Thank you, President, for making it less appealing for these people to stay. Enough is enough. May they go hone and elect their own Trump, like Argentina and Poland did did.

Absolutely NO immigrants from muslim countries. \nIts too much of a security risk and any country with high muslim population makes the country less safe for everyone, especially girls and women. \nThis is a GLOBAL STATISTICAL FACT.

I am just listening to this and as a Canadian I have hundreds of US friends who cannot afford health insurance at all, for others they paying $600 per month plus for insurance with huge copays and very often can’t pay for meds. I think you are truly uninformed on the US healthcare availability. I would think the chances are of walking into an er and being seen in less than 30 mins unless they were in critical condition. The US is one of the unhealthiest nations in the developed world, with a shorter lifeline than most others. Take a look at GoFundMe medical needs and you will be devastated. Don’t make guesses or assumptions do your homework!

couldn't care less about their problems, go back to from where you came

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!!!!

UPDATE: Less than an hour after Trump made these threats the Colombia sent the president’s plane to collect their deported criminal migrants on our behalf and all tariffs have been dropped. CNN viewers are morons.

I understand their right to do that if they voted for it but why does Trump keep saying that Canadians need to secure the U.S. border when less than 1% of the migrants come from Canada and less than 0.01% of the fentanyl comes from Canada but illegals are coming from the U.S. into Canada and 90% of the guns used in murders in Canada came from America! Also 80-90% of the narcotics comes through the U.S.

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.

So the one trick pony pulled out his one trick. Going to work less and less each time, but the stupid don't realize that.

Good Lord , can Trump and Vance not send two planes from A to B without causing a crisis and putting US Airforce crews in danger , no mind US Airforce assets and the thousands upon thousands of dollars down the drain plug! Less high life and more in the situation room overseeing their regime!

All of you making less than 100k/yr-you're f'ed. You'll be on food stamps and lose your house in just 6 months.

Yes, you can buy coffee that does not come from Colombia. However, when one supplier raises their prices for their product, this means demand rises for their competitor's product -- and an increase in demand will cause the competitor to raise their prices to slightly less than the supplier who is raising prices due to tariffs. This is done to maximize profits and take full advantage of the increase in demand.

The two flights to Mexico that got turned away carried less than 100 migrants cost US taxpayers $900,000! CNN might want to mention that. Drumpf used expensive military jets because he just couldn't wait for CBP jets (because he wanted a photo shoot!). He should have to pay for the extra cost out of his pocket, not ours. What will it cost to take migrants back to China? Tax cuts for the billionaire broligarchs cost US money. Using C-130 aircraft is overkill and affects military readiness. Threatening tariffs on our allies is going to spark trade wars. He's a moron.

What a man president trumps probably the best American president ever .cnn why do you not report that less than a hour after saying he was going to introduce tariffs on Columbia . There president agreed to take them back . And this was 3 hours ago . CNN Why do you to continue to lie to the American people and the world .what a disgusting so called news channel you are

Have you no more shame or pride as journalists??? The Columbian President caved in less than an hour, rendering your entire anti-Trump narrative irrelevant and clearly biased. This is not news, it's censorship and propaganda ?‍♂️

Spending taxpayers money yet his promise for less expensive groceries is nowhere to be addressed lol America is fucked. You all are slaves to the Billionaires ?

Trump is the biggest threat to US national security. In less than a week, he made these new enemies: Canada Mexico UK Greenland Denmark Panama and Colombia.

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.

Haha the Colombian President has just agreed to take them back!!??? Trump doing in less than a week what Biden refused to do! We already knew what the root causes were thank God Harris did not get elected. Trump showing us all how incompetent they were????????

TRUMP REMEMBER UR CREATING LESS ALLIES WITH ALL THIS BRO. In a BIG WAR right now. THE WHOLE WORLD COULD BE AGAINST USA. AND ONLY THE AMERINCANS Will BE THE ONLY ONES FIGHTING. BE SMART

Oh and the Columbian President caved like a little bitch in less than an hour. PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH, FAFO.

Dismantle every single incentive for coming in illegally.\nNo financial aid, no phones, no housing..nothing. \nIt will slow to a trickle in less than a month..

Update , less than 3 hours later Columbia caved and is taking the illegals. President Trump winning again.

Hes a doosh making things more expensive not less

Trump needs to learn the world is not at his knees. He is an obnoxious bully who thinks he and he alone can save the world. In less than one week he has insulted, threatened and lied so many times I lost count. Releasing convicted criminals who amongst other things, assaulted police officers. All this from a convicted felon! Well Donnie, go ahead and impose your tariffs on the world. America, because of you has become a pariah amongst the rest of the world.

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.

I really don't care if I have to pay a bit more for things if it means you clean up the streets ffs. The issue is paying more and getting nothing out of it! Or even worse, paying more for less! Which is what happens when democrats run this country.

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).

Why isn’t CNN reporting the almost immediate resolution to this? In less than an hour after Trump’s message the Colombian President apologized and said he’d even send a plane to take his illegals back.

trump is ultimately only hurting Americans...such an idiot! Because Americans will not be able to afford the tariffs, hence less trade.

We let this shit happen that when you want to give free money housing health able to pop out 10 kids and pay for everyone , while we the tax payers have to eat it and stay quiet . We the legal business owner have to settle for what ever we are offered for a job to get by cause there is always someone gonna do it for 10 times less when it could be paid to the people the holds licenses. We don’t get money in the back or a card every month for food we are denied , am vets a getting the bear minimum, and the piece of food is not changing ,

In less than 40 minutes ?❤!!!! Thats a leader!!!

After less than one week in office, how many leaders of other countries has Trump managed to piss off? Stay tuned for more from the self-proclaimed anti-war prez. If he keeps this up, we'll end up being at war with half the world & with no allies.

All Colombia has to do is place an immediate embargo on all coffee exports to the US.\nAmericans will crumble in less than a week.

US doesn’t have to deport these illegals to different countries. Just send them thru southern border to Mexico, where they came thru. Very less money wasted n in deportation

Colombia folded in less than 30 minutes, proving why we should never let leftists make foreign policy decisions.

Two facts:\n1. Republican supporters benefit a lot from illegal migrants \n2. Republicans deported less illegal migrants than Democrats \n\nYou don't believe me, google it

Less than an hour later, Colombian president folds, and is even going to use his own presidential plane to assist in the deportations . Another narrative shot down, the efficacy of tariffs fully being exemplified at the moment. Time to focus on crying families again because you got smashed on this narrative and rather quick I must say.

CNN knows their consumers are not intelligent enought to use critical thinking. Notice their verbiage? They use words like migrants. This is an ILLEGAL MIGRANT issue and a CRIMINAL one at that. Bringing China into this converstion is illogical. Very few Chinese immigrants are illigal and even less are criminals. Unfortunately this is a dark skin issue (which we created).

Ha!!! I KNEW you couldn’t tell the whole story!!!! Columbia caved in less than an hour!!!! So much so…their “president” said that he will also be sending his own presidential plane to help bring his illegals back!!! \nI KNEW y’all couldn’t tell the whole truth !!!!!

CNN sucks dirty nuts ?this shit was resolved in less than one hour

You can bet that every country he has threatened with tariffs, travel restrictions and other sanctions are already taking steps to be ready for them. Not only tit-for-tat tariffs etc, but also plans pulling national funds and other investments out of US banks and corporations and numerous other less obvious retaliations. The Law of Unintended Consequences is about to kick into effect big time and it will be interesting to see how it is manifested. Putin and Xi must be laughing their asses off.

Orange man imposed tariffs oh he’s so tough. I wonder how quickly he will sink his own ship. Hopefully in less than a month, Trump has NO power.

So Trump is still deporting much less than Obama and Biden. failed.

Your headline should read, “Trump Makes Colombian Socialist Leader Fold Like A Card Table.” Trump backed him down in less time than it took him to play the back nine.

The point being missed is, WE AMERICANS DO NOT HAVE TO BUY ANY PRODUCTS THAT ARE TARIFFED! WHICH WILL ONLY BE HARDER FOR COLUMBIA! I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT ANY ILLEGAL ALIENS! THE AMERICAN DREAM IS NOT FOR THE FREAKING CRIMINALS…THE AMERICAN DREAM IS FOR AMERICANS!!

Yeah this is what happens when you have a leader that actually has a backbone that walks his talk. Took less than an hour for Colombian president to recognize Trump ain't Biden and start actin right and accept those planes lol.

Sanctions for supporting a different view point than trump. We are becoming less and less of a free country

So trump really could care less that we the citizens of United States will have to pay for it. You can’t get any more stupid than that.

And the Columbian president folded to trump in less than 30 minutes hahaha
