Former President Donald Trump said that all foreign aid should be issued as loans from this point forward, rather than giveaways, as the United States is more than $34 trillion in debt.
In a post Saturday on Truth Social, which was originally in all capital letters, Trump wrote: "From this point forward, are you listening U.S. Senate(?), no money in the form of foreign aid should be given to any country unless it is done as a loan, not just a giveaway. It can be loaned on extraordinarily good terms, like no interest and an unlimited life, but a loan nevertheless."
Trump singled out the U.S. Senate as it is considering a foreign aid package that would allocate more than $95 billion to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, as well as humanitarian assistance to Gaza.
