No it's not

Caveat Emptor. The GOP has for years made it clear they only care about the fetus, not the child. That $5k will be the last bit of help you get to raise your child. After that, they will cut SNAP, and Headstart, and anything else that will help the CHILD develop. And in Trump's Amerikka ...1/2

taking that $5k would be opening the door to government control of your child. Expose your child to ideas they don't like or information they disagree with and you may find your child "removed".

It does not cover copay... Rich people do not know this problem...

I was fortunate to have uncomplicated and unmediated births, plus “good” health insurance, and still owed ~ $1,500 out of pocket for each kid. $5,000 is not an incentive unless that’s monthly thru college.

*unmedicated

I needed to have an emergency C-section. Hospital copay around $2200, plus another $600 for the anesthesiologist and OB/GYN (not hospital employees). With good insurance. 15 years ago.

5k bonus in a country where birth costs 25k and you may get a few days of unpaid maternity leave.

A $5k bonus won't even cover the hospital bill for delivering a baby, let alone anything else.

I never hear poor people worrying about birth rates leading to "societal collapse", I only hear oligarchs and their media mouth pieces parroting this. It's almost as the people who exploit human labor want to make sure that human labor is always cheaper and cheaper, forever.

Does that even fund the hospital bill?

$5k isn't enough incentive anyway. Better solution would be (not in order, not all inclusive): single payer Healthcare, paid family/other leave, fix school funding, fix housing, etc. Writing checks to have kids is not the answer.

They didn’t defend it in any way shape or form they thought it was complete bullshit. It’s insulting and they knew it so the article is wrong.

Except Alyssa.

We're overpopulated. In my lifetime, the population doubled in 64 years. That's why land, housing, and food prices have skyrocketed. When the Interstate Highway System opened, the roads were wide open. Now they're packed. And, the Climate Crisis is reducing our food supply and habitable space.

Elon and his ilk want an unlimited supply of poor, uneducated people willing to work for nothing. It’s a capitalist dream scenario.

wait till they announce its called the Anglo-Christian Baby Bonus

You know what might create a baby boom? Universal healthcare, including abortion and insurance, paid parental leave, a sound Dept. of Education, Head Start programs, affordable daycare, and on and on. $5000 is an insult.

Even with very good BCBS insurance my grandchilds birth this year was 5k. Normal labor and delivery. 1 night stay for both. Daycare is 400 a week. These people have no idea what working folks are dealing with. Anyone with children in needs a 20% raise just to stay even with inflation.

Why would anyone need money to raise children if we are going to be so wealthy and better off after the tariffs start working, right? Right?

Yeah, good luck getting those money. Here's a 6 months (at least) waiting list while you pay for your childcare expense out of pocket. Happy parenting!

Who ever she fucked is she is disgusting disgraceful pathetic despicable

$5k? Do these people not understand what kids cost?

5 grand should cover what it takes to raise a child, it even covers you being paid a living wage to do it. *snark

What about the $400,000 it will take to raise a child til he’s 18?

Well, look at it as $395,000. Makes sense NOW, right?

My question is who will be the one to choose which women will be eligible to have that 5,000?? hmmmm.

Alyssa is such an affirmative action hire. She got the View job not because she was special, but because they needed a white conservative. Everybody knows Trump's baby incentive is a ploy to get more white babies. To be a Trump critic, she sane washes his crazy way too much.

So ladies, who out there would have more babies because of the trump plan? I know I wouldn't! They obviously have no idea what it takes to raise a child financially, mentally and physically.

If it comes from the government isn't that called welfare?

Five THOUSAND DOLLARS! Seriously, $5000 is a tiny drop in a very large bucket of expenses.

It seems the only people who realize that an increase in population is not sustainable with current resources are those younger than 20 and some older Americans who are worried about their grandkids. #ScienceMatters

$5000 and a new baby will not last longer than the hospital copay for its birth.

Fuck off view hosts

Mother Heroine (Russian: Мать-героиня, romanized: Mat'-geroinya) is the highest title of the Russian Federation, awarded to mothers with Russian citizenship who have given birth to and raised ten or more children who are Russian citizens. Krasnov is copied Putin. This is sick & Barbaric 🤬🤬🤬

Summarizing Whoopie’s response: “The Trump administration doesn’t know how women's bodies work or what it costs to raise a child or just have a child.” And my two cents: Or how hard it is to re-enter the workforce after stepping out to raise your children for a number of years. #Misogyny #Protests

Why not make it so that the average worker can afford to live a happy and comfortable life so that they can devote the time and energy to raise a family? Rhetorical... It would require corporations and the rich to curb their greed and pay a fair wage.

It's insane like trump

Well if $5000 is an incentive then you maybe don’t have the means to financially support a child.

Young women may receive $5,000 today to become pregnant, but they'll need to spend $29,419 a year to raise that same child, at the same time that many benefits are being clawed back by Trump and DOGE.

They don't have to just get pregnant. They have to bear the child.

And little Brandon or Ashley will have live with the fact that mommy and daddy only had them for the CA$H.

Diapers for Dollars.

40k for child care… 39k to give birth…that insurance barely covers. 5k is insufficient…and insulting.

Women can be misogynists !

This is the best the can come up with? what about free health care, paid family leave, affordable housing, getting paid a living wage? With this terrible idea, some people will have babies to get paid the lump sum, people who aren't even ready to provide for a family!

I forgot, affordable child care!

Anyone with kids will tell you, $5k is such a crumb to drop. Gone in the first year. Kamala wanted to give people $25k to buy a house for those kids to live in. That is a step in the right direction and helps people actually care for children.

Haha the gulf countries give 3K a month until the kid graduates highschool LOL. Then universities are free. The US you gotta pay for everything and always need to read the fine print even when you are on your death bed. No thanks , the US is slowly giving me EVANGELICAL ISIS but with no healthcare

Interesting. When this administration is already deporting young US Citizens.

The birth rate going down is one of the best ways to heal this planet.

*free prenatal care & more early years support * increase min wage * well-subsidised childcare when work is essential * closing the gender pay gap for women returning to careers * ensure women’s familial contribution has a $ value in separation/divorce * do more on domestic abuse =more babies

MAGA morons.

When they talk about babies, they’re not talking about brown babies or black babies or any other color babies only white babies. They’ve already said that they’re not gonna offer that too. Low income people.

They’re canceling head start, and 5k doesn’t even cover the birthing costs of a baby. These are not serious people

$5,000.00 is nothing compared to what you need to support a child with. Unless it’s every week. But we all know that would never happen.

So the taxpayer is going to pay for this and not child healthcare? Who is going to help these families raise 10 kids?

they yearn for the mines

Trumps plan is to have the kids start having kids ASAP. Infinite money glitch!

No one will raise these children.They will be neglected.They will work earlier,probably in the regimes military or one of the many factories we will have, &they will die earlier.We thought our society was becoming like that of Denmark but no we were going the North Korea route &didn’t see it coming.

No it is not. Especially because they don’t want all women to have babies. They just want white women. 🤮🤬

Except trump’s actual desire would be $5,000 to white parents only

White, upper-class parents. They don't want us poors breeding.

Lie $5,000 will at all offset the cost of pregnancy, giving birth, and then raising a child to be a productive citizen... Offer me a million dollars, then maybe I'll think about it.

LOL, she thinks 5k exceeds the delivery cost so it can be banked for future? Lady, tons of people have $5000+ deductibles, or worse have no insurance at all still. But I'm sure whatever network employs them offers Cadillac health care with a low deductible that she meets in the first week of Jan.

We all know their will be fine print in that Trump Birther Promo: 1. Only White American or Eastern European Families will qualify 2. No Mixed Race or Non Whites will qualify. 3. No Liberal Families will qualify 4. Must swear allegiance to Trump 5. Must Promise they will vote for MAGAT Priorities

Even if there isn’t fine print, the math doesn’t add up. Just having a baby costs tens of thousands of dollars, and 18 years of food, clothes, medicine, bedding, toys, education, etc. isn’t cheap, either. Then there’s the lack of paid maternal/paternal leave. It’s just a bad investment right now.

Oh Myyyyyy (sorry George) how people forget. Seems like they tried this once before. encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/a...

When „Mutterkreuz“?

All I can think of is the Arrested Development joke. Except "It's Just 1 baby, what could it cost, $5000"

24/7 Pregnancy at about 280 days would be 6,720 hours. $5,000 is paying 75 cents per hour and you only get paid if you produce a live baby, I'll bet. What a scam!

Trump voters love scams. But I guess that’s a circular argument.

This is why I choose not to watch "The View".

Griffin is only one of five. The others are intelligent.

Americans are already getting $2k per child annually via income tax credits and the birthrate is still declining. That's $72,000 for 2 kids over an 18 year period. Why in the world do they think throwing another $5k will make a difference? Parents need actual support like reliable child care

It's just another grift, the orange demagogue won't be around to hand out the first award even under the 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘵 case scenario... for the woman!

Only white babies of educated parents. Minorities and poor white folks will never see a dime.

I'm sure he'll Executive Order a law that provides free, healthy school lunches to these new children as well. Of course he will, he always thinks of the overall picture and has the long game in mind. Right? Riiiigghhhhhht?!

She will hopefully soon go away like John McCain’s daughter-she always reminded us of that.

Poor women will sign up for this so they get the 5k, then public assistance if that’s still a thing, and as long as they can have kids and get the $$ they’ll do it. May sound bad but I know women like this.

How about the US government just cover the cost of childbirth for mother and infant, and keep a substantial EIC for children? That first part would enrage Health Insurance companies, no doubt.

I had the baby boy and Grandpa Vincenzo gave me a yacht. Don't settle for five grand girls

Geezus😖

If you want to increase birth rates pay people a wage that will allow them to support a family. 5k is gone in a few months. What comes after that? Poverty?

The View always has a fascist on panel so I refuse to ever watch or even consider anything they discuss.

Sadly a lot of people that need that money can’t afford to have a baby…. 5k isn’t squat when you’re raising a child

Let’s be clear that the only birth rate this crew of natal-Nazis want to increase is the white birth rate.

Right because if they actually cared about population decline, they wouldn't be removing hard-working immigrants.

They’re good with white controlled births. www.newsweek.com/republican-k...

That kind of law will send migrants elsewhere lol... they won't want to marry incels.

100% agreed.

So paying women like whores?

A bunch of disgruntled women bitching on Tv.

Ah, yes. Those young people who can't afford a child will surely be enticed by five thousand whole dollars. Quite aside from the medical bills, and not even taking formula into account, aren't diapers like *at least* $20 a pack?

Sorry white babys with black hair are only $ 250 dollars

💯 Acting like a measly $5,000 is going to help anything. Let alone that is after getting rid of everything else for families. 🤮

Didn't Mussolini do this? I think he did. Follows Mango Mussolini, called him Mussolini in 2015 when he came down the escalator. Gave my insured daughter and son-in-law 5K for each grandkid to pay of their med debt. I was shocked they still owed 5K on a natural childbirth.

Probably $7500 if they have blue eyes.

Alyssa Farah Griffin is a joke. She seriously thinks this is better than nothing? To offer $5,000 to have and raise a child? Now that’s what you call clueless! Good grief 🤦‍♀️

Nobody is having a whole baby they weren't already going to have for $5K. It won't increase the birthrate. Europe tried a substantially more generous version of this and it made life easier for families (good! let's do that) but didn't increase the birthrate. Embrace immigration.

The hospital visit alone costs more than $5000. Are you kidding me?

Straight out of Fascism propaganda 🙄🙄

its soo much easier to follow than to lead; isnt it! when you follow; you must be lead! usually off a fucking cliff! lead! never follow!

$5k is measly and won't cover squat. How about decent healthcare, affordable childcare (oh wait, maga trads against all that).

Does she have children? Women are urged to be cows. If women say no, they are ostracized. This is nothing new.

It does not even begin to cover any significant cost. Clueless entitled people throwing scraps and thinking the peasants should appreciate.

Social security and Medicare are not ENTITLEMENTS they are EARNED BENEFITS

What happens when the $5K runs out in the first year after the baby is born? Donald Trump and his billionaire bros have no clue how much it costs to raise a child in today's world.

$5k wouldn't go very far in the US, doesn't even cover the cost of the medical bills, something that the rest of the world does not penalise people with for having children...

A medal for your service to the fatherland.

She shouldn’t be on the show, any more. So vile!

And she's getting worse every day.

He's freaking out about the polls, and looking for ways to give people money, to raise his popularity. Each child check will be signed by Tubby, and have a certificate naming him the kid's godfather.

This dumb bitch has always been a Trump spokeshole, why is anyone surprised?

Behold the $5,000 bounty for birthing in Babylon—where they’ll hand thee a bonus but abandon thee at daycare, healthcare, and education. Verily, they worship the womb but forsake the child.

I asked an African refugee friend with 4 kids why she was having another. "I need the money," she said. Earned Income Credit was $3,500 per kid per year, and she needed a new car. I think Trump wants white kids though.

She's no slouch, by the way. She has a hair braiding & weaving salon, 3 houses she bought at tax auction and fixed up, and her oldest is about to graduate high school with AP credits toward an RN degree. Refugees making America great!

Trump Tw*t

🤮

Anyone defending that nonsense, is so detached from what it take to rear a child for an average American that their opinion on the matter is entirely worthless.

Theyre going to need all the child workers they can get for when the sweatshops start opening here in the states.

She's awful, you can tell they low key hate her and she tries to relate to the POCs on the panel all the time, it's gross.

Outrageous farrahs entitlement to make pronouncements on what is good ood policy While Obliviously admitting she's totally unaware Republicans cancelled the child tax credit program

We can't wait to see her to get pregnant for $5K...

She and her hub are doing IVF right now.

Ah yes. 5k. That'll offset the 300k it costs to raise a kid.

Where are they producing all these stupid bishes anyway. All the women I know are bright and independent.

I’ve never been interested in this show, solely because they keep including idiots whose opinions I have no time for or interest in.

It cost like 15k for birth in the US (average normal, no complications) and double that for a C-sec. 5k doesn't even cover the birthing cost, then for the next 18 years, you have a responsibility towards raising your kid, 5k ain't cutting it

We had a government introduce a baby bonus in the early 2000s, it encouraged the uneducated, unmarried to reproduce, there were cases where the so called father stood over the mother to sign the money over to him. Bad idea 👎

Gotta breed that idiocracy.

Is it dollar-to-dollar more than some other countries are paying for women to have children? Yes. But a lot of those countries also have lower costs of living, nationalized/affordable healthcare, and parental leave.

This idea is beyond stupid. Tempting people to get pregnant for money instead of because they actually WANT a child.

The women who defend that horror are the worst! Utterly dystopian.

All so SICK!

When you consider how much it takes to raise a kid in the US - this is actually an insult especially when you are simultaneously working on eliminating health care, nutritional programs, and educational programs for 40% of kids.

That would be the economy price on Melania’s internet escort service….

$5000??? That would not even cover a day in the hospital to give birth.

Nope its what the Nazi's did!

But it is insane.

I happily pay taxes, even though I don't have kids. I'm happy to pay for the education of the kid that you had because you wanted a kid. But if you're gonna have a kid because the government bribed you with a pittance, you can pay for it yourself.

Canada can suggest other ways to help raising children. All medical expenses with birth are free. Mothers are given a year in paid maternity leave and when they return to the workforce there is $10 per day day care. Finally there are monthly baby bonuses to help with child raising expenses.

So what's the difference between paying women to have children and the so-called "welfare queen?" Oh wait. I know.

the phrase "welfare queen" .... implies that these women intentionally have multiple children to maximize their welfare benefits, avoid seeking employment, and live extravagantly at the expense of taxpayers." Wikipedia

$5000 won't even cover the hospital bill--since they also plan to doge ACA

$5k per month maybe

He likely increased the cost of having a kid more than that already

$5000 babyfarmers

Who in their right mind could defend that?

Didn’t the nazis give medals to women who had more than a certain amount of children? The mother cross…

But there will be no assistance after the baby is born. They are only interested in fetuses.

You know this is right out of Russia's playbook? They offer incentives for larger families and they are equally as dumb (i.e. annual metro passes and I thought it they got the US equivalent of 10,000 dollars...)

Why is Goldberg portrayed in the photo headline as the opposing voice? She’s as shameless and clueless as all the other hosts. That show is absolute garbage.

substack.com/@danieo9/not...

this is crazy actually cuz anyone who knows anything can tell you that 5k$ doesn’t even make a dent in the total cost of medical bills when having a baby in the US.

Sorry George, $5K is better than a kick in the pants ... this is typical View pearl clutching ...

$5,000 is nothing if you are unlucky and the baby has health problems or disability that may or may not be lifelong. Choosing between house payments or paying for the child’s healthcare needs destroys marriages and families.

That is true, but how about just putting the $5K into an education fund? I think that's what I would do ...

My own experience. One medicine cost $7,000 per month for years which was far more than the current salary. $5,000 would have been useless.

... but yeah, you're right ... medical costs for a sick child, can wipe out $5K ...

In a case like that, yes ... I can't imagine being in that kind of scenario ... even in Canada, not everything is covered, eh ...

The doctor did work out some sort of deal with the manufacturer when we couldn’t afford it so my child basically had guinea pig status but other associated expenses did cause us to lose house we had been buying. It took years to recover financially.

So sorry to hear this, man ...

OMG ... you lost your house???

Is IVF free yet?

I watched the episode, this is not true. Come on George, really....

Yes, it is.

Um, a country as one big breeding farm churning out white babies in exchange for a lifetime of debt? It's a generous offer, but I'm afraid I'll have to pass.

I personally think the view needs to go.

If a $5,000 bonus is enough to get you to have a baby, you can’t afford one.

Explains why my wife threw the remote at the tv this morning. Griffin is an idiot if she buys Trumpie boy's crap. And $5K? Yeah right. Doesn't cover crap when it comes to raising a child.

I can’t stand this woman🤢 she is so stupid!

Not enough of us. Too many of you.

Allyssa has been financing IVF pregnancy for years without success. She is not being objective. 👀 ‘opinion’ . The ‘making-babies-to-order’ industry is something that Trump & Musk are eager to capitalize on 🤑🇺🇸🙄

Our population is not falling. Our citizens birthrate has been below replacement since 1972. Thus, we only have a successful economy due to immigration. Oh, and those property values are only going up because of demand from a growing population.

No it’s not.🤦‍♂️

I’m so disappointed in Farrah for that “ hand maiden tales” type comment. I’ve been watching “The Man In The High Castle “. It’s following this administration to a “T” so to speak.

It's just so stupid. Anyone who has kids knows $5k is meaningless. Especially without social supports like childcare.

Because raising a so called normal, healthy child costs $5K let alone one with special needs. What the actual F?

Do they pay at conception or birth?

What I hate - there's 0 propaganda supporting men to get good jobs or improve themselves so they can find stable relationships and support a family. They just want babies. It's like men are just want sperm donors. When we need plain stable two income households to attempt raising kids safely.

I’m old enough to remember the GOP outrage over “welfare moms”, getting money from the government for having children. Now they’re encouraging it?

This time they mean white people.

White, conservative Christian people in a heterosexual marriage. Long haired freaky people need not apply. - Five Man Electric Band

This world, running out of resources already, certainly does not need more people. How do they even think that would pan out?

That amount probably won't even pay for the birth of that baby and nowhere near what parents have to pay for childcare now. Those people are crazy!

$5000 for having a kid is like tossing out paper towels to victims of a hurricane.

Just make diapers free for the first year. Samma ting.

Down the road, my mom rec’d $5,000 for conceiving me. My adoptive parents were amazing.

And they hate the things that might be solutions, like affordable child care.

I could swear these goons have been going on about welfare queens having a bunch of kids to get government assistance my whole life Somebody check them for whiplash cause that's a hell of an about face

Soooooo completely effed up. It costs between $10 and 15k to have a baby in the US, because remember folks, we don't have universal health care. And, then, do you tell your child, "mommy brought you into this world for $5,000?" Is absolutely everything a fucking transaction to him?

The View has been unwatchable for YEARS. I don’t understand how anyone can sit through that show without throwing something at the TV!

WTAF HERE???

It was defended by Alyssa Farah Griffin. I don't take anything she has to say as honest. She claims to not be behind trump but then defends him at his worst. She's the token republican they always put in that seat. Some might say she's the DEI hire.

Alyssa is my least favorite panel member. Blatantly and unapologetically Republican (and that’s NOT a compliment) 🤮

wow, like it was sorta normal?

Let’s be honest: that show is trash

June 13, 2023 TBS article: "The median cost of a vaginal birth in Florida is $31,983.52 ($12,603.64 for those with insurance.) For a C-section, that number jumps to $41,299.31 ($15,445.17 for insured patients.)" $5,000 doesn't even cover half of the insured patient cost.

People who want that $5000 are probably poor and uneducated and won't use it well. Probably. Definitely not an answer. Definitely not.

Want to mention that the Nixon Administration paid parents to limit themselves to two children. That's why there's an unbalance number of Baby Boomers to Generation X.

Hey, could you make economic situations favorable to raising children? Like, livable wages, single payer Healthcare, maternity leave, bodily autonomy, affordable childcare and education? Nah, best we can do is 5 grand and a pizza party. Here's your robe.

This is not a problem. The world is experiencing an overpopulation problem. We don't need to pay people to have kids. A slight decline in population might actually help.

"We'll give you a $5,000 check for having a baby, that should make up for eliminating the Department of Education, zeroing out SNAP [food stamps], cutting $880 billion from Medicaid, and severely devaluing the American dollar! ...why is nobody taking off their pants?"

Why do Trumpy white women always look bland, like AI creations? Perfect skin, perfect features, perfectly vomitrocious.

🧵 children will be neglected and abused. This will cause domestic violence in the long run. This is a horrendous proposal and does not need to happen under any circumstances. The birth rate is dropping for a reason! People cannot afford to even take care of themselves let alone children!!!!!

Do you realize what this $5,000 reward for having a baby will do? This will cause more singlehanded damage than probably anything Trump has done thus far. Men will convince their partners to have children for the money, some won’t need convincing. Babies are expensive,children will be neglected 🧵

$5000 would be there and gone so fast, but also the reasons why people don't want to bring children into this world should be what is addressed instead, lol.

They want lots of babies. They just don’t want to take care of them. Patriarchy.

Anyone who can be convinced to have a kid for the promise of $5,000 is *probably* not someone who's financially stable enough to have a kid.

Stop being distracted. He’s eliminating the rule of law focus on that.

The people pushing women to have more children are also responsible for babies starving in Africa due to cuts to USAID and for (US citizen) children of parents from Latin American countries being deported. It's very obvious that they only want more white children, preferably from wealthy parents.
