Trump to Hold Off on 25% Colombia Tariffs, Reaches Deal on Migrants

US President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs on Colombia before abruptly pulling the threat after reaching a deal on the return of deported migrants, a move that rattled global markets in the space of several hours.

Excerpt from the Columbian dust up:

Trump’s action upended decades of warm relations between the US and Colombia. Ties between Trump and Petro had been widely expected to be strained due to their divergent political views, though the deterioration was swifter and more damaging than almost anyone anticipated.

What divergent political views? You mean the US has now decided not to be a sucker anymore and the SUCKEES are suddenly disgruntled by this?

The president of Colombia is what? Concerned about the treatment of migrants? WTF? So he decided Not to accept his own countrymen as a demonstration of his dismay?

Far too long have the nations presumed on American gullibility. What's to negotiate?
These are your citizens..... Want to do something for them? Help them make a life in the country that they were born in.

The entire continent of South America is a hot bed of tyrannical Leftism and drug cartels, aside from maybe Argentina.

Therefore, being at odds with a Continent that sees its populace risk their very lives to escape it all by coming to the US, is probably a good thing.
