Pay for performance. It’s how yours, mine and most non-public sector jobs are compensated. So shall it be with these international organizations. Bravo, Mr. President!
Personally, I think we should divest from the WHO and form a new global health organization with our Asian allies. Then as it gets off the ground, have it take over the CDC, since they've been doing a fairly crappy job too.
I sure as hell hope so. Any group that advocates for ripping people out of their homes against their will has no business getting one cent of our taxpayer dollars.
World Health Organization spent more on plane tickets and hotels than AIDS and malaria
The World Health Organization reportedly spent more money last year on traveling around the globe, than they did on actually combating the world’s illnesses.
The health agency spent approximately $200 million on plane tickets, hotel accommodation and other travel expenses—more than its combined spending to tackle AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis and hepatitis, according to an investigation by the Associated Press on May 21.
The organization may be a global entity, but it is funded by taxpayers via states’ contributions to the United Nations. The allegations around WHO’s travel spending are hard to reconcile when considering its increasingly desperate pleas for donor funding.

while he should, and probably wants to, "plans to" is overreaching what he actually said.
“I’m not saying I’m going to do it. But we’re going to look at it,” the president said.
That's his real position. he wants to. "plans to" ... not there yet.
Trump isn't the only one slamming WHO. A based official in Japan called them "the Chinese Health Organization."
Said he’d look into it. Nothing has been cut

They've been spending our money like drunken sailors on shore leave.
Sorry this is from 2017. I know I've seen something more recent, but this is a start.
