50-Year Mortgages? NFL Kickoff Rules? Here’s Where some of Trump’s Latest Jaw-Dropping Musings Stand

Trump proposes unconventional policies including 50-year mortgages and tariff-funded payments despite economic criticism and political hurdles, with some ideas still under consideration.

  • On Wednesday, President Donald Trump floated a string of proposals including 50-year mortgages, and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said advisers are `seriously looking into` them.
  • Trump suggested tariffs could fund `a dividend of at least $2000`, but the $225 billion collected falls short, highlighting funding challenges for the proposed checks.
  • Trump proposed $10,000 bonuses for air traffic controllers and hinted at retaking Bagram Airfield, but the Taliban rejected that idea, leaving the proposal in limbo.
  • Legal and political limits undercut several proposals as Trump’s September directive to enforce death-penalty laws in the District of Columbia faces repeal and voter rejection, while economists and GOP critics panned mortgage ideas and U.N. arrest calls produced no action.
  • The U.S. sovereign wealth fund proposal found a political off-ramp after a February executive order, while various in-limbo proposals described as `still talking about it` remain, including 50-year mortgages and NFL kickoff and Washington Commanders naming proposals.
