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.
aww poor bubba dumpy doesn’t like being called out for his tyranny. He actually expected Colombia to condone his attack on fishing vessels??
Drugs won the war on drugs. The only ones who don’t want to admit it are US politicians.
That’s because they’re on drugs.
I’m curious what year he thinks it is, and whether he believes that Pablo Escobar is still alive
I would love to see the press simply ask him what year it is…
Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.
Your mom.
I wonder if the downvoter realizes that this was an actual answer that the white house gave a reporter recently.
Dunno. Following up on this, your mom.
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.
It seems that 2023 is the most recent year with open data
However, I found this on cocaine field erradication: Cocaine field erradication is at a low point, going from 130.1 thousand ha to 9.4 k ha.
Given that guerrillas and narcotrafic has only grown bigger in the last few years, I’m very confident the situation has only got worse since 2023, sadly.
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?
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…
Why is this censored?
Maybe it’s about redaction of the files
Honestly, I just stopped trying to find rhyme or reason to stuff like that.
I think people’s brains have been so fried by information, they just do these things without thinking out of instinct or habit. There is no sense to be had.
Right but the person posting it (often) should be able to answer in this case.
It has something to do with “king” and “aged” but it still looks super awkward.
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.
I’m 99% certain he was coked up during the Hillary debate. Also, he was around during NYC’s coke craze of the70s/80s, so… https://libbysuethewriter.medium.com/trumps-coke-use-in-the-1980s-was-legendary-ae33e2b49c80
He prefers his stimulants in prescription form.
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.
He did snort it on the set of The Apprentice!
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
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.
So in the middle of planning his invasion of Venezuela, he noticed Colombia is right next door?
Fuck Trump
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.”
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.
