USAID is one of the greatest acts of soft power that significantly increase favorability towards America for those whom life is saved thanks to its aid.

Attacking and dismantling US aid isnt just grossly stupid and irresponsible, its also a fundamentally traitorous attack against our own country, and an act of terrorism against those who survived thanks to it, only to find it suddenly cut off.
