If you're aware that "USAID is used by the CIA", and that "the whole point of these programs is to spread US influence", and yet you simply don't care about that, I'm not sure that Evo is the "bluntly, drooling moron" here.

This is not the first time USAID is expelled from a country, this is not the first time that US "aid" is rejected by countries. There is a reason for that, and it has nothing to do with Evo's idiosyncrasies, whatever they are.

If USAID was in fact an "aid" agency and not a puppet from CIA, its reputation probably wouldn't be in shambles almost everywhere in the planet.
