I hate trump supporters and the president right now because they got rid of the law that protected black people. I do not understand why almost every white people would hate people's skin. I hate that they are trying to recreate World War 2. Please veto Trump because he is doing the wrong thing. He even made another law that if you catch a person that crossed the border, they get 1,000 thousand dollars. Trump shouldn't be president because of the bad things now he has done. Tiktok is banned because of him.

This absolutely must stop! Americans themselves have great difficulties just trying to survive!

I lived on the border in California 3years ago. When Biden took office, illegals were coming over the border in large groups. I woke up to them sleeping on my front porch, trying to walk in my house, and checking car doors. I had neighbors that were victim to car jacking. I was just glad I still had the 2nd amendment to protect myself and my family. This has gotten out of control!

In response to the ugly dictator running the US of North America , many of us around the world had decided not to buy products made in the US , here in Canada word is going around to try NOT to buy US products . \nMy phone is Apple , but made in Mexico , once my phone is dead I will be happy to switch to Samsung

Put up heavy circular gates to only allow one at a time through and use of force after for those that try to hop the fences

Are Trump supporters not understanding how crazy this is? Whether or not this issue is resolved, the guy has been in office for a week and he's already implementing protectionist measures as a political strategy. This is such a bad move for a country's economy. Y'all can’t even afford proper healthcare, groceries are insanely expensive, and you elect such an unstable person? I'm not trying to be judgy, but I genuinely don’t understand how you could see this and think, 'Yeah, that's my President.' Like, what?

If they want to stop people from trying to get to the U.S., they need to arrest the people who are responsible for undocumented people being able to get jobs. The fact that people can get jobs without proper visas encourages people to try. No jobs = fewer migrants.

Yea this is not the time to try and bully your way into our country, FAFO

These savages need to go home and try to enter the right way like good normal people!!!

They should count themselves lucky over in Poland you get shot when you try to do this

And I'm waiting for a liberal idiot to explain to me how this is not an invasion. All this wonderful diversity they're trying to bring into our country. Why are they running away from what their ancestors built and trying to break into and take advantage of what my ancestors built?

Right in the middle of the crowd is a tall black dude trying to make his way back from the donkey show?

He’s trying to destroy the market.

Stop whitewashing your wording. They are not undocumented migrants. They are illegal immigrants! I'm sorry that words hurt you guys and possibly the majority of your viewers but that's the truth! If someone wants to come here, I have no problem with that nor do the majority of Americans. This is an amazing nation. However, there are many legal ways to do it. I've served with several fellow Marines that did it the right (legal) way. And let's not forget, it's not only people from Central and South America that are pouring across that southern border. We've caught countless people on the terrorist watch list including people from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the like pouring across the border because they know how easy it is. Everyone is just mad because we finally have leadership that is doing something about it. And apparently, the libtards are either simply naive enough to think bad people would not come across the border and all those caravans are full of innocent women and children or they are trying to bring about the downfall and collapse of the United States. This is all simply ridiculous!

Oh my god... OH MY GOD my head hurts trying to UNDERSTAND THIS DUDE!!!!

Its not retaliatory... are you guys slow or thinknyour viewers are? Its a retard tax because they refused to take back their own citzens... but guess what they ended up taking their criminals back now didnt they? Stop reporting dumb crap and trying to title it and spin it in a way itll feed the morons that watch you and let you form their opinions for them, oh wait thats the goal i forgot

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

This fits Trump's narrative too well. CNN coverage has changed since ownership switched hands. We knew it would be gradual perceptive switch but it has indeed fallen from the standards of the past. Closer to a fox for the next caste up. You only know what you are shown. You work the same job and see the same people. If you watch the same news outlets you are exposing yourself to information crafted from the same perspective. My world is small vs reality and yours is too. Think about the decades of Americans trying to keep them out, investing money in walls and barriers and wire when we could have helped stabilize these countries to where these guys wouldn't feel like they HAD to come here to live with dignity. All To be treated like this. We have had decades to fix the problem acknowledge the root problem, but we spend our tax money, time, and efforts reapplying bandaids and barriers at the border.

Try Lock the front gate first then nail the doors

After CNN tried to talk bad about Trump for his decision to tariff Columbia... I wish bias media would just let the President show you why he was elected and why he's president and not y'all. Columbia immediately changed course and now accepting all Trump planes with their own citizens and they are sending their own planes and paying for flights rejected. CNN salty now

Hey, yankies. Tariffs only hurt the American people, not Trump. So, are the UNITED STATES OF TERRORISM gearing up to try and destroy yet another SOVEREIGN government? Like they have around the world and most recently in Ukraine. ????\nThe world is wise to you yanks now. YANKS, NO THANKS. STOP THE ISRAELI/ US OCCUPATION OF GAZA. FREE PALESTINE ????????????????????????

Ridiculous! They are trying to complete their goal - total take over of America. If you don't stop it, they certainly won't!!

can someone tell me this is not invasion? please help me understand. If a group of people trying to jump the fence to get into your house, would you stop them?

Americans cant buy food.....they taxed to death to support the people were trying to support! Do some research and leaen how things work

Good try Colombia by standing up the bully. accept your people and send them back to their native land America ?

Donald Trump acts like a little Hitler. Go ahead Donald You just goes for those tariffs on everybody and see our exports drop like a rock seriously sunny and the price of everything in the stores quadrupling. I actually hope so I actually hope eggs go to $30 for 12 eggs I hope tomatoes are 15 bucks of tomato and avocados or $30 an avocado and a t-bone steak is 100 because American people just we have it too good in this country for so long now we get a president that's acting like a dictator and violating law after law in the first week he tried to get rid of the inspector generals The ID inspector general and they just told Donald well we're not going to quit You can't make us quit You're vitally in the law Mr Trump we're showing up to work Monday. I hope mos The people in the garment to tell Donald to shove it up his backside that were coming into work and only have allegiance to the Constitution not a want to be Hitler or dictator or king we only pledge our allegiance to the Constitution and since you don't you didn't put your hand on the Bible I don't see you as president Donald what your left hand can't put your hand on the Bible and swear it oath to the Constitution is it that hard or are you swearing at nose to Vladimir Putin I bet that's what you're doing I mean you act like you you're butt off by some big billionaire Elon the ketamine snorter

Biden to blame what a desater he should be tried for treason

I like to see them try that in Korea.I like to see them try that in China.And I'd love to see them.Try that in russia and especially poland

Haha cnn trying to make it sound like a bad thing! Colombia shouldnt have tried to act tough! Its their people to begin with

Imagine trying to sit on a high horse about US treating your migrant citizens badly, while refusing to even take them back in the first place. The Colombian president can eat shit.

How to make the whole world hate you one country at a time. He’s been president now for 5 days and he’s already trying to bully Mexico Panana Canada Denmark Greenland and counting.

Man that sucks, all the FINE Colombian women trying to migrate to the U.S., come on Mr. Trump, I’m a Passport Bro! I rather date Colombian Women than American Women.

You need to put the National Guard on duty. This is the result of trying to stop mass mihration\n This was allowed over Democratic rule and now must be stopped by Trump. And you and I.

Nope. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200.\nThanks for trying but No, bye.\nGo file your paperwork.

Good luck trying to buy expensive coffee MAGA?

Look at CNN salivating over what they thought was a loss for Trump , lol. Trump won again!!!! He (the Columbia. President) backed down!!!! Try again!!!Better luck next time CNN

It might take longer, but we're just trying to make Colombia great, again.

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.

Just remember folks, President Trump does not care about the American people. President Trump is more focused on Greenland and Canada instead of fixing the high cost of inflation. Shame on you President Trump. You ran on fixing the economy. Not trying to acquire Greenland and Canada. Shame on you, President Trump what a waste of a vote.

The Scorpion and the Frog.\nThe USA is the frog trumps fascist wet dream is trying to ride.

I don't understand the point the Colombian president was trying to make. It doesn't matter what kind of planes are used to transport them, those people broke the law and their actions are costing American tax payers thousands of dollars. Why did it take tariffs for him to offer his own plane?

You work with other countries & they work with you. Act like you're a mob boss threatening allies & kissing enemies asses & the rest of the world is going to get it's back up & fight back. Columbia just wasn't playing the game of the strongman look Trump was trying by sending a military plane instead of a passenger plane.

Trump better stock up on laxatives very soon. Guatemala will not be exporting bananas any more and his mornings may be spent trying to get his shit out in a timely manner.

Trumps' going to try this with the wrong country and the pilots and crew will be arrested for human smuggling and sentenced to prison terms. He'll cry and whine that it's hostage taking despite the US having the same laws and punishments.

Welcome to the tariff club Colombia. Probably US was trying to dump people other than colombians, maybe venezuelans.

About time cut the crap work. Americans need to get on same page you want more great create more value you don't create for others to make lives better than no pay \n\nWe are community. Hard times shoot we have all been there thinking someone thinking besides yourself is responsible is a lie. You enter this earth with curses or bless from your parents and generations so what you going to do sin more and curse your family more or not pass the buck and obey Jesus..\n\n\nJesus said to serve and sluggers aka people who don't serve others don't deserve to eat. What he's trying to tell when he's saying work to serve others like you do him is people have all you ever wanted so learn how to be of value and service. America you can do so will it be easy no but we need to stop corruptness.\n\nI paid for my familys curses so my children don't have and what does the wicked tell me it's not fair when you work three jobs to come up and constant study of improvement of personal value I'm so so so sick of liars trying to to blame people of there conditions instead of turning to the king who will work all for good stop having faith in the wicked man god sent the sinless to lead you to right truthful stop believing convient lies from atheist.\n\nHeck even Rome couldn't stop Jesus words so instead try to control it with claiming there Christian don't make there sol victorious worship and Mary worship or sun/moon worship Rome was made from as truth. Please get the Bible and check for yourself study both sides prove Jesus isn't real.\n\nOnce you learn Jesus is here to lead u out of your self-destructiveness and knowing your sin curses your children this stuff will stop. \n\nYou can claim whatever but I can't disagree if Jesus didn't come our life would be 100x worse everywhere as America was built strongly after his words \n.

How to increase inflation within a week and, to drive South America closer to China. Isn't this what Trump was trying not to do.

Trying to get to a bar to watch the KC Buffalo Game

Tariffs try to stop us from buying their goods.... EVERYONE suffers

People emigrate from columbia to the US because the US is wealthier. The tariffs will make Colombia poorer meaning more people trying to migrate to America
