I’m an American (I’m embarrassed to say) but I am proud to say I completely oppose Trump & Musk’s plan to turn us into or over to Russia. They are in alliance with the corrupt project 2025 and Putin. They are traitors to America. Sadly the world must not trust them. They LIE. They are actively destroying the USA. Trump and Musk need to rule Mars. DEPORT BOTH OF THEM TO SPACE. I support Canada, Gaza, Greenland and Mexico. I WOULD DEPORT TRUMP AND MUSK IF I COULD. They are CRIMINALS and have no legitimacy in my America. Dirty Traitors.

?I'm an American but I stand with Canada ??. Don't allow your country to be bullied. Cut the electricity ,show Trump that you won't be bullied by a narcissistic wanna be dictator!!

Im honestly scared. I'm already struggling like a lot of Americans. I don't know what's gonna happen.

I'm American, Texan even. I've fought against Trump and this insanity since 2015. My wife is a trans woman who immigrated from the Philippines almost 20 years ago. I want my fellow Americans to wake up and remove Trump from more than this country but they are just too damned stupid apparently.

I'm so sorry that our dictator is doing this. Please know that most Americans do not support this or him.

Funny how none of these actions were being taken before Trump went crazy slapping charges on these countries. I’m not for the heavy handed view Trump seems to be taking, but I’ll NEVER, NEVER, EVER crap where I sleep. It’s shameful to think this country is filled with so many weak treasonous cowards. \n\nCanada took advantage of Biden just like Mexico did, so this “we’re innocent” stuff won’t play. A lot of your fellow Americans have died and the mainstream media has you believing we’ve not already been at war… wake up!

So much respect for him and the people of Canada right now. I’m so embarrassed of our American president.

I’m American and I stand with our allies!!!!

As an American I look forward to this trade war with Canada. I've never respected Trudeau as a leader and I don't respect him now after a speech. So please, teach me a lesson and I hope Trump retaliates further to teach you yours. This is your time to show us how wise or how foolish you are and I'm here for that. It won't take long to see either way, good luck, friend.

I'm Canadian - never been a fan of JT. But hearing him speak today made me proud. He's right - Canadians are polite easy going, but if you push us too far, we will retaliate. I hate this - I love America and have American friends. This sucks for both countries.

We stand with ??. I’m an American and wants Canada to stand on business do not back down from trump. Showing love from North Carolina. It will hurt the American people but a lesson needs to be learned. We smart Americans with logic sense stand 10 toes down with Canada. Handle your business sir… we are with you. We have had enough with this fool and he needs to be gone by all means necessary. Time to take the gloves off AMERICANS and get this idiot out of office. ???

For us Americans whose heads aren't shoved so far up our asses , we can see what we had for lunch. I apologize to the free world for Donald J Trump . I'm embarrassed to have to call this man president of the United States!

As an American, I'm GLAD canada is on the offensive. Trump doesnt care about the American people, all he cares about is money and numbers on paper.

Right. Canada -I’m with you! I’m An American ?? too

I stand with Canada...and I'm American.

I live in Belize and I'm praying for you Americans. You all have a tyrant on your hands! This is unbelievable.

We have a Russian American president and I’m ashamed to be called an American along side these criminal forgivers who elected this Putin controlled No good piece of ? President

Sorry to our closest ally. Trump, the dumbest president in American history, doesn't represent majority of americans. He is a bully and a coward. I'm sure a lot of his supporters have regretted they voted for him. They are feeling the pain and perhaps lost their jobs, too. This moron is 100 percent lunatic.

As a Dutch European who was going on holiday to the States which i cancelled and re-booked to Canada ( and so did my travel companions ) i do stand with Canada and would rather spend my money there now ( the least i can do for what they did for us, no matter how little, every little bit helps ) Sorry to the good Americans, but i will not spend one cent in America or on\n American goods for as long as that Dictator is in power. I'm pretty sure Europe welcomes you with open arms! ❤️??????

I find it so disturbing that I’m gonna say this if JD Vance little man JD Vance, the guy who called himself he was in the battlefield, but he wasn’t in no battle. He was just in the battlefield cleaning boots and you know making sure his gun work and you know cleaning his helmet, but he never went outside. He never went outside and what kills me. Is people who talk like they real veterans but they did no vet. They did no vet you ain’t no vet you talked about, the guy who is running with Kamala make it seem like he lied but she was in Afghanistan or I mean Iraq or whatever you call yourself you was in a compound. I know that for fact, JD Vance was in a compound awaiting instructions to see if you were able to go out there battle you didn’t go battle you watch the convoy go in and out. You are the same people you watch in mash mash the show when everybody go outside those same people sitting inside just cleaning boots and walking around that’s what he was doing, if this guy think that you guys could do whatever is dumb let everybody know mega is dumb. I don’t care what mega wanna say you put them in front of a scoreboard and you give them testes they going to show you their dumb most mega is dumb. They’re uneducated. That’s a fact There’s no going around it uneducated OK you can see from the terrorist that’s being put in. They’re uneducated because I don’t know who that’s why when people telling you they want to bring back religion you need to bring back economics in school bro economics in school. You need to bring what really matters not not you. Let a guy who duck the army twice with foot with phony letters, I don’t know how that’s not Fraud if I was supposed to go to the army army twice wouldn’t that call for me to be investigated and be charged for fraud on phone phones shouldn’t be charged for that but you guys run around here calling out veterans and fire and veterans and JD Van saying he’s a veteran and watching the veterans go down this is why I say you put them boys back on the battlefield. I guarantee you veterans will probably put them in the back put them in the back. Yeah they probably send them out to clean the mind as you know, they used to do to the black, servicemen back in the days they used to send them off the plane knowing they was gonna die. They used to send them off the plane to clean mines knowing that they’re gonna die. They used to send them off the planes and shot them while they’re getting shot by the opposition, tell me America if I’m lying about that didn’t you do that to the black serviceman you let them jump off the plane you shot at them but those same black servicemen help us win the war it wasn’t just American white blood they died just like everybody else they died and coward faster the black servicemen help us win the war from air and ground Those Jews, the Jews they help us war to so many races that they’re not telling you that helped you win this war World War I and two America is lying to you guys and that’s what’s been the problem for decades. America is lying to the people and they won’t take acceptability But JD Von he’s gonna get the president of United States. I’d rather vote for pence I’d rather vote for the same guy you say you wanted to vote for him for president then JD Vance if we had to put vice president up there and you had a choice out of say the Democrats loss and you had a choice out of JD Vance or pence I had to choose pence, I would choose Cristi. I would choose them near my feet. It doesn’t have a name to go into. I choose my feet. I would choose somebody else’s feet then put a despicable guy like JD vans a couch hump like JD vans AAA I can’t find a white bread American apple pie woman to marry but I had to go out and use my catalog to buy a woman from out-of-state pregnant her and give her a green card JD vans hell fuck fuck noyou will never get my vote even when you die. You won’t get my vote even when they died you won’t get my vote. Good luck, sir.

I'm an American veteran who served for 40 years in the military, and I'm proud I did. But this thing that's in the White House makes me ashamed to be an American. Please don't think real Americans support this ass. It's the slow witted people who only come out of the hills when they want to attack our Capital. We apologize for these people. Please pray for us. It's in God's hands now.

As an American, I’m sure I’m not alone in this sentiment, I am absolutely terrified, only 6 weeks in. God help us all

The border is just a smoke screen. Trump wants to cripple your economy so that he can move in and make you the 51st State of America. He is a dictator who, like his hero Putin, wants to build empires.\nI'm in Europe. I've already stopped buying anything American and if you export to us in Europe, I will buy Canadian.

Didn't vote for Trump, will never support the GOP again. I'm with you Canada. All true Americans are. Trump belongs in jail, Musk should be deported.

I'm American and I support America!

American here. I'm sorry!

Bravo Mr. Trudeau. I'm an American and I encourage you to not back down.

PM Trudeau, I’m an American and I don’t want this either. I’m not speaking for every American, but I know this “Trade War” is unnecessary and negligent. Thanks to our incompetent president.

I can't stand Trump. He is hurting us all. As an American, I'm embarrassed. I'm so sorry to Canada and Mexico. This is not my doing. But I stand behind YOU and Not the orange man-baby!

As an American, I'm not sure why Trump is doing this. I can see with Mexico there is a big problem but with Canada I just don't see it. I think Trump may have bit off a little bit more than he can chew.

As an American, I'm digusted by what Trump is doing. He's under the control of Putin.

I'm a French Canadian american from the state of Maine. Was born here. I love your response to trump. I think trump is an immature ego maniac. I wish we could kick him out of office!

Sincere apologies, Canada. I'd like to say this isn't who we are as Americans, but thanks to 78 million assholes, I'm beginning to believe it is.

I'm American and I did NOT vote for this. Thank you for putting so much thought into a measured response.

I'm American, and I support Canada AND Ukraine!! \nSomeone needs to stop this!!!

I just became a naturalized American citizen three weeks ago and frankly I wish I didn't. I'm embarrassed by the behavior of the Trump administration and not proud of being part of this America at all.

I am an American citizen. I did not vote for Trump. I would never vote for somebody like Trump and I’m sorry for what he’s doing to Canada but you do what you have to do we’ll survive, but somebody has to put Trump in his place.

HI FROM CANADA. WE ARE NOW AT WAR WITH THE USA... SORRY ABOUT THAT. YOU ARE NOT WELCOME. GO AWAY, STAY AWAY UNTIL YOU JAIL THE NAZI RUNNING YOUR GOVERNMENT... BUT IT'S TOO LATE. YOU WERE TOO LAZY TO ACT. YOU ARE NOW A NAZI STATE AND THERE WILL BE NO MORE ELECTIONS. AND YOU THINK I'M KIDDING. NOPE... AMERICANS GET OUT OF CANADA, STAY OUT. YOU ARE NOT WELCOME. LGBTQ REFUGEES FROM THE NAZI REGIME WILL BE TAKEN IN.

I'm an American citizen, but I definitely agree with Canada I'm more on peace, i stand for Canada. I fight for my fellow Americans who will suffer for this. I'm American, but I did not vote for him.

As an American, I'm sorry for what Canadians will suffer from these tariffs. I'm NOT sorry for what we Americans will suffer. The pain of consequences is the only path toward positive change. Wishing Canadians the best as we all weather this storm.

I stand with Canada. I’m an American. Thank you Justin.

As an American I am absolute ashamed and disgusted at what is happening to our standing in the world thanks to DJT. And I’m so sorry at the way this is affecting our allied countries and their citizens, our friends. I’m so sorry you have to fight this fight because so many of us failed to stop the fascist oligarchy takeover at home

I'm an American and I don't want this, I didn't vote for this, I'm upset by this, and I'm by no means the only American that thinks trade war with Canada is stupid, half the countries number one imports came from Canada, tariffs on a trade partner and Ally is absurd!

American here - stand strong Canada ?? I'm ashamed of the weakness my country is exhibiting.

We have half of the American people to thank for this, as they voted for this bafoon back into the White House!!! I’m sorry Canada that you’re having to deal with this…a lot of us Americans don’t deserve this either, but apparently this is what the majority of Americans want. I’ve never been so ashamed of my own country before. Today, this year, this era is a sad time for American’s history.

I'm trying to pick which idiotic thing this moronic president has done is the worst. The Tariffs. The Ukraine/Russia war. The Gaza handling. The Covid handling., or all of the above. I'm sure I'm missing something, but those should suffice..I'm American, and I STRONGLY stand with Canada! ..Oh! Mass deportations! How could I forget?!

Thank you Canada for putting that orange monster in his place , and by the way I'm an American !

So much for saving the economy and lowering grocery prices on day 1. I’m so exhausted when it comes to the USA and half of its citizens. Inflation up everything up lol I’m never going there again or buying anything American if I can help it. Enjoy your Russification dimwits.

So sad what's happening in this country right now. I'm an American and did not vote for trump and I'm with Ukraine and Canada.

You know I will be honest about this I'm not for Ukraine get American people money but Canada is our neighbors and I love the people of Canada but this has to come to some kind of agreement for American people and Canada people we are neighbors
