Trump pitches 'Trump accounts' for kids as affordability talk fades at Georgia rally

At a Marietta, Georgia rally, Trump dismissed affordability as a Democratic talking point while promoting his economic agenda, including new 'Trump accounts' that would seed every newborn with $1,000 from the federal government and allow up to $5,000 a year in parental contributions, funds controllable until age 18 for uses like college, a home, or starting a business; the plan would cost about $17 billion through 2028 and was supported by multiple GOP candidates in attendance. The speech touched on inflation and gas prices, and Trump repeated a claims of vast pledged investments—figures economists view with skepticism—while criticizing opponents such as Democrat Jon Ossoff.
