I agree. I don’t think any amount of political donations or support would’ve made “We should give lots of taxpayer money to Africa” politically palatable in 2024. Enough voters were in an isolationist mood.
This would absolutely be a bad message to use, voters don’t care about aid at all. You’d just use the best message-tested stuff available which generically moves the needle in the direction you want it to go
