Surprisingly, George W. “Dubya” Bush gave a huge amount of funding and a sincere plea for countries to follow suit, on the basis that he was elected as a pro-life candidate and there’s nothing more pro-life than fighting malaria in Africa. Talk about doing the right thing for the wrong reason, eh?
Naturally, Trump cut the funding in half, then fired the agency responsible for the program. So, even though there’s technically still some funding, there’s no one to make use of it, leaving the program in limbo.
