What do we trade with Colombia ? Why is he going to tax Americans ?

Tarrifs = Trump Tax.

Rounding up and holding all these people is going to cost America billions.\nThese people also pay tax and they frequent small businesses putting money back into the economy.

Time to change the name of Venezuela to Venezuela of the United States and start charging them with taxes to pay towards the United States.

Does he still don't understand he is taxing us of America??? He's ignoring the cold hard facts

Welcome to your latest tax hikes, Americans.

So, trump hits american companies buying stuff from columbia with a tariff. Columbia does not pay the tariff and it is not going to affect anyone but the american consumer who the american companies, who paid the hidden tax he just imposes on us, the consumer, won't actually pay in the long run because that tariff just becomes part of their cost of goods that they will add to their sales prices.

Sell citizenship applications.\nEmployees on H1 Visas. Should have a large employer/employee tax. To help find the system. In all areas.

Why bother with deportation flights, just deport them through southern border in which where they came in, it's not fair to American tax payers since they are the 1 who broke our laws, plus it would tremendous pressure on Mexico, imagine Mexico burden with 11 million illegal aliens.

What's wrong with this Drama Dolnard Trump. In 1885, his grandfather frederick Trump left for Bremen to United states at the age of 16 years.\nHe should deport people that committed serious crimes not good people paying taxes.

Every time countries don't bow to your threats you punish the American consumers by raising taxes, soon Americans will be poor and can't afford to buy anything. Idiots in charge.

u.s. tax payers still flip the majority of the bill anyway so this bluff he's calling is no type of any punishment

I will not let the taxes taken from my paycheck go to support illegal immigrants anymore.

All this illegal immigrant mess has to stop. My question is.. why we do not take care of our homeless people, our veterans, the drug issue, mental health in our country and we let the other countries resolve their issues. We cannot use our tax dollars to fix other peoples problems we have our own. CNN, MNSN are so ridiculous and indecent with Americans.!! Why i dont see images of all the homeless people sleeping in the subway.. i guess there are no shelters, debit cars and meals for them!! Ahh and before you said anything im a Venezuelan legal migrant now proud american!!

Nauseating to here media normalizing a criminal,rapist, felon, violent insurrectionist, tax fraud, wife cheater, liar, thief, intellectual midget, fake Christian and treasonous traitor referred to as president. Only corruption enabled this and corporate influence behind GOP ethical collapse \nNot the president. Illegitimate and mentally ill. Captain Blye.

The American people watched as migrants were granted all sorts of free reign to move toward our border including resources paid by those countries governments to keep them moving. The American people will fully support the return of the now illegal migrants back to their home countries and not mind about economic consequences that these news networks they bring up when these illegal migrants have already taxed our system in which we pay taxes. This will only highlight how little those migrants own home countries truly don’t care about them.

Ohh Gosh!! Now I have to pay more for my morning coffeee!! Please someone tell that Orange Turd its the us consumers has to pay that tax!

MR. RUBIO NEEDS TO TALK TO US \n((THE PEOPLE))\nCOME TO HAVE LUNCH WITH US?\nTHE POEOLE WE NEED YOU TO TELL EL SSAVADOR GOVERMENT THEY NEED TO A TOP THE STEALING OUR TAXES A ND START SHOWING ACCOUNTS WITH ALL THE EXPENCES AND SHOW ALL US WHAT THE $$$ IS BEING SPEND ON. THEY WONT STOP STEALING IF PTE. TRUMP DONT ASK FOR HUMAN RIGHTS AND CLEAR KNOWLEDGE OF EVERYTHING SPENDED HERE.?????

Lol all of americas enemies are going to offer 0% tax to whoever wants to buy or sell and see how it's just going to backfire at usa . It's obvious no ....

You telling me cocaine is about to get more expensive? How do you put a tariff on something you don't bother to tax in the first place?

More higher prices for US consumers. They and US importers are going to be filling up the US treasury pretty quickly as Trump keeps imposing more and more tariffs. While his clueless supporters keep believing his idiotic lie that foreign companies pay this tariff tax. Of course while the average consumer keeps paying up, there's more money for Trump to cut taxes for his rich friends, himself included.

25% tax on everything.....record price hikes on eggs are just the beginning.

They would lose LOTS of business as US buys a ton but we also produces it’s our own. Why they already backed down in under 1 hour. \n\nTariffs are used as a weapon, not a tax, because people will stop buying and buy elsewhere. Ultimately it becomes cheaper or the same to buy US made items meaning more U.S. workers.

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

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??

LOL…. If you don’t let my planes full of your citizens land I’m going to tax MY citizens….. oh no…..

Trump taxes Americans as revenge for beef with Columbia.

To be posted on all kinds of media:\n\nTrump's increase in the national debt will force Americans to pay taxes to China!

For these slow people, let me explain how this works: tariffs work as a tax on poor people. First time in the White House, Trump put a 25% tariff on China goods. Dollar Tree, which imports from china usually to sell everything for a dollar had to pay 25 cents on a dollar in taxes to collect the goods from the ports. So it passed that tax to the prices. So went from everything $1 to everything $1.25. a 25% percent inflation. Then China stopped buying soybeans from USA. Farmers went broke and Trump have to give them 29 billion in handouts so they won’t go broke. Genius?

So if the c-17's are 3 times the cost of civilian airliners, just send them back on civilian airliners, what's the problem there? Seems an easy fix and I as a tax payer don't want to pay 3 times more when it can be done cheaper. I Thought Trump was a businessman and knew about economics? I guess he's not interested in keeping it cheaper for us citizens. Furthermore if he tariffs China we are all in big trouble.

TAX Columbians Remitances to their home country. Columbia's President is a Jerk.

Taxes going up because stupid trunp in tariff trump sucks i rather have toilet be my president ????????????

So he's making AMERICANS pay higher taxes!?

Raisin tariff taxes want solve the problem

Tariffs will be sent as aid to Isra hell courtesy of your zl0 nist govt \nMeanwhile Americans will pay extra by inflation & taxes

Coffee is going up in the US. Starbucks will pass the tax onto the consumer.

How are you going to tariff something that doesn’t come into the country through legal means? Nobody wants their nose candy taxed.

So Trump was thankful for hispanics voting him in and he's thanking the countries we're they originally came with taxes basically. Idiots. -_-

More are yet to come, that's what the world should expect from a convicted Head of state. 25% tax on food and fruits will immensely affect Americans who voted Trump, not Colombians.

In this case: raising revenue for the country = get Americans to pay tariff taxes

On what grounds? The rule of (tax) law requires Trump to follow certain rules to impose such tariffs. Trump can’t just impose tariffs.

Using US military aircraft to deport migrants is way more expensive than just sending them home on a regular airline flight. It's all a performative waste of our tax money.

? you were warned. The government is going to add 25% tax on your cocaine.

So happy to be a proud AMERICAN it’s time for yall to go back to where you came from and get taxed to the fullest extent please leave so our country can be great again

I just don't understand why countries don't want their criminal citizens back! Save American tax dollars and let them walk back to their countries.

It will collapse the\nColombian Government. I mean 25%- 50% tax on Colombian goods? Don't mess with him, He is wild I nevers seen anything like this

I can't get eggs and now coffee, TAXING TRUMP TARIFFS

Free ride is over.American tax payers are broke from paying immigrants way through life.They are panicking because Kamala isn't walking them in to destroy our country.Heres proof,give them an inch,they will take a mile.

Then they will seek assylum. And will be granted a permanent resident.. Liberals will give them money to start in Canada while taxing Canadians to death.

Outrageus and who is funding the travel to Mx and Mx to the border - the UN, WEF, NGOs and where do they get the funds our tax dollars.
