Magas crowed they’d get their coffee from Italy after Trump threatened a trade war with Colombia and it was an epic self-own visible from space

The sabre-rattling got Magas super-excited as you might imagine, even though the prospect of tariffs would hit them hard in the pocket, as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez highlighted on Twitter.

Here is yet another MAGA imbecile who thinks Italian coffee is grown in Italy. These people would be seriously challenged in a debate with a papaya. The papaya would win, and then they would declare that papayas hate America and ban them. pic.twitter.com/GSoPKC31C1

The top country for coffee imports to the U.S. is **Colombia**, followed closely by Brazil. In 2023, the U.S. imported approximately 1.55 billion dollars’ worth of coffee from Colombia and over 1.5 billion dollars from Brazil. pic.twitter.com/Xda1PY56U3
