Why does former President Trump question the $21 million U.S. fund for voter turnout in India?
Trump questions the rationale for the United States providing $21 million to India for voter turnout initiatives because he believes India has sufficient financial resources of its own. He specifically points out that India is one of the highest taxing countries in the world and 'got a lot of money,' suggesting the country can fund its own electoral processes without U.S. assistance. The former president's critique appears to be part of a broader concern about U.S. foreign aid allocations, implying that economically self-sufficient countries like India should not receive such funding when America faces its own financial challenges, as indicated by his comment that 'We can hardly get in there.'
