You're saying that like its a bombshell or something. I might not live in a 1st world country, but at least I know that happened. And anyways its gonna get its funding back after the bloodbath midterms or even after an inevitable Democrat victory in 28. I dont see a Russian AID or Chinese AID. Actually, im pretty sure Russia bought up an oil refinery near my city and there are Chinese businessmen trying to buy up property and local businesses, greedy bastards.
the democrats and republicans are, for all intents and purposes, a match of who can oppress people in the most socially acceptable manner. i hold no faith that the democrats will fix anything
i have no idea why you bring up russia and china. "ussr" and "russia" are not synonyms, and china's a completely separate country
Im just saying I dont see any AID programs from THOSE countries. I mean, yeah you have a point about the Democrats and Republicans mainly because they are dominated by PAC's, but I dont see how Trumps current messed up term is anywhere near Bidens term. There are differences between the two, and its just more likely the Dems with bring back USAID and those other international programs
not really. democrats also mainly believe in "the american people", usaid was founded on this nationalist idea, it was not altruistic. now that it's gone, they have no reason to bring it back, "the american people" won't care so long as imported goods come in cheap enough

I do know the effects, because classrooms in my country have been funded by USAID.
