Donald Trump plans to distribute record $30 billion tariff collection among Americans: Who are eligible?

US President Donald Trumps sweeping tariffs on imports are generating record revenue for Washington, now totalling over $152 billion this year alone. While Trump floats the idea of giving Americans a cash dividend from the proceeds, the economic fallout continues. India faces one of the harshest penalties, with a 25 percent tariff. Consumer prices in the US are rising, trade deficits are growing, and economists warn the long-term costs may outweigh short-term gains. Still, the White House shows no signs of backing down.
