President Donald Trump floated with the idea of delivering 20% savings from the Ministry of Government (Doge) directly to the US people on Wednesday on Wednesday.
Trump said 20% savings could be delivered to American citizens in personal checks by tax mutual households, while another 20% would be used to pay for state debt.
“Even a new concept has been considered in which we give 20% of the savings of Doings to American citizens, and 20% goes to paying debt because the numbers are amazing,” Trump told reporters during the event in Miami Beach, Florida.
Users on X, earlier Twitter, set the idea of ”Dividend Doge” Elon Musk, suggesting payments in the amount of $ 5,000 for the first time this week. The owner of the billionaire Tesla said he would “check the president” on the plan.

Journalist Trump asked On the proposal directly during the event on Wednesday night in Florida.
“I love it,” Trump said. “20% of dividends, so to speak, for the money we save by going after waste, fraud and abuse and all other things that happen. I think it’s a great idea.”

Doge so far claims to have saved about $ 55 billion through cuts for USAID, Department of Education and Consumer Protection Office. However, some of Doge’s efforts to reduce costs are under legal challenge.
Doga is currently planned to exist until July 4, 2026, after which the organization will dissolve.
Trump did not clarify what his administration would do with the remaining 60% of the savings of the reach if he moves forward with the plan.
