These countries have been robbing our American taxpayers for decades, we finally have a President that is standing up for us!

Sorry Canada, I'm American like the 50 percent of Americans who can't stand Donald Vonshiztenpants. Canada is a Beautiful country, I've visited often.

America always try to bullying to get his way, I can't wait BRICS countries stand up to America

Will to those countries trump sanctions, stand tall as America wouldn't be able to hold for long. They needs your products ,you must now group together and counter with your sanctions too ! Only when he surrenders ,but still must keep your sanctions on .until he begs like a begger .

I am so sorry I think most of Americans have the greatest respect for canada I make 850 a month on SSI I will have to go hungry but I dont blame the great people of Canada Canadians stand your ground our government has turn their backs on us they purged our votes 3.5 million. In 2 yrs. We will take our country back We love you and stand with you

I hate that Canada is having to stand up to my country, but I'm glad that they are willing to. We are going down a very dark path and as much as it pains me to say, I think that distancing themselves from the US is a very wise decision. Canada will always be an ally to me, it sucks that we've betrayed them.

The same movie is coming to your country sooner than later. Just wait till puppet scholz leaves and you have a leader with cojones who stands for his people and his nation.

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.

Hahaha Canada is going to fold…their economy cannot stand the tariffs more than 6 to 8 days. The US can in house or import everything from other countries. Canada doesn’t have the luxury…the US protects the moment of their goods. \n\nBtw Germany…the US protects the moment of your goods as well…don’t test the US.

Nice job Canada. I hope you stand your ground and stick with this.\nContinue to connect w/ Mexico & I hear other countries are going to work with you & Mexico to keep you guys strong.\nIt’s probably a good thing since you won’t have to deal with the toxins the America puts in all of our products, especially since we now don’t have any regulations to protect the consumers.\nI am cheering for Canada & Mexico from the US. But as soon as I can convince my parents to leave…take us please, unless CA becomes part of Canada or Mexico. ?

It's incredible that so many of the people commenting here don't understand the reason for the tariffs. We're being invaded by illegal aliens and deadly drugs. The point of the tariffs is to prod your leadership into doing the right thing. Stop allowing our country to be flooded with poisons that are killing us. If you're really good guys, you would stand up to the actual bad guy, your prime minister Trudeau. Keep in mind he's flooding your country with dangerous islamists. You should want that to stop

They should stand together and FIX THEIR OWN COUNTRY

What’s wrong with them, can’t they be aggressive with their own government. They would probably get a better outcome than what they’re doing now. \nWhy can’t they stand up and do this to their on country instead of over populating our country. They need to fix their on country. We are tired of being second in our on country. We have people right now especially our Veterans that are on the streets as I am typing this that desperately need help. So I am sorry if I don’t feel anything for you guys. You all want your cake and eat it to. You people want a free ride and that train has left already.

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

Nope. Let trump do his thing. Our country over everything. Thankful for a President who stands on business.

This happens when the real owners of a country stand up

Better carry your paperwork on you if you have dark skin before name, you might find yourself being rounded up. One man was already picked up at a restaurant at work. He had a green card legally allowed to be here. Didn’t stop them from dragging away think about being held for 8 to 12 hours Being legally allowed to be here or being an American citizen and your family not knowing where you’re at the last time Donald Trump was in office. American citizens were deported south of the border and two were shot in the living room. One gentleman was deported an American citizen who had diabetes. They deported him yet no medication on him no money to country. He didn’t know he died on the streets. Please stop thinking it can’t happen to you Donald Trump right now is rounding up American Indians Navajo and Saint American citizens it’s time to call your son your senators your governors. It’s time to speak out. Stop standing there, thinking it won’t happen to you.

I wish the Dems would realize that illegal entry cannot stand. Trump needs to make a decree that makes it impossible to get anything from any level of government. That would stop the flow immediately. Most of these aren't people working toward a goal, they just want to escape their impoverished country. Stay in your own countries, stop voting in Socialists, and make your governments responsive to the common good. You can have what America represents to you with some work.

TRUMP MAKING A GREAT MOVE TO MAKE THIS COUNTRY STAND BY THE MOST HIGH LAWS & COMMANDMENTS!!!!!! GET RID OF THE DEMONS!!!!

This is very disturbing to see. This is my country. ??They didn’t care enough to stand up and fight for their country

I stand with our transgender members of our military. They chose to service and defend our country. I do not stand with the Jan6 insurrectionists who chose to attack our Capitol and assault police officers. They chose to tear our country down.

Because Biden told them to surge the border and they forgot a new commander in chief has taken over! His name is Trump and he stands on his word. Those wanting to come into our country must come legally or face the consequences.

I agree with some comments here need to stand together and fix your own Country and Government Mexico good example

I can’t find the proper words to describe how I’m feeling about the life in Canada! I feel extremely disappointed and angry. EVERYTHING has changed since the early 80s unrecognizably, even the service and how different people treat or mistreat each other!! There is no more courtesy, politeness and human respect in hospitals, government offices, banks, etc. \nThe elected government officials are mostly corrupt, unfit for their duties and pursue only a personal agendas in promotion to a higher level! \nRight now, as of January 2025 we are again expecting endless flows of refugees from Gaza along to anticipated tax increases imposed by Trump. \nI have no more words! I feel that this country becoming a dump with an unbearable quality of life. I am feeling mostly depressed and feel no joy due to current conditions and limited opportunities here. I simple cannot even stand it any more and can’t wait when I would be able to find a new place of my residence outside of Canada!

This only happens to white countries. Our soft liberalism means they take advantage of us. Time to take a stand.

I’m a Canadian I will never live in the USA I love my country we don’t have to worry about getting sick and having to mortgage our house to afford it. So no I would never ever live there. Besides that I can’t stand your president and his yes boys or his nazi musk

Go home and fix your own country. America stands for Americans. Everyone of the people are invaders and should be treated as such?

? 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 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

Good for Columbia! Texas did it, dumped immigrants to sanctuary states, so, again good for Columbia. Good for Canada, Greenland, Japan, and a whole lot more standing against Bully Trump. Its so embarassing for our country!

I knew that was going to happen. Trump thought he could just dump plane loads of people in another country. There's going to be a lot more resistance, not only here in the u.s. but around the world. The fascist and the oligarchs have to go. It's time to stand. Let's unite in large numbers.And we don't go till our demands are met. We'll put the whole country on hold. THE ART OF THE DEAL.

Less than an hour Columbia is now sending their presidential plane to pick up those illegals. About time we have a president who stands up for our country. Job well done Trump, what an amazing week, lets not stop there keep on going.

He is pissing off the world one country at a time and people are going to stop travelling to the US and buying goods made in the US.\n No one likes a bully and he is managing to do more damage to the US and their reputation. Americans will be treated like crap in Europe, Canada, Greenland and Panama and the list continues to grow. The world population is going to stand together against this mentally ill wanna be dictator. People are not going to put up with his crap.

Read this American Trump is destroying your Contry if not he gets remove\n\nExplanation of Article 5\nArticle 5 of the NATO treaty is the cornerstone of the alliance's collective defense principle. It states that an attack on one NATO member is considered an attack on all members. This mutual defense clause has been invoked only once—after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.\n\nThe United States is bound by Article 5, meaning it cannot disregard its obligations to other NATO members, such as Denmark. The principle ensures that all members protect and support each other, creating collective security.\n\nWho Pays for Tariffs?\nA tariff is a tax or duty imposed on imported goods. There’s often confusion about who ultimately pays for tariffs. Here are the key points:\n\nImporters Pay Tariffs: When goods cross a border, the importer in the receiving country is charged the tariff.\nHigher Prices for Consumers: Importers typically pass these costs to consumers, making goods more expensive in the country imposing the tariffs.\nImpact on Competitiveness: While tariffs can make domestic goods more competitive, they often harm the economy by reducing trade and innovation.\nFor example, if the U.S. imposes high tariffs on European goods, American consumers and businesses bear the cost through higher prices, not European producers.\n\nTrade and Alliances\nThe text highlights the interconnectedness of trade policy and diplomacy. Harmful trade policies, such as aggressive tariffs, can damage relationships with long-standing allies like Denmark and the EU. If the U.S. alienates its allies, it risks losing the strategic partnerships and security benefits provided by NATO and other agreements.\n\nDenmark and other EU countries offer trade opportunities but expect respect and cooperation in return. Breaking ties with the EU or NATO could leave the U.S. isolated and weaken its global influence.\n\nConclusion\nArticle 5 ensures mutual security within NATO, including for the U.S.\nTariffs often hurt the country imposing them, as costs are passed to domestic consumers.\nStrong alliances are critical for both trade and security. Conflicts with EU or NATO countries could isolate the U.S. and undermine its global partnerships.

CNN always reports pro trump now. You are disgusting. \nReport the truth \nWe stand with Columbia\nWe will all trade with Columbia . USA makes nothing we don’t make. USA has voted to kill their own country. FAFO is going to be wild and funny AF

Venezuelan people need their country back from the dictatorship that plagued it. We heard the stories from their own people who should be standing up against oppression. Not running away from it

It kills me that rather than these immigrants get together and stand up in their own countries to make their homelands better they rather come to the United States. The United States have fought wars on our homeland for our freedom and independence for our own ppl. War is bad but why not stay in your own country and fight for your land.

I can’t stand Trump. But these countries need to take responsibility for their citizens. We can’t take more illegal migrants.

COLUMBIAN PRESIDENTS MESSAGE TO TRUMP - I don’t like your oil, Trump. You are going to wipe out the human species because of greed. Maybe one day, over a glass of whiskey—which I accept despite my gastritis—we can talk frankly about this. But it’s difficult because you consider me an inferior race, and I am not. Nor is any Colombian. If you know someone who is stubborn, that’s me—period. You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and arrogance, like they did with Allende, but I will die in my law. I resisted torture, and I resist you. \n \nI don’t want slavers next to Colombia. We’ve already had many, and we freed ourselves. You may kill me, but I will survive in my people, who were here in the Americas long before yours. We are people of the winds, the mountains, the Caribbean Sea, and of freedom. You don’t like our freedom? Fine. I don’t shake hands with white slavers. I shake hands with the white libertarian heirs of Lincoln and the black and white farm boys of the USA—at whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield I reached after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from COVID. They are the United States, and before them, I kneel. Before no one else. \n \nOverthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. Your blockade does not scare me because Colombia, besides being a country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know you love beauty, as I do. Do not disrespect it, or you will lose its sweetness. From today on, Colombia is open to the entire world with open arms. We are builders of freedom, life, and humanity. \n \nI am informed that you imposed a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States. I do the same. Let our people plant corn—which was discovered in Colombia—and feed the world. And so now, less than one week into this, I say: We will stand firm. We will resist. We will thrive. \n \nThe president of Colombia does not want a U.S. military plane in his country—and fair enough. Instead, he brings his people home in style, aboard his presidential plane. It’s a statement of dignity, independence, and pride. Colombia stands firm, choosing its own path and honoring its people with the respect they deserve.

Dear CNN,\nPresident Trump pulling tail leave head\n(do you have any idea that who emptied your barn godowns and converted english countries as countries of worthless?).\nThe people (true culprits) who stand as threat to US (and english and Christian european) hide somewhere (these impostors so far received no damages, besides american couldn't identify wolf and sheep).\nThese south american are people of less harm (these people easily fell into the hands of security forces and receiving humiliation).\nStudy about the charector of immigrants and treat accordingly (in the way that is suitable).\nHarassing neighbours bring bitter yielding (in long term/for a long period of time).

I am so glad those countries are standing up to this bully and his fascist party. I am also glad he is putting tariffs on them which means things over here will become higher for all of us. Yes the good is going to have to suffer with those that wanted to see how it feels to have this country ran by the lawless, no morals racists people in this country. To have rapist, drunks and traitor to this country in charged. And those White people that voted for him they are going to feel it to maybe even more because he takes his money right out of their account every month and they can not stop it. They need to listen to Billy Graham sermon called Choices. Please do not never think Franklin Graham is like his father he is not he is like the father that Christ speaks about in John 8 verse 44 and all those that voted for Trump and helped spread or spreading his lies. The word called them oligarchies and Trump calls them his people but the bible calls the MAGA party, the false men and women that help spreads his lies and those that worship Trump an Idolater. All of them are from Franklin Graham to the proud boys. These so call men and women of their god have deceived many for him. Those corrupted judges or no different than the proud boys. The whole MAGA party is no different than the proud boys. These people are no different than the racists proud boys, 700 club, TBN, Jentezen Franklin, Donnie Swaggart, John Hagee, Jim Jordan, Mike Johnson, Mike Huckabee, Paula White. No different just different level in life but in God's eyes they all on the same worshipping a man. And to the rich read about the rich man that went to hell, and about the rich man that built his barn. We only make them strong they can only do what we allowed them to do. There are more good in this country than those evil people. I hear a man say you can take 100 evil people and make millions fall in line and do what they say because they fear what the evil people can do. One thing I do know for sure God and me are enough... but God and me and millions more of children we will do just fine in the next two years and more.

Bravo Columbia!. All countries of the world need to stand up to this bully.

Im so used to our previous evil presidents I literally can believe we have a president that actually stands up to defend our country ???

Stand STRONG ??????? ALL countries and DON'T ALLOW any USA planes carrying immigrants to LAND...VAMOS,.SI SE PUEDE SI SE PUEDE, SI SE PUEDE!\nOhhhh and fdjt hoy y sempre!!!

Trumps way or highway forget what’s written in the American constitution!!!! It’s all clear sailing for trump his space crazed friend \nElon can pay off any judicial system judge trump needs!!!!! Make trump great again!!!!!!!\nThis is a no win tariff stand off for any country including the USA!!!! Prices will rise in every country!!!!!

Trump is going ruin the US and isolate the country from the civilized world. The executive order to put a yellow patch on all that don’t applaud him will come soon. But the rest of the world will stand up to this bully

So now our chump president looks like the fool we all know he is. \nColumbia just ignore our fool and send your products to other countries that do not have a fool for a president! \nThank you for standing up for your country “you are the man!” America is the fool for allowing our resume fool-president to get away with his nonsense and cruelty. \n\nI personally hope every country follows suit and lets none of our plains land in heir countries for any reason

Good for Columbia. Stand proud and stand tall 60% of America is behind you all the way. The tariffs won't affect your country just makes prices higher for us which is what trump wants to do to keep all of us suppressed as all dictators do!!
