What the evidence establishes

Reuters reported that Trump was considering a distribution, not announcing an enacted payment program. This replaces the previous unsupported Abandoned label. The source establishes discussion of the proposal; it does not establish a binding payment commitment or a later formal abandonment.

Tracker synthesis from the linked documents and reporting; this status is not a rating assigned by those sources.

The assessment date identifies the evidence summarized here. A later catalogue review or automated check does not make an older assessment a new investigation.
