President Donald Trump, speaking on Air Force One on October 20th, 2025, around 1:02 AM UTC, sharply criticized Colombia's president, calling him "a lunatic" and "an illegal drug leader," and asserted that Colombia is "out of control" due to its cocaine production. He also commented on Argentina's economic struggles, stating the country is "fighting hard to survive" and "dying." Addressing the "No Kings" protests, Trump dismissed them as "very small" and "very ineffective." Trump's remarks on Colombia came in response to a question about the Colombian president's claim that the U.S. killed an innocent fisherman, which Trump countered by stating the U.S. only shot down a submarine used for drug trafficking. He further equated California's actions in giving money to illegal immigrants with Colombia's issues. "Between California and Colombia, there's not that much difference," Trump stated, according to a tweet from @RapidResponse47. In comments directed at Jay Jones, a candidate for Attorney General, Trump called him "a third-rate intellect" and "the animal that wanted to kill somebody, who should not be allowed to be running for that office." Trump added that Jones "can join the long list of attorney generals that have been suing and losing." He also addressed the "No Kings" gatherings, stating, "I'm not a king. I work my ass off to make our country great — that's all it is. I'm not a king at all," according to @RapidResponse47. Regarding international relations, Trump reiterated his demands for China to resume soybean purchases and stop fentanyl production. He also stated that Democrats want to "destroy all health care" to fund illegal immigrants, and that "We're not going to destroy our health care for the Democrats." Separately, Alabama Senator Katie Britt was seen attending the Crimson Tide game against Tennessee. In domestic matters, a tweet from @BronGotGame indicated that the US government was responding on Sunday afternoon to what they described as violent threats against law enforcement from an individual on X, stating, "WE HAVE THE RECEIPTS. This young man posted violent threats of murder against our law enforcement." The tweet asserted, "Violence against our agents and officers MUST STOP." In international relations, President Trump previously authorized special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to negotiate directly with Hamas. He had also threatened to cut off all U.S. aid to Colombia. The U.S. had previously ceased aid payments to Colombia due to its drug production. Furthermore, the FBI is investigating a suspicious hunting stand discovered near President Trump's Air Force One landing zone at Palm Beach International Airport. A separate report in The Wall Street Journal discussed Argentina's economic challenges. In a separate development, live munitions from a military demonstration at Camp Pendleton on October 19th, 2025, struck a California Highway Patrol vehicle. The California Governor's office stated on X, "Without a doubt an apology is owed — to not just Californians, but all Americans."
