U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday, without citing evidence, that "certain classes of people" in South Africa were being treated "very badly" and that he would cut off funding for the country until the matter is investigated. "South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY," Trump said in a Truth Social post." The team reflected on the recently passed land expropriation bill, which is the source of Trump's utterings, questioning whether our sovereignty is being tested by the U.S. They also asked, "should we take a stand or should we comply with the U.S?"
