How do you eat a leviathan? One bite at a time. That’s the approach the Trump administration and Elon Musk are taking in their goal to cut the federal budget by $2 trillion. A brilliant first step was targeting the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the agency responsible for foreign aid. Though USAID accounts for only 1% of the massive federal budget, it has become a strategic point of contention. At a time when many Americans are struggling to make ends meet and entire communities are reeling from recent disasters, the decision to cut foreign aid places Democrats in a difficult position. They must now defend foreign aid, even as they face criticism for not prioritizing their constituents at home. How did Trump and Musk set this trap for the Democrats, and how did the Democrats fall into it? Join the conversation and get answers to this question and more on According2Sam episode #284.
