I think a bare minimum expectation if you're going to quote someone to link where the quote originated. That guy failed to even do this.
I just googled only the quoted part and found this:
So it appears to be true but I think folks still need to question tweets if they aren't providing sources at least in all cases. Just my opinion.
Columbia exports more than coffee to the US. So this will have greater consequences for the US than just that.
The top four imports are:

Doesn't Jamaica produce coffee beans also ?Other beans other than Columbian.
Columbian beans are okay.
Ethiopian are superior for my tastes.
Costa Rica got some good beans.
Mexico is cool too, I think those prices will def rise.
If you're new to, probably wouldn't taste the difference between Colombian, Mexican and Costa Rican.
If these tariffs get us cheap Hawaiian beans on the mainland.

So his remedy when countries tell him to kick rocks is basically to tax the American people with tariffs....

Damn, he got what he wanted. This is Trumps style of negotiation. I don't care for it, but it might actualy get results. Watch, he is going to come back and say the great people of Colombia are working with him to take back their illegals.

Yeah. Haven't had any Blue Mountain.
Been gettin' tired of my usual spots 'cause they always have the same five beans from different regions of countries I mentioned above.
Haiti also has beans.
Problem is, if you can't get it through you local shop, you gotta do your research and get it shipped. Might as well buy in bulk.
I'm looking at Kona beans from Hawaii goin' for over $40 for 12oz. Might as well load up at those prices. I could get 32oz under $50 at the local spots.
You might not like Jamaican beans, but if you're paying shipping prices, you might as well get your money's worth and gift them out if it's not what you like.

Yes…. It completely ignores the global market and the fact China would love to come in and take America’s place in it.
we’ll be dumb and broke as Russia if no one checks this idiot.
China produces their own coffee beans so they don’t need Columbia

China could import Colombia’s, do a trade deal for EV’s and fukk America, or name some other item.
The former system of Globalization is based on America consuming. If America ain’t consuming China will.
