Colombia

[onawbtngr546]

There should really be international concern when the president is misspelling the name of a country and declaring it the 'truth' on his 'truth media' platform.


Columbia


But if anything, it goes to show you that these press releases are being written up by people who don't know how to spell the countries that they are talking about. It's like a bunch of toddlers are in the white house lol

Let me fix it for you.

Yes, Trump got what he wanted. If there is deviation from the stated plan, penalties including tariffs, have been announced and will begin the process of being implemented.

The desperation in this thread to try and make Trump look bad is 2nd to none.

You didn't fix it at all, but thanks for trying. It's still a no.

If he had gotten what he wanted the plane would never have been turned away to begin with. That egg remains on his face. Just like the Mexican egg he got on Friday but is trying to distract you from with this little show of force.

And you're swallowing it whole. Like the massive cost differential of the show of force multiplier for his photo op. DOGE needs to look into that now that Petro helped shine a light on it

If the plane hadn’t been turned away none of the escalation happens. There’s no talk of Colombia yesterday.

Because the plane was turned away, deterrents were identified by Trump and are in a standby mode in the event Colombia deviates from said plan.

Keep spinning though.

If Colombia wasn’t scared why didn’t they call Trump’s bluff and see if the deterrents were implemented?

Colombia folded in record time.

Can Colombia decide to play again? Sure, but the stick is coming and they know this.

Both sides actually began implementation. Luckily, Petro was an adult and scorched earth wasn't needed.

You mistake prudence with fear. He made his point and gave almost nothing away. Forced Trump to show his hand.

Remember that. Trump's stick is higher prices for all of us and you're loving it.

Ah, I missed these little chats with you.

The only thing that was began being implemented were a couple posts on X.

What you call prudence, I call backing down. Colombia conformed to what Trump wanted.

I also enjoy you continuing to think I’m a former poster. It’s sweet. We can add that to the list of things that you’re wrong about.

[HDGristle]

Then what was Rubio doing canceling diplomatic visas, shutting down consular services in Bogota except for Americans? Why are enhanced customs and inspection protocols in effect right now?

Seems like some implementation began and not just some tweets. That's the reality. Obfuscate as needed, but both sides began making moves.

So if a couple of passengers on a regular commercial flight to Bogota are deportees, it counts as a "deportation flight"?

Looks more efficient to fly 'em down in batches on C-130 Hercules cargo planes. Better yet, use our C-17 Globemasters, they can carry up to 336 people. (During Biden's shameful Afghan withdrawal, one C-17 was packed with 640 evacuees.)

They charter whole planes, Lusty. Yesterday's bullshit was over less than 200 migrants.

Petro saved your bacon, gave his people back some dignity and saved you some money.

Colombia is sending two government planes to pick up migrants who were originally scheduled to go on military flights, according to a Trump administration official and a Colombian official.

It comes after a major clash between the United States and Colombia over a pair of military flights carrying migrants that were abruptly rejected over the weekend — bringing the countries on the brink of a trade war.

They won't be sending out 2 more military flights for 80ish people each. You do know how much that costs, right?
