Donald Trump plans to make foreign aid conditional on religious freedom

White House officials are reportedly drafting plans to make US foreign aid conditional on how countries treat their religious minorities, in an effort that is seen as a sop to Christian evangelicals in Donald Trump’s base.

🇺🇸🇺🇸💯❤️Trump 2020.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💯❤️Trump

That’s extortion, bribery, tit for tat, squid pro quo. Impeach.

To be fair he's had worse ideas. Although if we based it on a human rights basis he could then stop supporting Dubia and half the states in the USA.

Leftists will not like this.

Foreign aid, after taking care of needed things at home, should only be granted to deserving countries.

Worst Hitler ever

apply that to weapon sales and Saudi are fucked

I'm sure some religions are more equal under Trump's plan.

Only the religion of white pius evangelicals! And all other can step back.

No president has ever fight for religious freedom across the world like President Trump. History will be too kind to him.

MsMariaT So we're bringing our troops home from Saudia Arabia?

Just as long as they are Christian?

Freedom always good when well dosed

On face value, this 'sort of' sounds reasonable. Or am I being hopelessly optimistic and naive? Silly me, I know the answer already.

I'm guessing Saudi Arabia is exempt?

Wtf

This'll end well.

Good

That's Israel out then ? Saudi Arabia ? India ?

Like 'god bless america '

Leave religion out of it, religion causes enough trouble as it is

freedom to be a 'christian' like him? no thanks

Christian religious freedom

He has no right, this king of the earth who does everything for 40% of the American people. QUIT. Save us the time and expense, although it will be worth it to educate your base. No worries, you’ll get votes; the haters will cling to white supremacy, their version of hope...

MsMariaT Like the Muslim travel ban?

Hey..but we'll guard that oil in S.A. and spill it on Native American grounds. Freedom to trash Natives is real Freedom.

'religious freedom' always seems to entail infringing on other people's freedom. religious people don't want to consume alcohol on Sundays translates into no one can. why do religious people always want laws to prevent them from doing what they claim they don't want to do anyway?

That should go well with his fabulous China trade deal that he hasn’t shown us yet.

Excellent move by Trump. We should not support countries that do not have religious freedom.

Translation, be Christian or else.

“If you fear making anyone mad, then you ultimately probe for the lowest common denominator of human achievement.” ― Jimmy Carter

Plans to make “some” foreign aid conditional on religious freedom. Some of our partners will not be subjected to such conditions depending on many factors but most of by presidential whim.

Doesn't matter. He'll be in prison or exiled soon.

and he is stopping people with religion.. what a joke?
