President Donald Trump said people will get a $2,000 stimulus check in a social media post, but it's unlikely to happen. Here's what to know.

Conversations about new stimulus checks are spreading again after President Donald Trump said Americans could soon receive “a dividend of at least $2,000 a person” funded by tariffs.

Trump said his administration planned to issue a $2,000 payment to lower- and middle-income residents using the tariff dividends, while using the remaining proceeds to lower U.S. debt.
