\"President<\/p>\n

\n As we\u2019ve reported<\/a>, US President Donald Trump spoke to reporters on Air Force One yesterday while travelling back from Florida to the White House.\n <\/p>\n

\n He implied military action could come to Colombia, following the US strike on Venezuela and capture of President Maduro and said \u201cMexico has to get their act together,\u201d appearing emboldened after the large-scale strike against Venezuela and capture of its leader.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cColombia is very sick too, run by a sick man who likes making cocaine and selling it to the United States, and he\u2019s not going to be doing it very long,\u201d Trump said.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe are in the business of having countries around us that are viable and successful and where the oil is allowed to freely come out,\u201d Trump said, adding, \u201cIt gets the prices down. That\u2019s good for our country.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n When pressed by a reporter whether those comments meant there could be an \u201coperation\u201d in Colombia in the future, Trump responded, \u201cSounds good to me.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n He also turned his attention to the US\u2019 southern neighbor, saying, \u201cMexico has to get their act together, because they\u2019re pouring through Mexico, and we\u2019re going to have to do something,\u201d referring to drugs.\n <\/p>\n

\n Trump said he repeatedly offered the assistance of US troops to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, but that \u201cshe\u2019s a little afraid.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Meanwhile, he repeated remarks he made on Saturday<\/a> in which he said Cuba would fall on its own.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cI think it\u2019s just going to fall. I don\u2019t think we need any action,\u201d he said Sunday.\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As we\u2019ve reported, US President Donald Trump spoke to reporters on Air Force One yesterday while travelling back…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":493875,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5122],"tags":[5229,77144,155226,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-493874","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-hnk","10":"tag-intl","11":"tag-new-york","12":"tag-new-york-city","13":"tag-newyork","14":"tag-newyorkcity","15":"tag-ny","16":"tag-nyc","17":"tag-united-states","18":"tag-united-states-of-america","19":"tag-unitedstates","20":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","21":"tag-us","22":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115842047701423106","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493874","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=493874"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493874\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/493875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=493874"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=493874"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=493874"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
