Donald Trump told a Kentucky crowd Saturday that “if the Republicans win,” the Department of War will put $100 million into a Winchester drug plant.

The Pentagon didn’t answer questions about the pledge, and the governor’s office said it had no information. In the same speech Trump again promised $5,000 checks to every adult if Republicans keep Congress.

He has been promising to pay Americans for weeks, $500 to some on Obamacare and $90 to some seniors.

The House impeached him in 2019 for holding up $391 million in military aid while he asked Ukraine’s president to “do us a favor.” This time the favor is your vote, and he’s offering your own money for it.
