Democratic strategist David Axelrod has urged party officials to rethink their strategy regarding Elon Musk's efforts to dismantle the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Musk, appointed by Trump to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, has allegedly taken illegal actions against USAID, such as freezing funding and shutting down its website. Axelrod warns that protests against Musk's maneuvers might play into Trump's plans, as they could provoke public sentiment against foreign aid while drawing the party into an unproductive fight.
