faces no restrictions at all if they want to leave the country - they're free to go anywhere that they can get into. It's not Columbia's job to prevent people from leaving. - albaby

Very true. They are sovereign and have the right to run their county as they think best.

Also the word "exporting" is misused by Trump but that doesn't negate the fact we MAGAs, not sure about the libs, but the MAGA's anyway expect cooperation on the USA deporting their criminal citizens back to their country.

It is also equally true that is not the USA's job to provide them tariff free access to the US economy. Also it is not the USA's job to write them a $400M plus aid check year after year.

Trump's and the MAGA movement's "America First" policy requires that any deal provides a benefit to the USA and ideally a mutual benefit to both parties. Trump wants them to accept deportation flights and cooperate in attempts to reduce or eliminate the flow in the first place. Even if they cannot keep them all in their own prisons they can cooperate in others ways such as providing intelligence. What are the Colombian's offering?

Trump is very effective at finding ways to get the other party to seriously consider the benefits of cooperation.
