How can he just capitulate like this?!
I mean… he didn’t ban the flights in the first place. He just declared he would not accept his countrymen being treated poorly on return. I think the objection was packing them all in military planes instead of normal commercial flights your average person travels. It had more to do with mistreatment of their citizens in the process of repatriation, which is valid.
The citizens will still be mistreated. Why are you just blindly trusting Trump here?
Huh? What are you talking about? That’s not a statement trusting Trump. The headline implies the flights were rejected. They weren’t. Drink more coffee dude. It’s Trump’s propaganda that they were rejected.
The flights were originally rejected. He even put out a statement on it. Then he backtracked.
Tbf for nations like Colombia, who have a very small GDP, it would be almost impossible to survive the orange asshole’s bullying.
Let’s see what’ll happen if/when he attacks a nation who’s in the same league as America.
#FuckTrump
I disagree. In fact, I think a lot of nations would start trading with Colombia if it defied the U.S. under Trump. But I guess we’ll never know now.
I think it will be interesting to see what China does as this bullying continues. They’re already facing tariffs, so they don’t have much to lose by stepping in and picking up new trade partners as Trump pisses everyone off. Might hurt for awhile, but it was always going to. Trump could prove to be the best thing for China’s economy & global influence in the long run.
Bullshit, no capitulation. Colombian president refused to accept deportees by military transport on humane grounds. Both threatened tariffs, Trump ‘capitulated’ and agreed to put them back on commercial flights, which is how it always has been - Colombia accepting deportees. Don’t buy into this myth the media is creating.
That’s where Trump will send you regardless of country of origin.
