Everybody has some sort Internet connection. They need to look up what Tariffs are. When Trump was campaigning he said he was going to put a 25% tariff in China and all of his supporters cheered and clapped ! I’m sitting here going don’t they know that that increase cost is going to be pushed down to the consumer?!?!! It’s the everyday American who is going to end up paying that 20% 25% increased in cost!!! it’s going to affect our living standards and not in a good way! Not the wealthy people in this country who Trump says he’s going to protect because they’re his friends! I don’t get it! Trump is sitting here, threatening to put tariffs on all the countries that’s not doing what he wants them to do! And people cheer! Unless you’re the wealthy, you’re gonna be screwed with the cost-of-living that’s gonna be reflected in those tariffs!!

I think someone put a hit on my cousin a royal highlander scottish marine ap thornhill is his name your done when i get finished since 2010 I believe trying to get close even before then your done

I hate to tell Columbia, but once Trump is done with deporting people to Columbia that is when they will get everything Trump suspended. In the end once he is done with columbia he will put tarrifs on them and ban flights from Columbia.\n\nPeople need a damn backbone he is using countries and its wrong. If you have people from mexico, they cannot make it to Columbia.

You can gather tens of thousands of people to illegally invade a country but you’re telling me these same folks can’t put their heads together to build themselves a town. Or to gather in front of their politicians house and clean out their corruption in their country. Or to formulate a deal with some other country’s so they can get some funding to startup opportunities in their own communities. There’s enormous value in the fact that you can have this many people gather in person the problem is nobody has the brains or intelligence to be a good leader so that the human effort isn’t wasted. Even if they were to get in the problems their facing will not be solved. The problem is that that many people are putting their heads together and the best idea they all can come up with is to invade a country risking life and limb, abduction, and SA at the hands of smugglers and cartels is crazy.

This is how potato head biden and Cumala the Vag put our border patrol agents Lifes at risk to getting injured and Killed! Our border patrol officers should have had the right to protect their lives and our country from these Violent ILLEGAL INVADERS!

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

I can't believe that so many young children can be seen here! That's such a dangerous situation for parents to put them in! Apply for citizenship the right way so you can bring your family safely! Then, when your family is here with proper documentation, you'll be able to raise them in security without fear of deportation. I hate to see children going through this. They're at the mercy of their parents' judgement & things could be so much better for them if they weren't dragged through traumatic situations like this, just so their parents can cut corners. Why in the world can't you apply for citizenship the proper way? If your criminal record is the reason that you can't, well that's on you. If there are records of you pulling crap like this, you'll probably never be able to get here the proper way. Instead of choosing to be an actual American citizen, you'd rather choose to live your life as a fugitive & force your kids to live that way too? Give your family a real chance here by following the proper process to become citizens. You'll get a very different reception here.

After he finished with legal migration is coming After those black people living in the US,for those that has put the vote in trump hand get ready that's is the price you will have to pay when you don't believe that you black thinking you have trun withe ????????????

Fun fact: Columbia is where we get a major chunk of our coffee from, so now our coffee, our fuel for working Americans will get more expensive if this is a prolonged tariff! We're just hurting ourselves with these outrageous tariffs because all of these countries (even Columbia) can just sell the supply of whatever the US is putting a tariff on to other countries like in Europe or Asia, or could just put retaliatory tariffs on us, leading to a possible trade war over FUCKING COFFEE. Our 2 party political system sucks harder than the jet engines of those planes that got denied.

?? i don't know who's the bigger idiot?! #47 who seemingly believes the tariffs are bad for the countries he's putting them on or the idiots who applaud his actions seemingly unaware that they get to foot the bill! Dumb arses!

Don't forget to mention the 50 % tariff Columbia put on the USA .Get ready for outrageous coffee prices

Agree they should not come in illegally but legal or not let's just put the facts out there mexicans do not get free housing or food stamps. The Cubans, porta Ricans, and Venezuela people get those benefits it guess what the US gave the visa green cards so we should be telling our government to stop given visas out like candy. Also remember there is lots of nationality they are all not all Mexicans.

This is a much easier fix than what’s being portrayed. We need to make the ability to become a temporary citizen easier than it is. Background checks, usable skills, and political or criminal affiliation. If it’s not possible to access, so is your entry. I support my president and my nation completely and yet I still understand that the deplorable conditions of these broken nations is something I too would want to escape from. By making it so impossible to legally enter, we’re funding the criminals who will do so illegally. \n And can we talk openly about the real issue as well? It’s time for the U.S to clean house too. Government officials taking bribes from the Cartels and making it harder for us to put safety measures in place. We have to stop being in business with these criminal elements. I get it, the money’s being used to fund our military initiatives that tax dollars can’t, like in the 80’s with Contra, but how many U.S lives have to be lost to secure a foreign policy???

What are the last four years it was like the government putting tariffs on his 50% up on groceries 76% up on rent yeah we need the money to take all our tax money and give it away and bring these Creeps in that don't put anything into our institution get the F out and you agree with the ones keeping them you get the F out you hate our country

Americans will be going on a forced diet , food /groceries prices about to skyrocket . Between the large % of field workers afraid of I.C.E. so not going to work ,produce is rotting , so shortages will be huge and then tariffs starting Feb 1st . Thanx MAGA for putting this dangerous buffoon and dictator wannabe in The Oval Office . Your chosen ignorance affects ALL Americans who now must pay the consequences of your hatred and stupidity . Stop chanting “ We won Libs, get over it .”

PUT SIGNS UP TELLING THE CRIMINAL ILLEGAL INVADERS TO TURN AROUND AND GET THEIR ASS BACK TO THEIR HOME THIS IS OUR HOME!!!

This country PURPOSELY sent their garbage here and the dumb ass Democrats signed up to let them. Thank you God for putting Trump back in office. GET THEM OUT!\nI was attacked by a “migrant” in 2006 while training for a marathon in Chicago. I was left for dead. I have zero empathy for these people that come here illegally- and frankly are sent by their own countries that don’t want them. Get out. I’ve been an independent for years but I am firmly camp Trump now. Call me a cultist if you want IDGAF. ❤❤❤

Well, this is good. Why the hell aren’t these countries taking back their own people because they know that those individuals are no good that’s why they sent them to us in the first place so this is a good thing. That being said he needs to ease back on with these other two countries I mean really we trade with them a lot talk about getting expensive mercy. 3:41 why does CNN have all these specialist and analyst on? They are always totally wrong and bias and one sided I mean come on they put the story out knowing that Columbia was gonna fold immediately so all this talk is for nothing just making people fearful of outcomes that have already been decided so they need to get off gas and shut the hell up I don’t know why you click on CNN they have not been telling the truth for years

U gotta love the fake news still putting Biden as the number one hero and everything meanwhile that’s a bunch of bull crap gotta love it. How about for the next four years go fly a kite somewhere and let the country be and get back to what it’s been doing for the last hundreds of years before our fathers have fought for.

Hey cnn! Hows about finding out why trump turned on his buddy putin? Could ut be that after putin helped put him back in office like all those maga folks trump is doing the same.to all the maga's and bending thrm over with out lube! Just like trumps doing eith all of us! And news outfits like you and abc, nbc and the rest dose! Like gun violince! Aka school shootimg quit giving these sick folks thier 15 minutes of fame! Dont say the names and i bet they well quit vause they wont get the rushbfrom becoming famous! Hmmm!

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?

Looks like Bricks getting a new member. Even Cuba n Mexico joining them. Sanctions are useless. Like they all had a script n were waiting for a orange make in a drag wig make up n diaper perfect moron, to be put in power to dump dollar n jump ship.

All the energy that is going to deporting people. Hopefully someone will do the cost-benefit. Seems like a major waste of time. Imagine if the Border Bill had been passed in 2024 and by now we could have had this all under organized control without all of this spending so much money, time and effort in rounding people up and deporting them. Add to all of that the cost of tariffs that Trump is putting on Columbia and I expect others in the coming weeks and months. What a waste. Trump also not getting this whole thing organized which is the major direction we have to go in the final analysis.

Awww poor little baby didn’t get his way!!! Boo hoo hoo! The more tariffs he puts on other countries the more it costs you and I..I’ve already quit buying stuff that I feel supports the rich!!!

I like Trump he is putting the socialist Pretro in his Place. Why this guy is not letting Colombians to be deported to Colombia. Colombia should not get visas to the USA and all economical sanctions. Go Trump the Latinos in the USA support you 100%.

He should put tariffs on the drugs that get smuggled instead of legal goods ?

Budin said 15 times he doesn't have the POWER to shut down the border and DEPORT illegals. Go look at that fact !!! I will not PARDON CRACK SMOKING HUNTER ! He did !! Lie after lie put your mask on Get Fired if not vaccinated remember thst shit

And so, he is just pretty much making Colombian coffee expensive for no reason at all in response to Colombia rejecting his US military flights full of immigrants. Like......what the hell, dude? What. The. Hell? Well, uhhhh......of course it's not gonna Colombia at all really. But uhhhh......\n\nIt will REALLY just only hurt the United States of America for the time being. Yep. He is hurting the very same country that he is supposed to properly govern right now, ladies and gentlemen. OK, now, he can just now even try applying economic pressure to Mexico and Canada to try and get what he personally wants. BUT in the end, it's gonna make their own products even expensive as well. So uhhhhhh, if I were Trump right now, I would just seriously put a complete stop to all of this AND start doing my job right for once.

No offense, since I don’t know if you guys drink coffee or not, but You do realize other countries export to the US. Have never heard of Guatemalan, Brazil, Peru, Marrocan, Ethiopia, Belgium, Costa Rican coffee? Arab countries etc. They all make great coffee. Coffee is not only from Colombia. There’s so various countries producing great coffee .\n\nThey all export coffee to the US. Unless you ONLY like Colombian coffee this shouldn’t be a problem. I’m sure this benefits other countries to expand. Each with distinct flavors and aromas. \n\nStarbucks imports coffee from over 30 different countries from Latin America, Africa, Middle East. \n\nIt’s like if Trump puts a 25% tariff on French wine. I love my French wine and it would suck. But I still love my Italian and Washington State wine.\n\nBananas like mention also come from other countries as well like Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras etc. \nBasically other countries exist that benefit from this. The only problem I could see is they can’t produce enough . Which I doubt. And I’m sure African countries or other countries can under cut prices if others try to inflate prices just to get market share in the US. \n\nAlthough, coffee prices are not only determined by supply and demand. Country of origin and brand also plays a role. Like I said it’s like wine. I love my cheap Washington State Merlots and my Italian Chianti, but people still buy over price California and French wine .

Americans really dont understand tariffs, Tariffs Hurt the country PUTTING THE TARIFFS ON, SANCTIONS hurts the country that they are PUT ON, i think americans get confused

CNN already spreading leftist propaganda. Columbia has already folded and offered to fly them back with the President’s plane. Amazing what a President gets done when he puts America first and is not a weakling like our last one.

If you get deported as an illegal immigrant, you should be able to take your children with you. What about us who came here legally and we paid to get our citizenship and went through so much processing to get here legally while others can just cross the borders illegally and get citizenship somehow. They were not screened if they have criminal records and they didn't go through a health inspection like we did. The law is law and it should always be implemented, no exceptions. I have met someone who was not a U.S. citizen but she gave birth on an airplane above the U.S. territory and her son became an automatic U.S. Citizen. I thought that was weird. The children should maintain the same citizenship as their parents so they will not be separated. Birthright citizenship has divided and dislocated families. This law meant that the U.S. government will take the baby away from the parents because they have no citizenship and put their children in the Foster Care Home Systems? That doesn't even make sense to separate a family, this law is a home wrecker. It needs to be abolished ASAP.

The irony here is that if roles were reversed and america was a crap country while venezuela and south america were great countries nd american citizens were trying to get into those countries, none of these ppl would say let americans in nd we would be either shot at by those countries govts or jailed and tortured nd eventually deported. Ive had enough of this nonsense. Main reason i voted for donald trump was to put an end to this bs. Sorry. Border closed!

Trump get the army down there put this stop.

That's because the Dems putting them up to this,so if someone gets killed now they can blame trump..smh

We gotta get the military out there on that fence. Line put some lead down, that'll back him up

Sorry if they didn't get the Nov. 5th memo,but we have had enough, we're not taking any more abuse, and no matter how many crying women they put on TV, ESTO CERRADO!

Huh?? Why isn't Mexico not made responsible for this riot? Mexico could have stopped anyone getting close to USA, why didn't the ughs get turned back. Not to enter Mexico. Duh..\nTrump make Mexico pay, put sanctions against Mexico. ?

Why do the racist people always get brave with Muslim women and not the men shows there scared of the consequences as that attitude would not be tolerated he would have got put in hospital long time.

Get them the hell out of. Please put electric fence on the road period . I’m sick & tired of this bs

Funny how I sat with a Canadian elderly person who looked me in the eye and told me how lazy Canadian youth are and crying that immigrants are getting their jobs when in reality it’s either they don’t have the actual qualification or do not want to work the job. As an employment coordinator, I have received so many Canadians under 35 years of age who want me to help them look for a job but then after all the effort I put in they just send a long message telling me they don’t think they are mentally ready or physically ready or if they are worthy or good enough hence the reason they just want to quit and not get a job anymore.

Pretty soon Donald Trump will not arrest them anymore they will put them to sleep. To teach them a lesson not to cross the border. It's going to get that bad.. ?

Governments making money from taking money from immigrants via their visa fees and school fees.\n\nGranted, these western countries need people who will take up the jobs their people won't do, etc, but their infrastructure and system is not designed to cope with the volume of people they are simply taking money from.\n\nNaturally, many of these immigrants will also put a strain on the welfare system. Where will the government get the money from?\n\nSomebody in the higher echelons is making a lot of money from the misery of others.

The american people voted for this! When a city or town gets an increase in population, the average american has to pay for this not only in higher taxes, but these folks aren't going to rich areas they go to lower income and middle class areas. Putting a strain on resources that everyday americans need.

I'm glad that atleast some of them want to do it legally, but we can't take everyone who wants to come here, certainly not before we get our crime under control, and take care of our own homeless population the best we can or atleast put a good plan in place, and not if coming here means you get free free free everything while we pay for ours and yours.

WE PUT TRUMP IN OFFICE TO GET THEM OUTNO MORE FREEBEES

There’s elementary school near my house and one of their student is using my address cause I keep receiving letters for the student. Every time I get letter I will go to school to tell them this kid’s parents are using my address to put their child in their school. 4th letters for almost two years, school hasn’t done anything ? must be illegal

America has made choices driven by selfish ideals that ignore the welfare (health and security) of the people. The welfare of the people is a government's first responsibility! By inspiring a 'get rich to survive' mentality America has spawned generations of children who put the $dollar above all else. Above love, family, parenting, faithfulness, and even truth. Fixing that seems impossible.

Well, there are good Indians and scammers Indian. Scammers in India are causing headaches for good Indians. That is the facts. For instance, recently some Indians took a huge loan in UAE and left for Canada with that money. That has put the UAE government in a position to make the visa process more difficult to find out if bad people are getting the visa or not. I would say, the Indian government should introduce a process to thoroughly investigate a person before they apply for a foreign visa, and it should be honest to see some improvement in Indian behavior in the foreign countries. If not, that number is just going to go down. It doesn’t matter how much you scream. Do that for the sake of good Indian people.
