Good. He seems to NOT understand where the borders of America are located. How is it Constitutional to give American taxpayes' money to other countries and NON-CITIZEN$? Are they FINANCIALLY LOOTING the American people? Drive around America, you will see a DISGRACEFUL situation that actual Americans are homeless, hungry and in dire need of HELP. It is BEYOND INSANE to tell Americans that they MUST SUFFER so that people in other countries can have a better life.
