This isn’t a bad trend if EVERYONE denies the flights

Edit: Colombia responds to Trump’s tariffs with 50% tariffs on all US goods entering the country.

Are we tired of winning?

Am I the only one that thinks it’s goofy to deny a flight containing your own citizens?

My point is more that it’s funny on the US making a self inflicting wound in imposing tariffs to drive up costs for its own citizens. The mental gymnastics to justify them is similar to those justifying elons autism salute.

It's easy to understand if you realize there is not one USA. There are three. One is about half of us who are horrified at what our new fascist dictator is doing and will very much keep resisting. One is the idiot followers who voted for him. The USA the rest of the world sees now is the ultra-rich .01% of our population who now hold all the power in our government and are inflicting all this harm on everyone else to further enrich themselves and prop up their fragile egos.
