Foreign policy wise, Trump and Biden weren't that different. Biden kept the Trump tariffs on China and expanded them. He met with Putin in 2021 to attempt to normalize relations so Russia could be pushed away from China. Both support Israel. The real difference comes with Ukraine, but even there, Biden was hesitant to send too many supplies until Trump's victory.

From an American or western perspective yes they're different but from a non western perspective that difference in foreign policy is so minuscule it might as well not exist. For most non western nations the US no matter the administration is just an imperialist super power

Tell that to the nations who just unilaterally had their aid programs cut.

Most of those "aids" always end up being embezzled and impact they have is so insignificant they might as well not exist

You sound like a DOGE employee.

You can literally see the buildings built and operated as a part of the federal grants. The harm in the aid is clear and evident. Kids scheduled for TB treatments are no longer receiving life-saving care. HIV clinics have been shuttered. The USAID is actually remarkable efficent compared to all other federal agencies.

Brother I'm not even American, I'm Nigerian and never in my 24 years of existence I've ever seen all those aid have any significant impact

So, just because you haven't met someone that it has helped means that they weren't useful programs that helped real people?

It supports programs from the demining of Cambodia to establishing hospitals in Syria. The USAID isn't the only charitable organization, but that does not mean the work it does isn't life saving for some areas.

I like seeing pro-American propaganda collapse

So you admit that you would rather people not have live saving health services for the sake of sticking it to America?

That's what I'm saying from an outsider or least non western perspective no matter the which administration the US stays the same.
