Trump to South Africa: No More Money for You Unless You Stop Doing 'Terrible Things'

If you think that wasn’t enough to accomplish in the almost two weeks since he was inaugurated, he’s also been making waves on the international scene—big waves. He got Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro to take back his citizens who are here in the U.S. illegally, he just got the Panamanian president to agree to reduce Chinese influence over the Canal, and he imposed large tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Whew.

But he wasn’t done, and on Sunday, he announced that he would be pulling any funding for South Africa because he believes the government is unlawfully confiscating land from its own citizens. He took to Truth Social to announce his intentions:

The president also addressed the situation from the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews as he returned to the White House from Palm Beach, Florida, saying the Rainbow Nation’s leadership is doing “terrible things”:

Terrible things are happening in South Africa. The leadership is doing some terrible things, horrible things, so that’s under investigation right now. We’ll make a determination, and until such time as we find out what’s South Africa’s doing… They’re taking away land, they’re confiscating land, and actually, they’re doing things that are perhaps far worse than that.
