The obverse side of the marxist coin

They will prevent money and talent from leaving, and they will not allow back the criminals they export.

39 minutes, to be precise.

UPDATE:

Colombia agreed to pick up these illegals but is NOT yet agreeing to future deportation flights. All sanctions are moving ahead until they relent.

Don’t mess with America.

There is a little rope-a-dope going on here, but I am confident that Columbia will come around completely.

As important is the fact that other countries will realize DJT is not bluffing and he has a better hand. Making an example of a weaker enemy is a strategy of strength.

Going forward every nation should be required to send planes to pick up their citizens - and pay for all incidentals.

If they don’t have the necessary planes the U.S. should return the offenders home on charter flights and send the parent country the bill.

Fair is fair.

“Looks like Colombia saw reason quickly.”

If I didn't know better I would say Presidents Trump and Petro arranged to perform a dramatic skit on the world stage to make President Trump look good.

Petro looked pretty good for the first 45 minutes; then lasting ignominy.

Petro must be less developmental than Kamala or Joe Scarbrough. I sit here shaking my head.

Maybe it’s folkways, cultural differences, translation problems, or something else — but he just sounds bat-crap crazy.

Petro may have responded quickly, but he’s still a slow learner, as are many of the President’s opponents. Sooner or later they’ll get it through their thick skulls that Trump means what he says. He can’t make it any more simple than that.

It is constantly amazing how the most corrupt leaders take the moral high ground as if they never did anything wrong in their entire lives.

I’m not too sure what sending his own plane accomplishes other than sending the purely symbolic message that he prevented American planes from landing in his country. I hope he realizes this is just the first of many flights.
