When did the readership of cnn get so frikking stupid. The US is the biggest consumer country in the world. Tariffs will only hurt Americans, all of your costs will go up. You pay tariffs, we don’t. For Columbia, your coffee, tropical fruit like bananas, flowers are going up. For Canada, your gas prices, housing costs. Mexico, fruits and vegetables….basically your inflation is going to sky rocket.

Uhm…tariffs do not raise money for the damn country!! It’s going to make the damn people that live her, BROKE!!

U gotta love the fake news still putting Biden as the number one hero and everything meanwhile that’s a bunch of bull crap gotta love it. How about for the next four years go fly a kite somewhere and let the country be and get back to what it’s been doing for the last hundreds of years before our fathers have fought for.

?sounds good. If americans try to go to any other country illegally, what happens to them??? go home if you are not legal.

America is trying to plant spies into other countries by declaring anyone illegal ? what's going on in world . Why America thinking that world is fool

If the U.S is going to offer Asylum to some people, require them to do the application process from their own country or else they can't be processed. That will stop them from coming to the Mexican border.

Well, no one said it this was going to be easy. So, explain to me why Columbia doesn’t want their own citizens back in their own country???

That migrant can't even talk in English and wanna reach usa. And people are worried for those people? Bro stay and earn in your own country. People are just crazy. Living motherland and going into western mess and that illegally ?

This idiot is going to ruin our country

Lmao Columbia got scared and caved in immediately hahaha let’s go\nTrump. No country is going to test trumps Gangster. He’s valid

Well countries going to hit agent orange right back each flight costing over 500k of tax payer money. 20 dollar eggs on its way, Mexico Canada making trade deals with China Americans will get screwed hard,thanks magats

I love how the Columbian president just folded so quickly. The reality is, read the whole post. You'll see how strong it is. Basically, nobody is going to refuse to take their damn criminals back. Because if they do, Trump will make their economy collapse. It's about time someone sorted this country out.

so we're all mostly in agreement here... WHAT A FUXING MORON!!!! does he really think that threatening tariffs is going to make the government accept immigrants??? I mean this is NEXT LEVEL STUPIDITY... as they would say in Latin countries.... QUE TONTISIMO!!

This is so stupid, if trump’s solution to international affairs is to imposed tariffs on the countries who don’t bend to his will, most countries will be smart and form an alliance to just cut the u.s. out and spread the wealth within that alliance. Trump is going to lose all of our trade partners, and bring us to the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.

OF course CNN are stupid the Columbian government is going to cave they will take back there criminals. All these countries need the US more then the US need them . Thats how u punish ppl go after there money

This is going to be fun: ~25% of crops may be lost due to migrants staying home instead of risking getting caught in the fields, another chunk of crops in California may be lost to contamination by the giant battery fire from two weeks ago, and Felon Trump is slapping tariffs on a bunch of countries the USA will need to offset that food production deficit.

So if it carries on like this, Donald Chaos is going to be applying trade tariffs against many of his neighbors for not taking back their migrants that the US needs to keep their domestic economy afloat? So it'll be costing the US at least an equivalent cost increase to continue buying goods from Columbia (and other countries as yet unknown to add to the list) until the US has no sources left to switch to that are un-tariffed and more economic.\nThese countries will just sell their goods elsewhere if the US doesn't buy them, so the American consumer loses out and pays to finance this fiasco in the making = US price inflation. \nSo falling out with your neighbors is how to make America great again is it?\nWhat sort of successful businessman works like this and succeeds? Donald Chaos, the Art of The Fail.

for all of you in the comments trying to bash Trump talking about how this was a bad move and going to drive up prices, make enemies, etc. how do you feel now that the Colombian president has folded and is sending his presidential plane to pick them up? The threat of tariffs worked didn't it? Maybe it's time you admit to yourself you've been lied to and Trump knows what he's doing and has our country's best interest at heart.

Lol What did he think these countries are just going to take these people back. Columbia does not want them back there. They are US Citizens as far as that goes

No country should allow the US deportation planes to land. It would really screw his plan. Soon he'll have tariffs on every country. Imagine how much things are going to cost.

So everyone better go buy there coffee NOW!! Listen everyone if you voted for this idiot you will REGRET IT!! Trump will ruin our country like ALL HIS BUSINESSES!!

What's the orange idiot going to do when these countries band together and ban American imports. America would come to a screeching halt, crash and then catch fire while he goes golfing claiming fake news and it's all a hoax.

So who is paying for the tariffs.\nWe the people who voted them and are the ones who are going to pay for the tariffs. This is a bad idea. The country is gonna go downhill immediately.

This is so incredibly awesome for our country. immigrants going back home.there afraid to break the law for fear of getting caught.trade deals happening over seas companies guaranteeing 500billion in investments.

Trump is just shoving MORE countries to belong to BRICS. Just like Cuba who can now tell the USA to kiss their ass with all those sanctions. In the end Trump and the USA will LOSE A TRADE WAR. Canada is ready to discontinue ALL oil sent to the USA making gas prices go HIGHER here. US consumers pay the tariffs.

Is there any country that he'll avoid going to war with?

Big surprise Trump. No country is going to cave in to your threats. More prices going up in the USA.

Criminal. You see, they have no understanding. They wants to break the law to get into the country anyway, when the country had told them, you got to go back Just too many. of you all trying to get in at once illegally. They just people that don't understand.

Where is don jr going to get his coke from now that his immature daddy is fighting with these countries??

What a mess this country is going directly into an economic recession.

Brilliant plan! Does anyone realize that all these tariffs will not affect the countries that he’s placing the tariffs on. US businesses pay for these tariffs then they pass on the cost of the tariffs to us the US citizens. Can’t wait to see how this is gonna go over.

One way or the other, we’re all going to pay for electing MAGA. How many people will starve when other countries join Columbia? In the mean time, we’re paying to house these “undocumented” migrants.

So when's dump going to build camps? It seems unimaginable, but that's the first thing that popped into my mind. What a sad state our country is in. We still have 4 years of this.

Go back and make a change in your own country!!!!

They need to stop ✋ it… they know it’s wrong to continue to do this…. Go back to your country and fix it… It’s not free to come to other countries…. This is so disrespectful

This is unequivocally the most disturbing video I've seen. This is inexcusable!!!!\n\nThis is NOT who we are! This is inhumane - look at that razorwire right there in front of children!\nThese people have it so hard. Does anyone realize how hard it is to go to another country every day to work and then go home? Are we going to starve? \n\nNO ONE deserves to be treated like this. \n\nThis CANNOT CONTINUE!

Great energy to survive…. Go back to your country and storm your Bad government out of office.

go back and make your country better

Running away won't make problems go away. Fight for your own country.

GO BACK AND FIGHT FOR YOUR COUNTRY. ?, HUSSAIN, ASSAD, DRIVEN OUT OF THAT COUNTRY BY THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE

This is not your country, go home.

Such a shame not being wanted is devastating we don't know what they go through in their country. But I agree they need to learn to stand up for their country and help each other create work for each other and provide for each other by sharing their food their vege gardens crops. Come on people learn to support yourselves in your own country.❤❤❤

who will go to the cold country

Turn back and go fight for your home countries

Indian just to go your country \nHave some pride on yourself \nThey don’t want you there at all\n\nWhat do you not understand?\nGo back to india you dirty people

They could go to china thailand denmark lot of other countrys free tax paymoney

My heart does go out to those who do truly seek a safer and better life for themselves and their families. But they have to turn to God instead of alternative religions to heal their land. This is our country, we have fought and given our lives for it. Its time to put Americans first. I pray they stand before their own government for reform. Turn to God for it and for protection. Its the only way. Come back legally. Wait your turn. ????✝️????

There are too many struggling Americans. We can't help the extreme numbers of illegal immigrants. I don't understand using so much time and resources to go to a country that doesn't want you. That can't help you.

Go back and use that energy to fix your own country instead of thinking you have the right to come here and take for free what Americans have worked paid taxes and died for you are not American unless you come here legally not hard to understand now is it

This is crazy!!! Have these people lost their mind!!! They are only making things worse for themselves. Do it the right way!!! You can’t break into someone’s home and think it’s going to go well with the owner. Same for each country!!
