Well, being the only thing Columbia imports to the US is Colombians, I can totally live with that.

Best X comment:

“They (Columbia) won’t like where this goes.”

Trump is about to give hard lesson in international economics.....sit back and watch what happens.....after this nobody will refuse taking their illegals back.

Columbia is about to be made example of.

Tariffs are something which make sense to me.
I do expect this sort of “trade war” or “tariff war”.
I am not afraid. Other nations will suffer more. They will be on the losing end.
As Reagan said: “We win; they lose.”

Considering the freakout that is going on in the international enemedia, Deep States all over the globe are getting the message.

This is a ‘test case’ and rest of world will be watching this game played.

So the stakes are bigger than this one country.

When do we invade?

Stupid is as stupid does. This won’t end well for Columbia.



Tariffs on imports are the things we sell to them. So, not coffee and bananas.
