    Doesn't sound like anyone caved to me ... from the current headlines ...

    Trump got mad that another president wouldn't bow to him, so everyone gets to pay more for coffee and gas. Thats some small d**k energy, right there.

    “I am informed that you impose a 50% tariff on the fruits of our human labor to enter the United States, and I do the same,” Petro wrote in a long post on X aimed at Trump, before he announced the 25% tax on US goods.

    Petro responded dismissively to Trump’s announcement, writing on social media, “Trump, I don’t really like traveling to the US, it’s a bit boring.” He went on to criticize Trump’s policies and character, even suggesting the US president considers “me an inferior race and I’m not, nor is any Colombian.”

    I think whatever news source you used jumped the gun and is the true fake news. Consider your source

    It's just the beginning. Trump thinks the solution all America's foreign problems is for us to pay more for stuff. That's all he's got.

    Trump will waste more than that, just like he did his first time... He's going to waste YOUR money, too. Just sit back and enjoy what you voted for.

    Gustavo said this one hour ago. Your source is old

    Su bloqueo no me asusta; porque Colombia además de ser el país de la belleza, es el corazón del mundo. Se que ama la belleza como yo, no la irrespete y le brindará su dulzura.

    COLOMBIA A PARTiR DE HOY SE ABRE A TODO EL MUNDO, CON LOS BRAZOS ABIERTOS, SOMOS CONSTRUCTORES DE LIBERTAD, VIDA Y HUMANIDAD.

    Me informan que usted pone a nuestro fruto del trabajo humano 50% de arancel para entrar a EEUU, yo hago lo mismo.

    Que nuestra gente siembre maíz que se descubrió en Colombia y alimente al mundo

    He's basically giving the middle finger to Trump and is saying that Colombia is now open to the world for business
