I'm an American, embarrassed of the actions and behavior of my fellow Americans and their leaders of the MAGA party/cult. I sincerely apologize for these idiots I seem to be surrounded by.

WOW! Trudeau finally grew some balls this year, I'm honestly really happy. I love to see how unified my country is against Uncle Scam and all his American hatchlings!!!

I’m American and I approve this message!

This Is the 1st step for an invasioni of Canada in fiew time.liar Trump and his friend now can bombarding american information about the evil Canadians.hope i'm wrong. this Is a nazi procedure

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 stand with Canada

I just stopped playing with friends when they turned into dicks. Now as an Adult I want the border shut to anyone with a US passport. I want it shut to anything coming or going to America. Close the border. \nI'm cool with struggling so the Americans can be independent....

I’m American and do not support Trump’s Russian administration. He’s purposefully sinking our country. The Republicans aren’t doing anything to stop him. We are losing our democracy because Trump is compromised and working for Putin along with Elon.

I’m American and I stand with Canada and Ukraine

Trudeau is a great leader. I’m so sorry for what our loser Trump is doing. I do want Canada to know that Americans are feeling all the bad things that Trump is doing. We cannot let this continue.

I'm an american and support you Canada❤❤??

I live in Canada and have watched Victor David Hanson, American historian, as far as I'm concerned one of the most credible resources regarding what is going on, after listening to him we only have ourselves to blame for the fiasco we are in.

As an American, I'm disgusted with these tariffs. Trump is definitely doing the WRONG thing here. We should be working with Canada and Mexico, not against them. It seems like Trump wants to be Putin's little Bitch.

This administration will go down at the worst administration in all history of America. The people that voted for Trump will go down as the same despicable traders cool in all of American history. I hope you hear that what he says you’re great great kids you’re great great grandkids will understand by itself. You cannot wipe that out. You can’t burn that book. You can’t change that note They will be talking about economy classes. They gonna be talking about this history classes they gonna be talking about Trump and JD Vance and this administration has the worst administration modern day America even in the past the worst thing that’s gonna happen is all of these guys who find himself alienated when they die. They will find himself alienated. Their kids will find himself alienated of their existence. The only way their kids is gonna escape that they have a daughters The only way you gonna escape that as a man who is back in this administration is to have daughters that could change their fucking name other than that any mail that is from these despicable despicable if you watch the movie, the despicable, even the guy that was the biggest biggest most craziest most narcissistic, OK we talk about the dude with all the minions minions. He even had a common sense and had a understanding and had a heart this administration talk about Biden talk about bull talk about Obb like they did something different. They didn’t do something different Obama Bush and NN and Biden did way better this administration they tagged the republican party for years to come. I hope you remember that no one in their mind will vote for Republican for years to come. I guarantee that, you let me give you 50 cash OK you don’t got businesses I could hop in and out of this country on a private plane or even take first class you guys are stuck here. Don’t talk to me about shit now because I got currency different countries, bro so when I’m talking to you, I’m talking to you low life concept of a plan. I ain’t talking to the plan.

I trust Justin wayyyyy more then trump and sadly I'm an American...smfh I hate dictator trump he's hurting my family and urs...but these brainwashed cult members has fycked us all

There’s a majority of American people who DID NOT what this felon near the White House, who are screaming for help right now. I’m one of them. We are beyond embarrassed and frightened right now. We are organizing.

He's not my president! I'm American and with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine ?

I’m one of the millions of Americans that loves and supports Canada ….and apologize for our elected Moron.

I'm American and I am so upset! Remove, Impeach Trump and Vance! Deport Musk! NOW!

Ia m American and saddened b Trumps action.He needs tobe imoeach and kicked out of office. Amwricans lets be the frist time in history and we got the reasons to remove a president.

We don't want this either Mr Trudeau, but I don't blame you. I'm with you on your side. and hopefully, my people will be on your side since Mr. Trump fooled the American people. We pray for everyone plus the Canadians. God be with you and everyone else.

I’m an American woman standing with Canadian people. I am so sorry this is happening ? why would Americans vote for him?

As an American I truly am sorry this is happening, I’m ashamed at what this administration is doing, I stand with Canada and all fellow European allies. Just know not all Americans are with this and we stand with you! It’s truly heartbreaking and the ones that didn’t vote for this person unfortunately have to go down with all of this…

I’m an American and I stand with Canada!

As an American, I'm so embarrassed. I stand with you all! Sending ?? the strength to fight and end this war!

I’m American, all the way down in Alabama, and I support Canada and Trudeau 100%.

I’m American ?? and very proud but not proud anymore.\nI’m standing up for Canada ?? Canada ?? Canada ?? !!!!

It's difficult, I mean Canadians' disgust, insult and anger at all of these completely unwarranted tariffs is not directed at the American people, it's at the crass, unhinged baffoon Trump who has enacted them, and yet (and this is where it gets difficult) over half of you voted for this obscene idiot as your president! How it is that there would ever been more than a dozen people who would vote for Trump is beyond me; he is NOT an honorable person and has not one redeeming quality. He is a vile, snorting pig, and no, I'm not insulting him, I'm describing him. He has to go.

I’m American and never thought our despicable president would be so low as to alienate our dear friends to the north! Shame on maga and Trump supporters that gave him this power god bless Canada and god please don’t forsake our country we are not our leader!

Paula Newton. Maybe walk back your words, this isn't anti-Americanism, that's extremely offensive to the situation. This is about one man and his cult \n\nAlthough there is the question why Americans are still letting this issue persist. When are you going to get off your asses and deal with your s***. You know what I'm saying

I am an American and I stand with Canada. I'm ashamed of the current American government/regime. Never voted for Trump.

I'm an American!!! I didn't ask for this!! I love Canada. I want peace

I'm glad there is still a trustworthy and intelligent voice of reason on the North American continent to counter the %#$@ that comes out of Donald Trump.

I’m an American that voted for trump. I’m sorry everyone.

I'm fucking disgusted to be an American. This is not what the vets in my family fought for.

American here. Not all of us are with him. A lot of Americans did not want him. We don’t back trump. We are just as disgusted and find him just as abhorrent. He does not represent American values. I stand with Canada and Ukraine and all of the countries he pulled aid from. I’m sorry.

I’m American, I wish I was a Canadian right now. Trudeau is a dignified leader and Canadians are lucky to have a leader like him… Us Americans are the losers here?

When are the Canadian borders open so I can move to Canada. I hate to say that I'm an American right now.

Justin, there are a lot of Americans that completely disagree with Trump. We know he lies constantly, and we don't believe a word he says. I'm right here in Mi, can I come live there? America is an embarrassment right now.

i'm canadian in canada we love our american neighbours just not what's in the white house

I'm ashamed to be an American.??

True Americans stand with all people who are fair, honest and DEMOCRATIC in their thinking...that includes the people of Canada and Mexico. I'm not altogether certain about the Chinese but we'll see if or how this impacts them and the reaction from there. That BUM knows precisely who those tariffs will benefit and it's not the people who work so hard in order to live their lives. I'm not crazy about Free Trade either but it is what it is.... This is retaliation...pure and simple. Anyone who crosses him will live to regret it...he'll make certain of it. He must be stopped and stopped NOW!

Is there no one at CNN who can translate French? Really? I'm American, and I'm hoping Trudeau announces that he's making trade deals with Europe (and even China) that cut us out. Betraying our allies should never be incentvised. I'm even hoping they cut off our oil, which WILL jack gas prices, since our refineries in the Midwest are only deisgned to process Canadian crude. And the truth is that the reason for the tariffs is that Trump has direct control over them, and can probably have Elon do something with the revenue that couldn't be done with normal taxes. We're all getting screwed here.

I, an American citizen, stand with Canada. I'm sorry so many Americans think Trump was going to be such a great thing. He's not. He is VERY stupid and only cares how he looks on TV. IMPEACH Trump

many people don't believe it but this is the start of America's downfall. I'm an American myself but I know how to call a spade a spade . And just like the great empires Thur out the world's history have fallen America will fall. The sad part is that the American people fell for the scam and did this .

I feel you Trudeau make it make sense because none of this makes sense. Because a felon being president makes no sense. Someone in government not standing up to him makes no sense. I’m disgusted in being an American.

As an American, we don’t want this either, it makes no sense. I’m embarrassed and ashamed of our government. I didn’t vote for this.

I'm American and stand with Canada!

Well spoken, go Canada and I’m American Brooklyn, New York
