President Donald Trump just revealed a surprising update — Americans might receive tariff rebate checks as part of a White House “concept” that could refund some of the $300 billion in tariff revenue. Trump says there's "a lot of money coming in" and hinted at possibly sending $600 checks per adult and child, similar to proposals from lawmakers like Senator Josh Hawley.

But will it actually happen? Treasury officials are skeptical, and economists warn these rebate checks could fuel inflation during a time of full employment. This video breaks down what Trump said, how much money is involved, and whether you might see a check in your mailbox.

00:00What if the government sent you a check for just paying your bills?
00:03President Trump just teased something big, tariff rebate checks for Americans.
00:08He says, a lot of money is coming in from the tariffs,
00:11and hinted at turning that into cash dividends for the people.
00:15Sounds like free money, right?
00:17But hold on.
00:18This idea isn't solid yet.
00:20Trump says it's a concept, not a plan.
00:24He wants to pay down the national debt first,
00:26but admits there's a chance that some of the $300 billion in revenue could go back to you.
00:32In fact, one proposal from Senator Josh Hawley could give $600 per adult and child,
00:37meaning a family of four could receive $2,400.
00:41But experts are sounding the alarm.
00:44Some say sending out checks during full employment could fuel inflation.
00:48Others warn it might backfire and raise prices even more,
00:51since tariffs are already inflationary.
00:53So, will these checks ever come?
00:56For now, it's a big maybe.
00:58But with $100 billion already collected and more on the way,
01:02it's a story worth watching.
01:04Because when money talks, people listen.
