“The line up for a pay out from the Trump fund”

May 21, 2026·41m

Ayman Mohyeldin is in for Nicolle Wallace. Ayman covers the ongoing backlash to the nearly $1.8 billion fund set up by the Trump administration to potentially pay out Trump supporters and allies. Among those lining up to cash out are disgraced Congressman George Santos, Jan 6 Capitol rioters, and the mypillow guy Mike Lindell. Later, Ayman covers new Fox News polling which finds that Trump is deeply unpopular, especially on the economy. This polling comes on the heels of Trump attempting to get funding approved for his vanity projects, such as a new arch in Washington DC and a ballroom in the East Wing of the White House.
