Again, if all it takes to throw Colombia into China's camp is one incident, then they were already 99% of the way there.

Not really. "China's lap" isn't a binary condition. A single egregious incident can poison diplomatic relations massively, and cause significant changes in policy. So we should not be shocked to see Colombia move further, faster, and more aggressively than they might have absent Trump's aggressive threat. Even if they were already cordial with China, this will make them really focus on improving that relationship. And all the other countries of the region as well.

BTW - one minor irony? Colombia is one of the few countries on earth that we had a positive balance of trade with. One of the few nations in the world that had opened up their economy to us more than we brought in from them.
