Imperialism: Ro Khanna Uncovers Link Between Trump's Worst Policies!

When Donald Trump had the U.S. exist the International Criminal Court it was primarily because of his xenophobic policies. The same can be said about the ongoing manufactured border crisis where refugees, many fleeing conditions caused by U.S. Imperialism, are being kept in cages.

Now Trump's latest move is to cut off aid that was supposed to help many Central and South American countries fix their refugee problem. Thom Hartmann points out that this can make the situation much worse. Once the funds run out, these countries will have a lessened ability to help would be refugees.

Is Trump undermining international institutions like the International Criminal Court, and creating these xenophobic policies to make sure there are always refugees at the border?
