I think you are seriously not understanding that this is exactly the reaction Trump wants and it is unfortunate that now ten years removed from 2016 Democrats think a winning strategy is to "fight everything."

Time and time again that strategy has failed. Trump does and says outrageous things every day to distract. This was a distraction movie just as the Gaza thing is.

And I've got news for you, he's going to do what he wants and nearly all of this is going to the Courts anyway.

Pick and choose your battles. The average American does not care about USAID, sadly.

Doing things that harm large amounts of people is never a distraction - stopping that is the entire point, and we can’t just roll over and let him do it because it’s not an easy marketing win. We have the capacity to do it all. I agree that our primary message shouldn’t be the sanctity of USAID, but that’s not the message. The message is Elon Musk is coming in and destroying our government, and this is just one example of that.

They’re people who aren’t in the US. Most voters don’t care and it’s a trap like the OP said.
