Do you think Trump will allow this corrupt contracting to continue?

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) spent $5.2
million on an industrial park in Kabul province that ended up lacking
water and sewer systems, auditors found.
The Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction report found that USAID accepted the Bagrami Industrial Park "as is" despite contractors not meeting the basic requirements.
The project goes back to 2004, when USAID awarded a $10 million contract to U.S. company Technologists, Inc. to develop three industrial parks in three Afghan provinces. The contract ballooned to $21.1 million after 11 modifications -- the third modification gave the company the responsibility to develop the infrastructure at the park sites, including water, sewer, electricity, phone lines, paved roads and flood channels.
