Trump imposes tariffs, sanctions on Colombia after it refuses deportation flights

Nobody's ever gonna trust the US ever again after Trump. Guy just thinks he can bully entire countries to his will.

It's a showing of everything that's wrong with american exceptionalism...

I hope the rest of the world keeps standing up.

Mass deportations are the prelude to death camps.

Tariffs hurt America. The messaging is that simple.

Watch as we fuck up the messaging.

Coffee prices already suck, now they're gonna suck even more.

Oh no! Don Jr. will pay his snow 25% more!

I wish the lunatics voters that support this would realize how expensive each of these flights are, at tax payers expense! Easily $30k per flight and Trump is aiming for thousands of these flights!

It seems the specific problem was that military planes were being used instead of civilian planes:

That is why I returned the U.S. military planes that were carrying Colombian migrants... In civilian planes, without being treated like criminals, we will receive our fellow citizens.

That does make sense to me, since I'd feel less comfortable if a military plane was flying into my country, whereas I'd be more comfortable if a regular civilian flight was used instead. From the perspective of a Colombian, I would be concerned about how national security would be affected by giving permission for military planes to operate when they wouldn't otherwise have permission.

Columbia imposed 50% tarrifs on all US goods.

Colombia's president already agreed to take all deportation flights, so tariffs are canceled.

I heard China hit the us with 75% tariff.

Is China going to step in and start trading with Latin America?

FUCK now cocaine is going to be more expensive!
