Former president of Kenya mocks countries who are upset Trump that said he won’t give blank checks anymore to foreign governments.
“Why are you crying? It’s not your government! He has no reason to give you anything. You don’t pay taxes in America.” pic.twitter.com/Oe614c8sFT

Foreign aid has a place where it advances US interests abroad. That to me is a very narrow set of circumstances. Giving an ally who trades a mineral strategic to the US aid in return for a favorable price on that mineral is valid. Giving every country on earth money to buy condoms is not a valid US interest. The world basically views the US as Uncle Sugar and it’s time that changed. It was time that changed forty years ago.
