Trump’s latest campaign email uses a classic fundraising tactic dressed up in meme culture, dangling the idea of a “DOGE check” to grab attention. By framing the email as a poll exclusive to his “TRUMP TRUSTED ONE PERCENT” and setting a two-hour deadline, the message creates a sense of urgency and exclusivity.

The question about sending so-called “savings” from cuts to government agencies and programs back to Americans is less about policy and more about driving engagement and nudging recipients toward the call-to-action links.

The email’s repeated prompts to “RESPOND TO TRUMP” and the urgent language are designed to maximize clicks and, ultimately, donations. The DOGE check itself is purely symbolic; no actual payment is coming.
