probably half of that "aid" is just us buying intel, access to naval and air refueling stations on the other side of the globe, access to rare earth metals, access to oil, votes in international matters, etc for pennies on the dollar. that "aid" is very good for us.
but yeah, the other half is stuff like educational genderspecial porn for brown people

lol, none of that stuff needs to be "bought"/can easily be attained thrpugh pressure from other means. Also the USAID isnt the only dept that furnishes such wasteful use of taxpayer dollars on "foriegn aid". We should cut off all foreign aid. Most countries do fine without it, butt unlike them we have the worlds largest economy and most advanced military.

DURR WE CAN like JUST THREATEN ANYONE ANYWHERE TO GIVE US WHATEVER WE WANT as if we have the leverage to do that to literally everyone but go off i guess
also like meanwhile russia and china do foreign aid the way i suggested, telling poors frick yeah, well give you a million NEETbux per year if you sign a 100-year lease on your airbase thats sitting right on top of an oil field
we can boss around colombia, canada, mexico, etc, but how tf are we gonna boss around anyone in the south china sea if china's offering money and protection without your blustering bullshit?

thats a great way to describe yourself.
thats not the way the USAID was doing it butt go off
whats my blustering bullshit? Also the USAID doesnt offer protection, subhuman, thats the US militarh. Also the USAId was hardly the only agency giving US taxpayer dollars to foriegn nations/only avenue for foreign aid. Butt you wouldnt get that bc ur dumb as shit with your subhuman brokebrain.

theyre already a world power and they get a lot more for their foreign aid instead of jist giving money aeay to countries that hate them like the US does. The US ought be more carrot and less stick. Its not like giving away money is the only way to maintain influence/control.

"soft power" is only power if there's a credible threat of flexing it. For example, the USA was giving twice as much money to the WHO than China, yet the WHO sucked China's peepee and not America's, why is that? Because they were reasonably sure that China could withdraw their funding whenever they mentioned Taiwan by name, while American purse was controlled by idiots with the same delusion that you have, that giving someone money gives you power over them so you should never stop giving them money or you lose that power.

I don't really get why people don't like Trump swinging his peepee around. Like yeah he's r-slurred, but what use is soft power if there's no threat? Being toothless and smart, just makes people take advantage of you. While being an r-slured chimp at least makes people think twice about what they offer you.

Just ending it is r-slurred unless we build a new, more transparent USAID that doesn't employ treasonous scum who want to use it to fight the culture war.
Hot take: Not everything about foreign aid is bad, Giving impoverished nations boatloads of corn flour and fortified peanut butter in exchange for access to their military bases is a good thing that we should be doing, actually. Just, you know...no dumb shit like 50 million for condoms that Gazans won't even use.
