Axelrod: ‘Stupid’ USAID Cuts ‘More Radical than Any Spending’
Breitbart ^ | 02/07/2025 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/07/2025 11:01:36 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

CNN senior political commentator and former Obama adviser David Axelrod said Friday on “Newsroom” that President Donald Trump’s cuts to USAID were “stupid” and “more radical than any spending.”

Axelrod said, “I am appalled by what happened at USAID, and I think it’s not just a blow to humanitarian causes and democratic causes around the world, but it’s a stupid move for our own national security. It creates a tremendous opening for China and Russia and foes of our country who want to fill the breach that we leave in a lurch here.”

Looks Like idiot axelrod jumped the shark. Because earlier i was reading how he was lecturing democrats to stay away from fighting Trump on USAID...because it was a losing issue.

Looks like he just got the memo.

His comments side by side with these examples of USAID’s activities illustrate well how nonsensical his remarks are.

Ignoramous or enemy agent. I cent know which. Perhaps both combined in a single package. No wonder nobody watches CNN anymore. Many folks never even heard of it now

I refuse to listen to a politician who starts their argument with the word stupid. Think it through people and use your language skills. You are smarter than a fifth grader, aren’t you.

Russia going to do trans things Dave?
Around 300 employees left of 14,000 to dole out food and medicine. That’s more than enough.
If Russia moves in and funds trans operas, good for them.
