It's a response to make them do it. And it worked. They caved.
Yeah, I just saw the news that Colombia gave in.
Trump is going all in. He's reverting to the 19th century way of strong arming other countries over petty things. He's reviving the old-school capitalist imperialism.
It never went away...
Nothing wrong with throwing your weight around in this situation.
