US midterms: Trump touts $5,000 payout if Republicans win • FRANCE 24 English

President Donald Trump capped the first day of his Republican Party's ​first-ever midterm convention by proposing to pay every US adult a $5,000 "Trump dividend" if his party wins November's congressional elections. Trump delivered the extraordinary overture during a primetime speech that lasted nearly two hours and firmly placed him at the center of the midterm campaign at a time when his sagging approval ratings could weigh on Republicans' chances.
