1:18Now PlayingPresident Trump threatened military action against Colombia and its “sick” leader after this weekend’s daring capture of dictator Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela — the acting president of which has since offered to work with the US in a stunning about-face.
“Colombia is very sick, too, run by a sick man, who likes making cocaine and selling it to the United States, and he’s not going to be doing it very long,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One about Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro.
Trump responded that “it sounds good to me” when he was asked directly if the US would carry out military operations against Venezuela’s neighbor.
