Trump called Colombia’s president an “illegal drug leader” on Sunday and pledged to end U.S. aid to the South American country, following the leader’s criticism of U.S. strikes on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean.
Mr. Trump accused Colombian President Gustavo Petro in a post on Truth Social of “encouraging the massive production of drugs, in big and small fields.”
Hours earlier, Petro accused the U.S. in a series of X posts of hitting a fishing vessel in a strike it carried out last month, not a boat carrying drugs as it had claimed at the time. The Colombian leader said a fisherman had been killed in the attack, saying that in doing so the U.S. had “invaded national territory.” He made a similar allegation earlier this month, claiming another boat that was struck by the U.S. military carried Colombian citizens — which the U.S. denied.
Drugs won the war on drugs. The only ones who don’t want to admit it are US politicians.

So in the middle of planning his invasion of Venezuela, he noticed Colombia is right next door?
With the majority of drugs coming from China and often distributed through Mexico, trying to pin all this drug dealing on South America seems like a dumb move. I guess that is all they got because the real reason of regime change (aka toppling more countries) is not very palatable.
He knows his base is the same people he did cocaine with in the 80’s. They all remember Columbia being involved with cocaine trafficking, and are too old and batshit crazy to realize that’s no longer true
Columbia still produces the majority of the world’s cocaine. It’s just that China makes a lot of fentanyl.
Where does he think his cocaine comes from?
*his son’s cocaine. As much as I hate Trump, I think he stays fairly clean… McDonald’s is his crutch.
There’s video of his kid doing a bump, rubbing it on his gums, in fucking public, never really made the news.
I know most people haven’t done cocaine, but I did my share 25 years ago. That clip could not be more damning.
He’s a germaphobe. He likes his lab produced Adderall instead of cocaine from whenever.
I’m sure any given POTUS could get laboratory grade cola if he wanted. For Trump, cocaine is a “bad drug”, Adderall is a “good drug”.
That’s a good point. Also, his war with Latin America would be fucking up his supply
Knowing how US operates, when someone is labeled a criminal/terrorist/bad, this means they don’t want to comply with US (exploitative) demands.
hmm I wonder why the cuban revolution occurred…
I’m curious what year he thinks it is, and whether he believes that Pablo Escobar is still alive
To be fair, Colombia is still the biggest coca producer in the world, by a huuuge margin.
Do you have recent data? I could only find like up to 2023.
I would love to see the press simply ask him what year it is…
Your mom.
He didn’t finish Narcos, too many subtitles
Who would stop him? Nobody stops Putin. Why would anyone stop Trump? Who would even dare to try?
Fuck Trump

What about medium fields?
Those are mostly alright, very bribable, and will take our undesirables for labor or whatever-the-fuck. The big ones, they want to be the big kahuna. The little ones, you can’t trust; they’ll turn on ya for short money.
…this started as a joke of a shitpost and ended feeling a little too plausible to serve that purpose, so, uh, hmm
I want to be a drug leader.
