RETURN TO SENDER, \nBUT SENDER REFUSED?\nNo wonder Trump is right to get em out!\nImagine Columbia paying to return Americans it denied entry, only to have USA refuse to them to come home! \nTrump is right that many countries are taking advantage of America!

Trump taxes Americans as revenge for beef with Columbia.

I think you mean, Trump hits American companies who import goods from Columbia with tariffs so they can pass those costs down to American consumers. REPORT THE NEWS CORRECTLY or don't report it at all, ffs. Smh

Trump wins Americans lose.

Ahhh Yes, let it all begin!!! Its only been a week & Trump has done more than Biden / Harris did in 4 years. Love it absolutely love it, enough is enough & about time every country realizes they arent/cant keep sending their problems & illegal immigrants to our border to cross in / enter the U.S illegally! Hopefully Trump sticks to it & sends back as many of them as physically possible! Time to focus on making our country great again, eliminate the nonsense & ? show Biden/Harris created and allowed! All the south american and central american counries better wake up n deal with their wonderful citizens because its not the U.S job or obligation to just allow and accept them. If they want to do it legally and right way, sure im all for it, but enough is enough! How about we start sending all of our criminals etc to their countries on a free for all and thousands of them at a time not just a couple!?! Pretty sure the majority of U.S citizens have had enough & 99% are glad Trumps a man of his word & does what when & how he says it!

He is an IDIOT! Could someone tell him that tariffs cost Americans!!!\nIt doesn't affect the countries that Trump thinks he is punishing.\n\nCOUNTRIES ARE LAUGHING AT HIM BECAUSE HE IS MAKING IT HARDER FOR ANERICANS TO LIVE!\n\nTrump thinks he's being a tough guy. Wow 25% up to 50% against the countries. WRONG STABLE GENIUS WE, AMERICAN PEOPLE, PAY THAT 25% TARIFFS.\n\nCan someone send him a book explaining who actually pay tariffs!!!!

Yes and we are Winning as Americans. Trump listens to the legal Citizens. Those of you that wish to be a Citizen of America you need to follow the process. Follow the process or pay the price. How Dumb do you have to be?

Tariffs won't hurt Colombia, they will hurt American taxpayers. Dumb trump.

Trump better not mess with my coffee. Americans revolted over tea you think patriots won’t fight for their coffee?

REVENUE DOESN'T THIS MAN KNOW THAT WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE PAY THESE TARIFFS ??WHY DOESN'T SOMEONE ACTUALLY TELL DONALD TRUMP TO WAKE THE HELL UP!!!??

It's only going to hurt the American people, Trump is so fucking STUPID!

I don't like Trump at all, think he rallies people who are racist towards south and central americans, but also I think a good country never denies a plane full of it's citizens

They don't consume American goods and i don't do drugs Go Trump go !

Trump is just a puppet. He never left the set of The Apprentice he just changed location to the White House. Holding the puppet strings are all of the would-be oligarchs and authors of project 2025, and he's developing a posse of criminals to bully American citizens. My hope is that they're all heading for a steep cliff to fall into and disappear. Not practical but ever hopeful. That's probably not a very kind thing to say but so many people are suffering because of this 2025 administration. I don't even like to say his name because I have already had a shower today. ???

I tell you now.... \nHes already making the American people suffer \n\nColombia probably end up with brics\n\nStupid...\n\nI swear ... Trump \nIs Nero all over again \nHe's gonna burn down his own kingdom

You know what makes Trump a political buffoon? Americans took over Central and South America in the 1940s. Oh, now that the leader of Columbia turned back American military aircraft this announcer is said he's not popular with his people. And please, talk English.This isn't an immigrant crack-down if military craft fly to other countries at will.

Asian Americans for President Trump ✅

TRUMP ❤?? AMERICAN’S Come first above everyone PERIOD . Trump done more in a week then Biden did in four years

( YALL GETTING READY TO SEE THOSE CRYING AMERICANS WHO SAY “ THE FOREIGNERS ARE TAKING OUR JOBS “ OKAY THE JOBS ARE BECOMING AVAILABLE FOR YOU NOW GET OUT THERE AND WORK THOSE JOBS YOU CLAIM FOREIGNERS ARE TAKING . AMERICA GET READY FOR A FOOD SHORTAGE NOW AND TRUCKERS THERES \nGONNA BE SHORTAGE ON LOADS ALSO. Trump is\n Messing up something that helped America thrive for all these\n Many many many years. So now to you who were crying the foreigners taking our jobs OKAY THEY ARE GONE SO NOW THE JOBS ARE GONNA BE AVAILABLE FOR YOU LETS SEE IF THESE AMERICANS GET OUT AND NOW DONT THE WORK THE FOREIGNERS WERE DOING.

What products will Trump put tariffs on in Columbia, emeralds or cocaine? Trump is such a schmuck, it's embarrassing for sane Americans.

So, tRump way on governing is to threaten everyone that doesn't agree with him isn't that the approach of a dictator. But the tariffs are going to HURT US the American consumers not the other countries.

Tariffs are a two way street, and Americans will suffer higher prices on things like coffee that we import from Colombia. Trump being a bully is going to be very costly.

Trump doesn’t care if food prices go up for Americans. As long as McDonalds doesn’t go out of business and he can still go get his daily Big Mac, he could care less.

I think Columbia should load all the US ex-pats onto airplanes and send them back to their country. Trump can figure out what to do with 30,000 people of his own. All countries that he threatens should do the same. A sudden influx of people with no jobs and no homes to go to, should help the American economy as much as Trump dropping migrants off is doing to these countries.

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.

Trump thinks him spitefully putting Tarifs on these countries because they aren’t bowing to to him . Trump i keep saying he doesn’t care for humanity he out of anger and him being a narcissist and no empathy behind doesn’t care if we the people are negatively affected. No but his supporters this is who they wanted. Y’all tried to hurt those Americans who are your color but you hurt your own selves.

⚠️update NY Post : Colombian President Gustavo Petro quickly reversed course about accepting flights of deported migrants from the US after President Donald Trump threatened emergency tariffs of up to 50% on the South American country for refusing to cooperate.

Colombia already caved and are offering their own planes now to help. Thank you CNN for highlighting the power of Trump, tariffs and American patriotism!!!

great! \nlots of fruit, spices, coffees, chocolate, some metals, lime and other cement components, on and on and on are all about to have prices skyrocket. hope ya'll didn't want to buy any lumber, that's gonna suffer soon too\nso trump just wants to punish the american people because the columbian president refused to bend knee to his absurd display. this makes sense... *big sad sigh*

So in retaliation to Columbia, Trump punishes the American people?

Thanks trump break americans banks sweet.i guess we got plenty of money..

So he is retaliating on the Americans. Is anyone going to pay Starbucks rates that will go up 50 percent. Dumdass dumb Donald Trump

Trump is so dumb. The countries don’t care about his stupid tariffs as it will only hurt us Americans. Tariffs get passed on to us and not the country being tariffed ?

So Trump just made goods from Colombia more expensive FOR AMERICANS. That revenue Trump is raising is COMING FROM AMERICANS, not from foreign countries.

They rejected Trump’s deportation method for several reasons most important of which are undesirable individuals and smart spies. Countries usually do that.\nFor the Tariffs, we the consumers and producers will pay the tariffs not Columbia. That is, the Colombians bag Trump and Trump sticks it to Americans. What type of jock is this.

So the only people it's going to hurt is Americans, if that! Trump is a dumbass that doesn't know what he's doing.

This is why CNN is failing. Tell it like it is. The title of the video should be Trump hits Americans with additional tarrifs on Columbian imports.

Stand Tall Colombia, most Americans stand with you. Trump has no legal right to take many of these people out of America.

Trump is dangerous and a blathering idiot! Hope that realization sinks in sooner than later and Americans organize and protest. He's not only damaging the U.S. but threatening the world economy. This is very serious! Someone needs to do something!

Trump is not punishing Columbia, he is punishing the American people. We are the ones who pay for the costs of tariffs on products imported.

These Liberal Pinheads keep pushing their BS . Tariffs don't affect USA Consumers . Most Countries around the World have had Tariffs against the USA for Decades on certain Goods . It's a Protectionist Tool to keep USA Goods out of their Countries . The EU has had Tariffs against USA Cars for Decades now . Trump has railed against that for Years . USA Consumers will buy what they want or can Afford . If Countries that are Tariffed try to Raise the Prices of their Tariffed Goods to bet aroud the USA Tariffs , Trump could either reject their Goods with Sanctions , OR American Comsumers just won't buy them simple as that . The USA doesnt need alot of Products from other Countries Really . Those Countries need the USA Market More so they will comply with USA Demands eventually

Trump doesn’t care about prices and what the repercussions are of his actions on the American people.

Lol i pray to God every country stand up to this lunatic. American President is mashing up the world On people in Congress support u but in the name of Jesus God will make you bow down to is niece. Donald Trump believe that you're not bigger than God. So much eye ?water is on you, and prior you're a evil ?

I don’t understand why Colombia wouldn’t take back their own citizens who were in the US illegally. What if they wanted to deport an American who was in their country illegally… say overstayed a visa? American should just force them to keep that person? People complain that trump is somehow off his rocker but it violates diplomatic norms to refuse to take back your own people .

Trump says raise money? Bahahaha does he know how tarriffs work??? Ummm no. Americans pay more. They dont make Trump more money. Joke. Joke. Joke! Get ur head out ur a@@ north americans!

The American citizens are GOING TO PAY THOSE 25% TARIFFS, SO IDIOTIC TRUMP SUPPOTERS/VOTERS GET YOUR MONEY READY!!!!!!!!!!!! \nYOU DID THIS TO THE REST OF US!!!!

America will be lonely if Trump continues on this path. He will try to bully everyone. Maybe it is good to remember who is financing the American national debt.

Wait, why do the American people have to pay more for products just because Trump doesn’t get his way.

Trump is making things worse and we the American people going to pay the price every one that voted for him are idiots
