AOC scattered over the announcement of Colombian customs duties and coffee prices
MP Alexandria father-Cortez, Dn.y., gave her opinion President Donald Trump A constant quarrel around Customs with Colombian President Gustav Peter – but not every social media user obeyed her comments.
The quarrel between Trump and Petra began when the Colombian leader refused to accept Two deportation flights over the weekend, which made Trump to start retaliation measures. World leaders threatened to raise customs duties to import products by 25% to 50%, and Trump ordered the ban on travel and abolishing visas for all Colombian government officials.
“I just have been informed Two return flights From the United States, with a large number of illegal criminals, it was not allowed to land in Colombia, “Trump wrote on Truth Social.” This command was given by Colombian socialist president Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular among his people. “
“Peter’s denial of these flights threatened the national security and public security of the United States, so I ordered my administration to immediately take the following emergency and decisive retaliation measures.”
In the announcement X on Sunday, the father-cortez insisted that US consumers are the only side that pays tariffs.
“In order to ‘punish’ Colombia, Trump is about to get every American to pay even more for coffee,” said New York Congress in the announcement. “Remember: We pay tariffs, not Colombia.”
“Trump is aimed at making inflation by worse for the working class of Americans, not better,” she added. “Full pockets for yourself and a billionaire class.”
Petro seems to be a fan of AOC’s post, he re-published it on his X account.
Although the tariffs can inflate prices, an importer, which is a company or entity that brings goods to the US, it will pay the real customs customs customs and protection of borders (CBP).
But overblown prices are not guaranteed – sometimes tariffs can reduce the world’s price price because suppliers are rushing to retain access to the large US market. It is possible that coffee suppliers in different countries, such as Vietnam and Brazil, would reduce or retain their prices.
Father-Cortez’s tweet collected more than 47,000 likes from supporters by 8pm, but came across a contempt by Trump’s supporters and advocates of Tariff.
“The world record. 35 minutes and Tweet has already grown as hot milk,” Catturd wrote on a social medium, referring to Petrov’s immediate offer for the transportation of Colombian migrants to his presidential aircraft.
“Who wants to tell her that there are other countries that export coffee, not just Columbia,” Bill Essayli wrote at the California State Assembly.
Conservative commentator John Cardillo repeated Essay’s opinion, suggesting that the South American state “should receive its illegal strangers back.”
“Many other nations grow coffee grains,” Cardillo wrote on X. “We can buy coffee from them.”
Activist Adam Lowisz responded to the father-cortez, insisting that the democratic politician “did not understand how customs work”.
“Coffee from Colombia will go up, so we will buy coffee from suppliers from other countries who receive their illegals back,” wrote the conservative X user. “Companies will hesitate to invest further in Colombia if they continue to be bad players.”
