Can Trump really pay $5,000 to every American adult?
Analysts question if the US president's election year offer is workable, legal or affordable.

US President Donald Trump has offered every adult American $5,000 (£3,700) if Republicans win November's midterm elections, but it is unclear how such a plan would be funded and whether it is legal.
His remarks prompted raucous applause from supporters at a party convention on Wednesday night, although Democrats labelled it an "empty promise".
Trump also told the Republican conference that the money would have to be spent in the US, but it is unclear how that would be monitored.
And legal experts said it was unlikely he could approve such a vast sum via a presidential executive order.
