Before you decide on this, consider that if people half way across the world can live a better life, it’s better for all of us. Helping countries develop is great and we should invest in that. Poivrière is sure not speaking about cutting funding to Israel, or suporting the idea that there is a genocide happening in Gaza.
Go look up what exactly he means by “useless funding” before taking this at face value. And not just from this article, but from his political agenda.
There is no plan, just a history of bad planning. This is a dog whistle and nothing more.
