源。
另一位选民了解这一困境，并质疑在联邦政府背负40.1万亿美元国家债务的情况下，是否有能力承担这项提议。
“我认为我们没有这笔钱，”来自马里兰州的丹尼尔说道。“而且我认为如果我们真的有钱，肯定应该用在其他几个方面，而不是这个。”

来自弗吉尼亚州亚历山大市的莉兹的态度更为明确，称这个想法“完全是胡说八道”。
“我根本不相信那个人说的任何话，”她在谈到特朗普时补充道。
另一位选民提及了此前他们认为未能兑现的承诺：“我记得上次他承诺发放刺激支票和其他一些东西，结果一样都没兑现。”
总统辩称这些支票将通过关税收入提供资金，但据估计该计划总耗资约1.2万亿美元，这一总额远远超过了特朗普任期内联邦政府通过关税政策征收的创纪录关税收入。

一些选民表示他们支持这项提议，认为纳税人的钱应该分给辛勤工作的美国民众。

“我认为他将发放范围限定在了美国公民和有工作的成年人身上，”一位支持者告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。
“我们已经给了太多不该得到这笔钱的人，”他们补充道。“现在是时候让辛勤工作的美国民众拿到他们应得的钱了。”

Voters have a blunt message for Trump about his idea to dole out $5,000 checks

Voters aren’t convinced that President Donald Trump will make good on his new promise to send eligible Americans $5,000 dividend checks if Republicans maintain their majorities in the House and Senate this midterm cycle.
The proposal, which Trump unveiled during the Republican National Committee’s midterm convention in Dallas last week, has ignited a national debate over whether the payments are financially feasible — and whether they’ll ever become reality.
Asked what they thought of the proposal, and whether they believed it would ever become reality, most voters were skeptical, with several dismissing the idea as unrealistic while pointing to Congress, the nation’s debt and previous promises they said never materialized.
A few were hopeful.

“Personally, I think it’s just a publicity stunt and I don’t think that it’s ever gonna happen,” a voter named William said when speaking with Fox News Digital.
“It’ll need to go through Congress, and I don’t think with the midterm elections… the possibility of that happening is just so far down the road.”
TRUMP’S $5,000 DIVIDEND CHECKS WOULD COME WITH A MAJOR CATCH UNDER GOP SENATOR’S PLAN
As Fox News Digital previously reported, the dividend proposal would require congressional approval, and it’s unclear where the money would come from to fund the program.
Another voter was clued into the dilemma and questioned whether the federal government, under it’s 40.1 trillion in national debt, could afford the proposal.
“I don’t think we have the money for that,” said Daniel from Maryland. “And I think if we did, it should be going a couple different other places than that for sure.”

Liz from Alexandria, Virginia, was even more blunt, calling the idea “absolute nonsense.”
“I don’t believe a word that man ever says,” she added in reference to Trump.
Another cited previous promises they believed had fallen short. “Last time I remember he promised a stimulus and a couple other things. None of that happened,” the voter said.
The president argued the checks would be funded through tariff revenue — but with an estimated price tag of roughly $1.2 trillion, the total needed far exceeds the record customs duties the federal government has collected under Trump’s tariff agenda.

Some voters said they welcomed the proposal, arguing that taxpayer dollars should go to hardworking Americans.

“I think he’s limiting it to American citizens and adults who work,” one supporter told Fox News Digital.
“We’ve given a hell of a lot of money to people who don’t deserve it,” they added. “It’s about time hardworking citizens of America get the money they deserve.”
