Colombia’s President Petro Says that If Trump Won’t Change, the Solution Is to ‘Get Rid of Trump’

reporter (in Spanish): “Thank you very much, Mr. President, for this extensive live conversation. I leave with a concern — “
PETRO (in Spanish): “Obviously. But the situation is concerning. But in what life does one not have concerns?”
reporter (in Spanish): “I hope you find wisdom and pragmatism to get out of this.”
PETRO (in Spanish): “We’ll see. I’ve got it. The problem is that I doubt that is on Trump’s mind. But I trust that the democratic reserve of North American institutions, which do not yet exist in Colombia, are able to put science and truth above slander and arrogance and greed.”
reporter (in Spanish): “Your mission is not to change Trump.”
PETRO (in Spanish): “No.”
reporter (in Spanish): “Your mission is to seek the best possible negotiation for the millions of Colombians who depend on those jobs and that economy.”
PETRO: “Humanity has a first off-ramp, and it is to change Trump. In various ways. The easiest way may be through Trump himself — the easiest. If not, get rid of Trump.”
