  2. At this rate there won’t any country left for this imbecile to sanction.

  4. He’ll tariff the world at this point and hope it gives him some oil.

  5. In a few weeks Trump will have imposed sanctions on pretty much everywhere. How’s that gonna work?

  8. It would be easier for him to say who isn’t getting tariffs at this point.

  10. This guy is a one trick pony. Tariff is the only thing he can come up with.

  11. By the time this maximum moron is done most of South America will ignore the US and have stronger trading relations with China.

    But don’t worry, Trump is hovering around his 80s… so he won’t have too long to worry about the repercussions of his antogonistic administration shedding America’s soft power at record pace.

    I am fairly certain this guy will go down as the worst president ever in American history… and will be remembered and studied for many decades to come on account of it.

    In the meanwhile, the daily damage continues. Has it been a week yet?

  13. Tariffs truly are the only thing he knows about the government. Not that he knows what they do he just knows the word.

  14. Trump treats entire countries like kids who didn’t come to his birthday party

  15. It’s almost like he didn’t plan this mass deportation thing out very well.

  17. Russia really is just pulling off one of the greatest cold war success stories in history with this dumbass.

  18. Yeah, yeah, coffee expensive, fine. Meanwhile: Where are the people now who were being deported? How are they being treated? And did those planes just end up returning, in which case how much money did the Trump administration just waste?

  19. He behaves like a five-year old. He discovered a new word and he won’t stop using it, even if he doesn’t know what it means.

  20. I was wondering, wouldn’t it be best for the receiving country to accept their people instead of chancing what will happen to them back in the US?

  21. As soon as I saw news they got turned away, I knew 100% few hours later I would see this xD.

    Tbf country not accepting it’s citizens back just showcases what a fucking mistake it was to have extremely relaxed refugee policy.

  22. lol all that does is raise colombian coffee prices for Americans. Colombian coffee or as Trump would call it covfefe has no substitute other than some other coffee. Trump seems to think just because americans purchase something they have some crazy power over their producers. Americans are in for rude awakening

  24. Most transactional president we’ve had. I’m already exhausted seeing him in the feed.

  25. So who’s gonna tell Trump that there is no law that forces companies to sell stuff in the US?

  26. I swear, if anyone doesn’t take in the people I don’t want, Americans are gonna pay!

  27. *You hurt my ego, I’m going to harm the people of my nation, that’ll show ya!*

  28. So the eggs are gonna go up in price already, now the coffee. The war on breakfast has begun. Where is Walt Jr. to protest?

  29. They get tariffs, you get tariffs, everyone gets tariffs!

  30. These tariff threats are starting to sound like the boy who cried wolf. It’s just becoming a catch-all threat to foreign nations to try to bully them into doing what he wants. At this point countries just need to call his bluff because he can’t throw tariffs at literally every country because it would fuck over lower and middle class Americans, which means the Republican party loses big in two and four years. If Trump wants to play hard ball, countries need to call his bluff because the end result means Americans get fucked.

  31. What happens to the people stranded on these planes when neither country wants them? Do they just go back? Prison?

  32. You cannot ship random persons to random countries and expect those countries to take them in. wtf is he trying to do? He cannot bully the world. He is an embarrassment.

  34. So we’re at the point now that if trump doesn’t get his way, the American people get taxed for it…LOL. Lord please wake me up.

  35. American citizens are about to find out what being poor poor is.

  36. At this rate this motherfucker will have sanction and tariffs on the entire world. Next stop, ‘murica.

  38. We’re so back, boys and girls. Daily unhinged POTUS news. Veggie Joe can’t compete..

  40. “Petro said Colombia would welcome home deported migrants on civilian planes, saying they should be treated with dignity and respect.”

    Seems fair.

  42. The Americans are fools. All that is going to happen is the rest of the world band together while the US becomes a nation to the likes of Russia or North Korea. Keep isolating yourselves and see how that works out for you. There is no forgiveness for electing Trump a 2nd time.

  43. This is a five minute story:

    Colombian President refuses military flights.

    Trump threatens sanctions.

    Colombian President says he will send his plane to pick them up in style.

    Up next is Trump: They’re going home and Colombia will pay for it.

    This is a grandstanding story all around.

  44. Hey why did you vote for Trump?

    Tariffs

    Ok so what do you like about his stance on Tariffs?

    Tariffs

    Hmmm. What would you do to a country that is actively murdering women and children based on their ethnic background?

    Tariffs

    I see. Ok how about this. Russia launches an ICBM at DC. What would be an appropriate response from USA?

    Tariffs

    Ok. You want things to become cheaper in America but raising the import tax makes all things 50% – 200% more expensive for Americans. What would your answer be?

    Tariffs

    That’s it I’m done. America is done.

  46. Well, once trump’s done putting tariffs on the world, Americans aren’t going to need Ozempic anymore.
