This is all the fault of Biden and Kamala. If they did not encourage and welcome criminal migrants into the country, none of these would have to happen.

Well looks like the usa better start building mega prisons to hold all those immigrants thats being deported. It would be more money for the usa if we just set them free and put those immigrants to work and start building production lines and sell those products to other countries to build our economy back

Any country that refuse to take in their illegals, would get their as*es whooped. This ain't sleepy Biden.

Why would a country deny entry of their own citizens?

He's setting colombia as an example for other countries on what would happen if you go against him

Why would a country decline to take back its citizens?

But one thing I don’t understand , sorry my economics wasn’t good at school , if a country increases tariffs on imports coming to its own people, would it decrease consumer prices to its own people ? Please lecture me here .

So let me make sure I understand! We, the US people, will be paying 25% more for all products coming in from Columbia. No one in Columbia will pay extra. This would essentially slow down products coming in from Columbia or any other country. The US people pay for this. It could or will change the behavior of these countries, but WE pay for this!!!

Trump and the MAGA morons should look up the meaning of trade in a dictionary. There is a give and take, there’s buying and selling, that meets the needs of both parties. Trade tariffs is not how anyone with common sense wants to deal with any and every minute dispute like a senseless toddler. Both sides get hurt. Even the tariffs on Russia hurt other countries that imposed them too and that was a calculated move because the war calls for extreme measures.\nWhat the Trump sycophants that probably can’t read need to know is that Colombia accepted hundreds of these flights in the last few years. The only reason they pushed back now is on human indignity. This is the first they received a flight with their civilians cuffed up like animals. The Colombian president said that is not how you treat humans, at least not my people, send them back in a civilised way where they are not dehumanised and we’ll take them. He even sent his own planes later and took them back.\nA sane leader would order his team to review the process and advise them of appropriate measures going forward. An insane, thin skinned snowflake throws tantrums in their diapers and these Trump tariffs are precisely that. Sure, this will reduce the cost of living for the idiots that voted for him ??‍♂️

This man doesn't realize he is going to isolate and bankrupt America with all the s*it he is doing. Unless he wants to go nuclear in which case Earth would be uninhabitable for EV and everyone including the 1%, other countries WILL turn on America and the economic cost will be catastrophic.....then again, he's a genius at the art of bankruptcy....

If they are criminals and not colombian why would colombia let them land there? Send them to their respective country

No other country in the world would put up with this. The US shouldn't be expected to either.

I don't know why MAGA are now surprised Colombia hit back with 25% retaliatory tariffs on US goods. Did they think other countries would just roll over or something? They will just hit back on US goods. This will not end well.

That’s all they can do threatening language about Visa. Good for you all, fix your damn Country instead depending on America for everything. I would banned America outright! Simple as that. Is America God or what? I’ll go with the Danish lawmaker every day!

I would ordinarily be defending the USA. But this is Trump. And it’s being pushed without setting it up. They want to know what is going on. Naturally ! But Trump doesn’t think anyone or any Government can oppose him. The South American countries are dog walking our corrupt Leader. He’s a disgrace to America

This started Friday in Brazil ?? when the interior minister with police and media boarded a US plane refueling in a Brazilian city carrying returning Brazilian migrants. The police acted surprised when they discovered the migrants were all handcuffed and leg ironed. They were removed, fed, showered and returned home by Brazil.\nThis was big news throughout the Latin countries.\nThe Colombian President would not accept his civilians being treating as criminals. Colombia ?? sent a plane to pick up their citizens without the mechanical restraints.\nColombia has now imposed a 50% tariff on all American products and seeking other countries to partner with, in effect shutting out the US. This is gonna be so good for china’s ?? economy

I got a message for President Gustavo Pedro: Your Country is beautiful so your people, your Country is a paradise, I would listen to MR President Trump and get along with him. If you send your Presidential Plane for accommodating your people you're welcome, but you're not in the position to jeopardize your fragile economy for any reason whatsoever, peace, diplomatic relationship and trade and what you need the most as the entire world including us in America. MR President Trump is protecting the sovereignty of America and the people within.

If I was Columbia I would just raise the price of my coffee accordingly ?, all those countries should do the same send those planes back out like scud missiles and if the orange one tries to tariff them just raise prices what are we gonna do grown our own? How if we have no workers since we are trying to deport everyone in site? Lol

Any other country would be sendin slugs

These leaders really need to call an Emergency Meeting and figure out a way how they’re going to pay for the International airfare for these natural born citizens returning to their home country. Not doing so would put their own people at risk and create a humanitarian crisis.

Colombia did not reject its citizens, it rejected military aircraft landing without permission. Only an idiot would warn that he was going to invade Greenland and Panama and then expect countries to allow US military aircraft to land.

While I am all for deportation, why would you send a flight out without getting the destination country's approval for landing? How is that a thing, actually? It's like booking a reservation for say Australia without having an idea if there is a flight available :D

Colombia did not accept because they were on military planes. If they would have been treated with respect and like human beings and arrive on commercial jets, they would have accepted. The same with Mexico. We would not like military jets or planes from other countries coming to our country. They are lucky they were not shot down. For all you MAGA people, there are thousands of jobs for you in the farming industry. We need our tomatoes, and oranges picked. Get to work MAGA and pick those crops.

inbound tariffs dont hurt the countries material is coming from but it hurts the receiving country,s like us. basically he just added another commodity and goods tax to american business. Columbia is probably laughing at this. what material that is directly shipped from them is probably illegally smuggle past customs anyway tariffs would have no effect

I think if the teriffs were going to be handed down to consumer like they say it will, I don’t think other countries would do anything in their power to avoid them

All these useless leaders of these countries should fix their countries so their citizens would stay home.

TAKE YOUR PRISONERS BACK COLUMBIA. These Countries knew what Trump's plan, said they would take them back, then won't let the planes land. So yeah, tariff the sh*it out of them. I'll pay a little more (like I have been for four years) to get our Country back. Americans first!!!

Colombia wouldn't pay diddly it would be Americans, period. Tariffs, historically, don't work because the citizens pay them on any goods that come from that country. Colombian coffee is really good btw. We got people with no health coverage, homelessness rising, housing unaffordable to most, on and on, what is this administration doing for that?! Nadda, and won't, cause they don't care, want to know what Trump cares about, look at who had the best seats in the house at his inauguration, front row. It isn't coincidence.

Bottom line is that American consumers will pay for this action. The smart thing would be to establish a protocol for these flights returning. The country receives notification with names, stats and photos. \nIts represent a diplomatic solution so both the United States and Columbia can process. Now the returned planes with those illegals land back here a nd we will house and feed them for months at tax payer expense!!!!! Plus now a conference of all Latin American will probably refuse any flights to a diplomatic solution occurs!!!! If extremes continue we could endanger our businessman conducting business in these countries!!! Stupid as stupid does!!!!! Plus in most cases the product with tariff is being produced with an American partner!!!! The banana production companies are american owned or have a large vested investment!!!! So there profits will fall and they are traded on the NYSE affecting investors here state side!!!! Rise the prices here on our imported fruit and coffee. !!!! Stupid. Stupidity

The President of the United States has great influence over the United States. If such a president were given legitimate influence, power, and authority over all other countries, that person would be called the President of the World or like maybe, Jesus Christ. Thus, it is a great thing to focus mainly on what we can directly affect and have authority over, as all else might just be a indication of ego and blustering wind. It's better for everyone to see you as having the wisdom of Solomon and making great journeys to hear your ideas, than it is for you to foist your ideas as though you could display your Solomon like wisdom and make yourself seem a source of wisdom.

I just can't understand why people would risk life and limb to break into a country that is so overtly racist - or so the Left and their acolytes in the media would have us believe. ?

Dear GOD, through the power of your only begotten SON JESUS and the Virgin Mary, please lift the DELUSION from these people of good will (2 Thessalonians 2-man of lawlessness) and let them wake up to the fact that Trump is not the man they think he is! He is against all that is TRUE and HOLY and will lead this great country to destruction. He is a son of Satan (father of all lies). He claims he is the CHOSEN ONE, but he behaves in the opposite manner of what JESUS would do (anti-Christ). He loves only himself! He claims to love the Holy Bible yet cannot recite one verse of scripture! Jesus warned us of the false prophets, and messiahs that would come after HIM deceiving even the elect of GOD! Trump is one such FALSE MESSIAH. Satan (ruler of THIS world) has given his son immense power to deceive men's minds, and GOD is allowing us to be punished for the sin of ELECTIVE abortion We need to REPENT, PRAY and RENEW our trust in JESUS CHRIST and his Mother Mary and follow them, carrying our cross on the road that will lead us back to the FATHER! AMEN - JOHN 3:16!

Hopefully this sets a standard for South American countries. If we’re gona do that over 2 planes imagine what we would do to Venezuela if they actually try to take PR

Why would a country not want their own citizens back? Pretty telling

How is it possible that they are saying deportation numbers were higher during Biden administration, yet we have been faced with the worst immigration crisis in the history of our country? Also, I would never want to sour any relationship with any country but I solute our President for being a nonsense approach and defend his country from criminals. My God, can you imagine what scum we had amongst us, if even their country doesn’t want them. I can live without Colombian food. They can stuff it up where the sun doesn’t shine. I’m only heartbroken for the people who have families there who will now suffer because they’re communicating and visiting will be greatly affected. And this is why Trump calls these assholes terrorists. Because of these assholes families are held hostage by not being allowed to have physical contact with each other.

Until CNN stands up to Trump and its MAGA sickos you are going to keep losing viewers and you should. You went after Biden non stop to old. Never questioned Trumps mental decline and his calls to take down the country. I hope the pay back is worth the ratings. You bent the knee on the lawsuit that you would have won to kiss the ring. Hate to see people lose jobs, but hope you go belly up. FAFO

Guess old trumpy took it for granted that these other countries would cooperate. ??

What a shock. Trump tries to bully other countries into getting his own way. Maybe Colombia gave in but it won't work with other countries. It would have been good for a few people to see how tariffs actually work. Most Americans don't seem to understand how inflation works though, so it is no great surprise.

If another country did this to the US, a nuclear strike would be on the table. What the actual fuck? This is insane and I can see why countries are dumping dollars at warp speed.\n\nGlad my investments are in Canada and Europe!

All about using money as a way of negotiating.\nMakes him feel powerful. Countries will get disgusted with Trump's threats and they will do business elsewhere\nBet Russia would appreciate more business

What if every country the US exports to which is about 3Trillion dollars income in total get 100% tariffs back at the US that would destroy them lol

But why would a country refuse its citizen?

So these countries don’t want their own citizens back? If that’s the case why would we want them? Looks like Trump was right, they aren’t sending their best

At one time no South American country would have dared defy a US president and risk invasion and regime change, now they all openly defy Trump with abandon since the rise of BRICS. Colombia has applied to join BRICS and these retaliatory tariffs will simply speed that up. Colombia stated quite clearly - we will not accept undocumented migrants who have done nothing wrong but work, pay their tax and behave as excellent members of US society - basically Trump try somewhere else to dump your unwanted workers. Americans' favourite Colombian coffees have just become 25% more expensive, millions of cups of Colombian coffee is drunk the US every week. \n\nTrump’s ridiculous comment about Jordan, Egypt and other Gulf countries taking Palestinians whilst Gaza is rebuilt is equally stupid; those countries cannot accept forcibly expelled, ethnically cleansed Gazans because that would be a War Crime and render those countries liable to be accused of complicity in a War Crime by the International Court of Justice; they would also incur the wrath of their respective populations and put their governments at risk of being overthrown. \n\nAll the surrounding countries and the International Community needs to do is to flood Gaza with thousands of tons of humanitarian aid and millions of large family-sized tents, as well as mobile toilets and washing facilities. Supply bulldozers and rubble removing machinery to clean the land up as quickly as possible, as well as bomb detection kits to protect the children. The Gazan people are incredibly resilient and will happily live in tents whilst their country is being rebuilt around them, and the State of Palestine begins to emerge again. \n??

AFTER TRUMP TOLD COLUMBIA THE CONSEQUENCES FOR DENIAL OF THE CRIMINALS TO BE RETURNED THE DICTATOR LEADER. SAID HE WOULD FLY THESE PEOPLE BACK TO HIS COUNTRY AND THEY WOULD DEAL WITH THEM. FAFO IS WHAT ALL THESE COUNTRIES ARE NOW AWARE OF. THE LION IS IN CHARGE NOW.

Do they know what “ migrants” was used for? Migrant workers who would go back and forth during agriculture seasons. \nThese people are not “migrants”, their illegal aliens who did not come into the US lawfully. Praise this President who is not going to put up with countries sending their citizens into this country snd crossing the border illegally

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!!

Ohh No ... Guess we would just have to stop doing trade with them all together..... You telling me another country wouldn't do whatever had to be done to take the place on imports / exports ?? Folgers Coffee goes up in price ... Maxwell House drops their price in hopes to garner all of Folgers business.... That's how business works .....

If you ran away from your country do you think they would want you back? Specially when you were leaving for work etc...abandaned them.

If these countries really cared for there people they would accept them back but they don’t so that tells me that this is an actual attack politically from other countries
