The Americans will soon be poorer and more isolated than ever. Trump wants to make America great again? He is going to piss everybody, even the few nations that had kept good relations with US.

Good for Americans , next time elect a president with more brain cells

Im a Canadian and only % of drugs or people go across our boarders so what Trump is saying is again not true. Americans kill Americans .... Canadians do not kill Americans. WE will not bow down to a bully. Trump cant manage his own drug problems so he has to blame others. Canadian will work hard and not buy American goods. We will do our part and stand with our governments decision on our Tariffs. Trump is a sick man and is acting like a spoiled child. He cant manage his own country so he attacks ours...Canada will be here standing strong long after Trump is gone.

Justin Trudeau's border plan of 1.3 billion over six to ten years is a joke! Tariffs on America after several US administrations tried to work with Canadian governments to stop provocations in trade, border security, immigration, and many other issues, only to fall on deaf ears or passive responses, not to mention Trudeau's derogatory comments about Trump being a racist. At the same time, Trudeau was caught having a history of wearing racist blackface. Not wise! \n\nFor some odd reason, Trudeau thought it was also wise to mock the American President, Donald Trump, with other European leaders while attending a meeting in the UK at Buckingham Palace, which clearly invited bad blood between the two. Not to mention his missteps while traveling in Europe and meeting with Kamala. He also increasingly chose to snuggle up to China. However, America has provided Canada with favorable trading relations and high-cost subsidies in the form of military and territorial security for decades. That clearly was a slap in the face and wasn't very smart! You had to figure some American president would ultimately say enough!\n\nAmerica has supported, defended, and offset the national defense costs of European nations for over seventy years, while EU countries and their leaders have routinely mocked and ridiculed Americans. Is it really classy to slap the face of someone who protects and supports you and your quality of life? No, it's not! Tariffs on EU products are likely coming soon, and reduced defensive support for Europe means they will have to pay more taxes for their defense and goods.

3k a month for a apartment? What the hell, I’m in the United States we all know Cali is expensive but it ain’t 3k a month for a one bedroom, I’d be. Good there but only because I own an American trucking business that’s nuts

As a European living in Canada I noticed right after we got here that quality and even availability of good European product is lacking. All the American backwards product never impressed me. The only thing is that Canadians are so slow with everything. Also nice Toyota trucks, right from Asia, I never understood that just because they aren't available in the US, why don't we have them here?

why doesnt Canada just sanction America? ban all American goods in response? forcing trump to waive the tarifs?

About 52% of Americans including myself would support Canada and Mexico putting 25% tariffs on US goods. I wish Canada would also put a 50% export tariff on oil too.

Buy American and boycott Mexican and Canadian maple goods.

Trump is complaining that Americans don't have money for groceries, but at the same time he is raising tarifs on imported goods which will lead to higher inflation.

Canada putting tariffs on American goods hurts Canadians much more than Americans.

Canadian are not afraid of hardship. How do Americans think Canadians were able to settle and farm the prairies with winters below -30 F. We can get by with very little if we have too, while we wait to establish new markets for our goods and services.

Why does the Canadian Prime Minister care so much about what would happen to US citizens? If it is so bad for Americans, then it is good for Canada right? So Canada should be cheering for tariffs.

Trump's rationale of the border security issue to Canada is totally false as less than 1 percent of drugs and illegals come through Canada. Trump is just being a bully to try to get his way on tariffs for what he thinks is an economic decision to improve the USA. Unfortunately he is again wrong as Americans and Canadians will pay a lot more for goods and Trump will cause more inflation, ruin companies and many job losses across both nations.

North America is exploding economically because of Trump. It is mostly the Americans who would suffer the most because Canada and Mexico has more safety nets for its citizens than US. Trump voters, if this is what you voted, good luck for more four years of chaos.

I am an American, not an immigrant. My Family is Cherokee Indian. I am good with people in Our Country as long as they are legal.

Good get them out of here more jobs for Americans

When since you Americans are barely surviving?..the way you are boasting about America we thought you all are rich...this is why those people wants to come there and experience some of the 'good' life you all claim to be having. America is not a nice place to live because the people there have no class morals, behavior and are crude and crass to other humans. I am Jamaican and would never live in THAT RAT HOLE called America ????

I hope Mexico shuts its borders to American truckers and goods also don’t give in to the orange bully who is mentally unstable standing together with china and Canada you don’t give in. Yes your countries will suffer but America will suffer the most because they will have to pay big time. And they are not use to being stood up to

President Donald Trump has stated that he will improve the United States economy with massive deportation of undocumented migrants\n, layoffs of government workers , deep cuts in social security benefits for disabled citizens or the elderly , and reduction of medicaid . \n However , a significant number of Americans are unaware that Trump is also planning to reduce the taxes for the rich , and give billions of more money to Israel or engage in unwinnable wars in West Asia . It should also be noted that Trump's theories to make America great again will have a disastrous effect on the economy or on life in the United States, especially because he is also about to start a trade war by significantly increasing tarrifs or duties on imported goods and products from China, Canada and Mexico \nAs a result, the Trump plan for the next four years may simply make America poor again.

This is what Americans(people) want, it is good for country.

The American government has facilitate broken overseas governments over the years and then complains. Trump most likely is making money off the shit is his causing to. Drain the swamp, but you can't sack everybody then install staff with shit for brains, who have no clue where to start Work through the situation and fix it. Good Luck America, 2 weeks in.

GOOD , as a black American with roots run back to the killing fields of southern states during slavery, these South American countries and African countries come here and look down on black Americans and bring down the pay rate because of your illegal status which taken advantage of by companies and our communities are culturally destroyed. GO TRUMP

if you break the law, you will be deported 77 million americans voted for this. good riddance. so what if ILLEGAL ALIENS are children or women. they broke the law go get out. 77 million americans dont care about ILLEGALS

Why wasn’t trump ready for this because he trying to put out good American who work hard now fox this you talk about Biden make it make sense

Trump is tough president he means what he says that's very good for American people.

My goodness....\nThats alot of F-u-c-king illegally immigrants in America. How the heck did they enter into America in the first place. \nIm an American citizen and i cant even cross the borders of canada and united states in peace lol ?

Looking good for American jobs.

Just another #nazirepublican being a NAZI. If that trans navy commander is removed from service due to being trans, than EVERY SINGLE PATIENT that her navy doctor, whom released her indicating that she's FIT TO SERVE, SHOULD BE QUESTIONED ON ALL OF HIS OR HER DIAGNOSIS ON EVERY PATIENT THEY APPROVED FOR SERVICE! Along with other military doctors in all branches of the military that's cleared a transwoman or transman to serve! This is disgusting, and PURE HATE SPEECH. If transmen and transwomen are putting up their lives for this country and knowing their unit can depend and risk their lives with their transmen and transwomen, their fellow brothers and sisters in the field, this shouldn't be an issue. The one eye'd congressman just sounded SALTY and retaliatory because he couldn't serve because of his disability. This just reminded me of our fellow African Americans, Native Americans, and every other minority that's had to go through these kinds of ordeal, let it either be in the military, sports, and many other areas, because THEY WERE DIFFERENT in the past and currently. END this hate narrative, and end #nazirepublicans HATE. There are good and common sense republicans out there, just not these types.

If these immigrants do not recognize and respect our border laws, what makes you think they will honor or follow any other law in America. Wake-up! My Lord, have the American people in sanctuary cities lost their minds. What will it take for you to acknowledge this is a dangerous invasion! Nothing good can come from breaking US laws from the get go.

Good. Now Americans can pay $50 for a tiny bag of coffee. Good going, jerk! Trump's an idjit. Blame him when a personal Coca-Cola costs $10 a bottle.

1- , 2 Colombian planes just arrived in the USA to take its deported citizens\n\n2- Venezuela doesn't allow deported Venezuelans from ANY country, NOT ONLY USA, a couple of S. American countries already tried\n\n3- If imported goods from Colombia become too expensive, then, that will benefit other countries like Ecuador and Peru that have the same type of goods that are imported from Colombia.. like coffee, flowers, tropical fruits, etc.\nAnd for those, like AOC, who think that they can't live without their Colombia coffee... well, they haven't tried Peruvian coffee, which is now considered among the best in the world \n\n4- The main reason why the Colombian government gave in to Trump's demands was not only bcz the tariffs but the fact that Trump threatened them with deporting and canceling all visas for all Colombian government members and their relatives........

Please american download trump we have president imran khan two years already in jel lokap pakistan army has entered banjara lokap jail again pakistan army summa bankrap likes to shoot people in pakistan again imran khan has many good people pakistan army summa join jubaidan please imran khan can get out of the jail imran khan good man

Not true, in Canada wait times are not longer than in america, but free and with more consideration served. Canadian doctors are so far superior with knowledge!!! Also american death care does not have good quality, I have just written why in another comment. I payed fortune and was misdiagnosed in contradictions. It is the biggest lie to say american death care can be called even bad. It is terrible. Used to brilliant Soviet Russian doctors, I saw the nightmare!

This ain’t good!!\nAs an American citizen that’s pays taxes I hornslty feel so bad for these people \nYet I would say the democrats r pure evil for allowing this happen and instigating this to occur- they wanted more iligals for more votes and u see this occur \nDemocrats should be dragged to the border and forced to watch the fruit of their policies \nYet I’m sure they r in Ghana or so where abroad

Hope ppl know that no matter is happening for us american ppl, prices will only go up! They might drop the cost of gas for a few months to make u feel good and than shoot back up with everything else at a higher rate than today! Its been happening for longer than i been alive

Everybody has some sort Internet connection. They need to look up what Tariffs are. When Trump was campaigning he said he was going to put a 25% tariff in China and all of his supporters cheered and clapped ! I’m sitting here going don’t they know that that increase cost is going to be pushed down to the consumer?!?!! It’s the everyday American who is going to end up paying that 20% 25% increased in cost!!! it’s going to affect our living standards and not in a good way! Not the wealthy people in this country who Trump says he’s going to protect because they’re his friends! I don’t get it! Trump is sitting here, threatening to put tariffs on all the countries that’s not doing what he wants them to do! And people cheer! Unless you’re the wealthy, you’re gonna be screwed with the cost-of-living that’s gonna be reflected in those tariffs!!

None of these migrant evacuating nations would allow millions of Americans to get benefits for anchor babies. Cant stand Rump but Phoenix has become little mexico...and not in a good way

Hmmm and people still don’t see how this is getting to be a serious problem. They’re literally rushing in. Instead of taking the time to fix what they have they’re running in EXPECTING things. They don’t think they have to wait their turn! This is what open borders do. They lead to a serious crisis and entitlement. I don’t think I have the right to do that anywhere else. Not to mention we don’t have enough to take care of what we have right now. LA doesn’t have enough water to sustain what they have but they think it’s a great idea to open California and let as many in. What you’re going to do is crumble this country. One nation can only sustain so much. The president of Columbia didn’t want his own people back. That should tell you something. Yet American media is telling us these people are vital to our economy. If they’re so vital and followed by dollar signs, why doesn’t Columbia want their own people?? Aren’t they needed to build the economy there? Wake up people. This is a serious issue. We can’t save the whole world, we simply don’t have the means. If we stay this route what will happen is we will end up in the same spot that Mexico is. You have to teach them to build properly not bring it all here. That isn’t a fix all. Once we have enough gang members, drug cartels and murders from all the other countries, we’ll become those countries, while they’ll have it good because they purged all their criminals to us. They don’t want them back, yet we’re begging them to bring their problems to us! It’s time to take this serious and worry about our own.

Good thing you have the right to bare arms still..your going to need them Americans??..keep up the fight for your rights America

No more tacos, no more gyros, no more chow mein. \nIt's time for some good old American cooking now.?

CNN doing more sane washing of trumps disputable actions!!!\nCNN why are you not correctly reporting WHY Columbia refused the MILITARY planes!!!\nThis photo opp stunt cost Americans almost $900,000.00!! Also this stunt could be ILLEGAL!!! Oh I forgot laws don’t matter when it comes to the MIST CORRUPT PRESIDENT in US history!!!\nTrump could care less about the cost to you ignorant Americans!!!!\nBut hey keep cheering for this vile conman!!\nAmerica is turned into a cesspool over night with this fasist vile criminal as your president!!!\nWow how dumb are Americans?? Apparently EXTREMELY dumb! You voted for THAT thing not once but twice!!!!\nBrain dead Americans!!!!\nGood job you fricken idiots!!! You got exactly what you voted for! He told you all what he was going to do but I guess you thought being apart if trumps cult would protect you!!! ???? it’s not! Trump could care less about you! He chewed you up and is now spitting you out with a huge smile on his face!!! Good job American imbeciles!!!!

? lmao is there finally someone standing up to trump. Hahahaha. Trump is getting humbled by other countries. Because we America can't ?what a darn moron. Tariffs cost America alot more money on goods when those countries just bring up the price for Americans so they can pay those tarrifs. It's been proven already with Mexico.a civic built in Mexico use to cost Americans 20k now its up to 40k because of dumb ass donald bringing tariffs. Bro no one cares about your threats trump there just empty when those countries tell u go f yourself. What a darn idiot.this is what you voted for ?

I think Indian govt's stance is best in this case.\n'Give us a list of our people you want to deport, give us proofs why you think they are illegals, and we will arrange for the planes ourselves, no questions asked. You won't even have to bother about transporting them, just bring them to the air port, we will fly them back.'.\n\n\nAnyways Indian govt had been warning Canada about this migration for past 8 years. Literally imploring them to not take these guys in. They aren't running away from persecution, they are running away from prosecution. But sadly Canada became a safe haven for criminals in India to run and hide into. Now don't blame India or Indians for it. We warned you, we had a spat with you. You lectured us how free and democratic you are and how your doors are open to all. NOW SUFFER.\n\nFor the Americans.....i don't feel a thing. They are mostly racists bunch (liberals more than conservatives, but yeah 99 percent of them are pure vile racists). I enjoy watching their country undergoing a very slow implosion right Infront of our very eyes. Trump is a good and capable leader. But what can he really do? His main voter base (which actually did not matter in the elections, it was the minority votes which tilted the scales) is simply uneducated, uninformed, racists. I don't know if they are inherently racist or that racism is born out of ignorance to begin with. But it is what it is. And the othtrr side is loony. ?. You have hate filled racists on one side and crazies on another. That country is destined to be doomed. I hardly find any centrist sane individual who can actually get over the superficial racial or identity stuff and actually talk policies in depth. Both sides are like... For us or against us. What can Trump even do with such population base. They have to import people to keep their quality on top... Else they are done for within next 200 - 250 years.

Yeah he’s gonna cost thousands of dollars good on you Americans

Are Americans going to eat dollars? Just by blocking the enterance of many dollars into Colombia, you decreased the value of the dollar and it also became less preferred. You export paper in return for actual goods. By causing people not to prefer to buy dollars or making them unable to buy dollars will hit the dollar itself because a currency usually gains value by being bought and preferred.

PREDICTION: The rise of international tariffs will ultimately uncover a huge underbelly of unemployment ironically in the USA and create a wave of an unexpected underbelly of poverty unseen by America in many years. USA will suffer in the next 4 years due to tariff wars and causing its international allies work in new relationships with its unexpected competitors such as China. The EU will learn how to live without relying on the USA - as is the same with China and other countries. America will have to self-rely on itself - causing it to recycle its own money over and over again to try and create home-grown industries that will initially be very expensive to run. \n\nCompetitive countries will strike deals with American allies and form new relationships that the USA hadn't foreseen - and the era will illustrate an international 'Us' vs US mentality. Countries will turn their back on America, knowing they can work well together than rely on the USA. \n\nThe average US citizen will be receiving tax rise after tax rise, causing more poverty within states and due to the 'xenophobic tariff mentality' - will find the middle income earner slip down to a lower grade, and ripple this effect. Medical aid will only benefit the rich while everyone else will pay for minimum service but premium for medication. \n\nThe price of food and transport will quadruple over the next 4 years, not because of the natural progression of price rise, but immediately due to tariff wars. \n\nAmericans, ultimately pay for tariffs - bullying words of 50 percent tariffs on another country means a surge in prices for everyday goods Americans take for granted. The only winner is the Government - which means it chooses what to spend on. \n\nA recession will hit hard....AGAIN -- on the USA.

Colombia has taken so many evil people and poor destitute people from Venezuela as refugees and it can’t absorb them but Colombians normally come legally to the USA and make great Americans my family in law for example are good conservative people who support Trump and I’d like to have my family in the USA all in one place especially is colombia will turn into Venezuela under a corrupt regime who has ruined everything and hurt most of the citizens idk how he won if he did even win but the USA came into Colombia before to stabilize it and it worked for a long time and there are 30,000 U.S. expats here or people with family ties or like me who happened to marry into a Colombian family. Not long ago I saw Trump with former President Duque and their wives and there was a beautiful relationship and colombia was booming in one year the USA must put back the former establishment and restabilize the mess that has been made under this communist guerrilla member and I hope saying this doesn’t bring lash back to me or my family here in Colombia. But my husband and me want to come home to the USA as soon as possible he isn’t a criminal his father is a Pastor at a small countryside church they don’t deserve this.

I agree, why don't they rise against their own nations as a free people and take back their countries!!! They obviouslt have desires to elevate their lives in some way, we americans had to fight for our country and it wasn't exactlt easy, these people are weak and pathetic for running away from their problems only to bring our country more problems that we can't deal with ourselves, I say we just hand them all a surplus of guns and a campaign plan to take back their own country lol, as much as I hate seeing any human suffer aside from rapists and murderers and child sex abusers, we in America have too many problems ourselves, and I was always told if you can't fix yourself, or love yourself how can you ever hope to be and good for anyone else, and that rings so true with everything, these people need to stand on their own 2 feet and fight against whatever tyranny they have and become a free people, I know if they did that someday they would probably succeed, and perhaos if they did start fighting for their freedom and trying to take back their country, we Americans might help them succeed in those endeavors some way or another...Who knows, these people need to rush their own governments and plead with them or overtake them, they can bum rush our borders I see no reason why they're not capable of doing the same in their own country, massive numbers beats out a shaggy old military and corrupt government any day everytime, yes many lives lost, but the sounds of trumpets for victort will ring out loudly on the end, and the people can finally have the lives and country they desire, we ain't it right now folks so turn back around and take all this border crossing energy to fight against your own establishments

What do we import from Columbia?\nThe retaliation is stupid because all that does is punish Americans with higher prices on the imported goods.
