Donald Trump is making some big moves, and none of it is sitting well with Democrats.
The latest move by Trump is hold back aid for South Africa over alleged racism.
According to Trump, the government is planning a massive land grab against white farm owners to redistribute the land to black farmers, but, there are a few complications.
Take It
This move is very similar to what happened in Zimbabwe, and it could be just as disastrous.
When that government snatched up land for redistribution, black farmers were unable to replicate the success of the previous farmers, putting the country in food crisis.
In South Africa, they want to grab the land without compensation for the current landowners.
Trump addressed this, having posted, “South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY. It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention.
“A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see. The United States won’t stand for it, we will act. Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!”
The second problem, at least from what I have read, is that black people in the country are mostly not interested in owning these farms, which would all but guarantee a food crisis in the country.
According to reports, South Africa receives almost $300 million a year in aid from the United States, which is utterly baffling to me when you consider the new government is not even US-friendly.
The new leaders have coddled up to Russia and China, so why would we be giving them money? If they need cash, let China give it to them.
I would also note, new leadership in the country has supported some terrorist organizations, so again, why are we sending them money?
