Just once in a while a real news site puts Trump's braggadocio into perspective:
From the BBC:
"The details of what Canada and Mexico conceded, however, paint a more complicated picture.
While Canada agreed to form a joint anti-crime strike force with the US and appoint a "fentanyl tsar", the concrete steps it detailed were all part of a border-security package Canada had previously announced.
Mexico pledged stepped up drug enforcement and 10,000 troops to patrol the US-Mexico border - but those numbers mirror the deployments the nation made in 2019 and again in 2021"

He's just a manchild with an overinflated ego who lacks in the intelligence department, leaders of the other countries have had 4 years to prepare for him and most know how to handle him, he's got the attention span of a goldfish and is easy to placate, you just have to let him think he's won.

Some of the wasted US tax dollars being squandered on
$2 million for sex changes in Guatemala
$6 million to fund “tourism” in Egypt
Millions to the EcoHealth Alliance (Wuhan Lab Leak)
$20 million on an Iraq Sesame Street show
And this is just the tip of the iceberg on the USAID scam

And have you bothered to find out whether any of those things are actually true? Of course not.

I don't need to. You posted them. Nothing you have posted so far has been remotely accurate or true.
I'm bored of doing your research for you.
Come back to us when you have specific links from independent sources that corroborate what you assert and when you understand *why* something was done.
For example your hilarious quote of $20 million dollars being "wasted" on an Iraqi version of Sesame street is actually pretty clever. It's called soft diplomacy. The point of funding the programme was to assist in the humanitarian response to the wars in Iraq and Syria whilst also spreading messages about tolerance and equality. There are millions of displaced and traumatised children. By helping them and their families you start to repair the US reputation and hopefully therefore reduce potential terrorist retaliation against the US in the future. The programme has reached 23 million children across the Middle East and North Africa. So that's less than 1 dollar per kid.
