45/47 represents Amerikkka... if you know what I'm saying. The marginalized and educated Americans do not want this. The dude bros, cult followers, and corrupt people want this. Dump doesn't represent me as an American. I don't blame Canada at all.

Good on Canada for standing up for their people. The news anchor seems offended that Canada is talking “harshly “ to poor o frump… o please! Enough with the treatment of kid gloves Americans will be deeply hurt by this buffoon starting a trade war with our allies… the frumpy supporters this is what you voted for so don’t want to hear crying…. You didn’t want to listen to the warnings given so now deal with it just like everyone else that knew better ….

Everything Canada has done recently was AFTER Trump did something.\n\nMeaning if they wanted to do something about it with the prior administration they could have they just decided it wasn’t worth the investment.\n\nThis guy cares more about his hair products than the average Canadian much less American.

I am absolutely embarrassed to be an American. On behalf of the millions of Americans who were mentally weak enough to vote for this steaming pile of a presidential administration, I want to sincerely apologize to the countries in the world who are dedicated to promoting democracy, and decency, and opposing 12-year-old childish bullying, tyranny, and dishonesty. To my fellow Americans who were stupid enough to be dupped by this cesspool sitting in power in the white house, STOP BEING IDIOTS AND PULL YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES before we become a dictatorship with a puppet ruler lead by another dictator!!!!!!!

As an American, I must say we have boot-licking morons running our Government. I can't believe EVERY Republican agrees with anything that Trump says. It's like we're living in a Twilight Zone episode. I feel so bad for Pr. Zelenskyy and Ukrainians. I'm embarrassed to be American and I can't believe so many Americans were voting for this clown. That probably bothers me more than anything. Apologies to the world and our friends in Canada. JT is being too kind. Shut down your borders to the USA. Ontario....cut your electrical and energy power to the USA. Cut off all trade. I hope China does the same. Make the USA swirl down the drain in pain. I don't want to wait for 2 years to try and vote in more Democrats to put a stop Trump .Bully him back. Bullies always back down when strongly confronted.

Zelensky was in no position to make demands. Trump wants the war to stop, zelensky wants firepower. The war needs to come to a stop and we need to stop funding a war involving a country we're not even allied with. \n\nIf you dont agree with tariffs, it means you know that you import way to much shit. Dont like the tariffs, build it in america. Thisnis about american jobs.

You need to realize what Trump's real agenda is. All he really wants is money. He wants to make himself and his rich buddies richer. His plan to do that is to cut government spending radically, and impose a sales tax to fleece American consumers. Once he's got the cash flow the way he wants, he will cut corporate tax and capital gains tax so that his companies and his investments can make a lot more money and so can his rich buddies, while still being able to pay off his lackeys in the senate and congress. That's it. It is that simple. Everything else is a distraction to make the media forget his real plan.

American prices will rise across the board, farms will fail, factories will shut down, unemployment will climb and the US being a weak society will sit there and take it while the billionaires and corporations pulling the strings plunder the treasury and steal all the tax money. Sure Canada will take a hit but at the end of the day we will come out of this stronger and with the respect and backing of the world and America will be weaker and viewed as too untrustworthy and undependable for anyone to want to do business with.??

As an American I don't want this and I did NOT vote for this nightmare.

Justin Trudeau with iron in his voice. Thank you, Mr President. As a British person on my side of the Pond, these are welcome and necessary words. Let us all in Britain and in Europe echo Mr Trudeau's sentiments. We want our friendship with America back, intact, but it requires the removal of Trumpism and fascism from the American psyche. American democracy can come back better and stronger in the absence of its current madness and malaise. Trump is not a President. He is a Pretendident.

The Mexican president wants Trump yo take care of the cartels in USA, why he doesn’t take care of in his territory and wants to fix it in Mexican Territory. The last army guns that the government confiscated in Mexico were for Americans to tried to cross to Mexico .

As an American, I am deeply ashamed. We don't want this either. I can't understand why people did not educate themselves before voting. We are all victims of the confirmation bias of maga.

For your information Trudeau resigned as the Prime Minister of Canada. Canadians are waiting for a federal election date to be announced. After 9 years Canadians overwhelmingly want rid of this fool. Our economy is in ruins long before the American people elected Donald Trump

I am an American and I don't want this and I didn't vote for the orange stain. I support your efforts because this is CRAZY!

americans are like why would you boo a country that wants to annex you? You cant spell america without stupid!

To maga american, I say this. To quote Tom Cruise in Jack Reacher. « Remember, you wanted this »

Trump did the tarrifs, not America. Please know that most of us Americans don't want this.

I think Trump wants to brake Canada ,bring us to our knees and force us to give up and say ok we'll become your 51st state,and why does he want to take us over well thats easy ,he wants to take over and control are resource's And i have yet to hear why Trump says we have abused American for years,like how have we done that?

Come on bro you know that Joe Biden is the one that hurt this country with what he let you and every other country get away with against the American people a lot of us woke up we voted for Trump there's a mandate you can talk crap and try to lie all you want that's what you liberals do but we know better I stand with Trump

Russia has always had Trump as a puppet, and he is doing exactly what Putin wants. Can anyone explain this in a way that makes sense? Canada?? Putin wants to destroy democracy, and what better way than through an Orange Turd? Americans you did this, so only you can undo this.

As an American, the saddest thing is I now have to root against America. A slim majority of those who voted put this wannabe dictator and putin puppet in office and I want to see other countries point that out and slap back. The world needs to recognize the psychosis of donald trump. There isn't any equal relationship or deal with him. He must feel like he's humped you into submission. But like all weak men and bullies, he's ultimately a coward in the face or real challenge. Thank you Canada and accept the sincere apologies of the voters that foresaw and rejected this disastrous government.

When will Canada learn that Trump wants to annex Canada by destroying it. Americans asked for this and it is up to them to fix it

I cannot believe on his last days as PM, he finally started fighting fentanyl, under the threat of tariffs and he wonders why they still put them in place. It’s probably because they want to make sure that he keeps doing what he should have done for Canadians along time ago. But trump should not keep the tariffs in place after Justin is gone it will only hurt both us Canadians and Americans.

Majority of Americans do not want this. DT needs to be removed. He is damaging the USA.

So Americans want to give money away because Canadas president doesn't want to pay 25%. Americans just got lazy and want other countries make their stuff instead of doing it themselves and making the price lower.

1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.

We Americans voted for this, we want the fentanyl to stop entering our country and killing our people!

why aren't u concerned about Americans having to pay such high prices when they were told inflation is not what the Fed wants

Canada has not cared about our border too many illegals getting across, too much fentanyl, because letting people across fit's with his agenda. Over 79 million Americans voted for DJT and his policies it's what we want MAGA. We will keep our sovereign Nation.

DT? The American president who wants to be remembered as a “peacemaker”? And he starts a NEW WAR? Not with one country but with two and God knows with who else will he go after. Power and Money hungry fool. \nAmericans when are they going to wake up. D Trmp is NOT God. Constantly claims in every tv moment he REPEATS his prerogative that “no war would have started if he was in power 4 years ago” and he tries to get two wars stop with an special ‘noble peace’ title interest. Make it clear. Trmp is NOT God. And he is not smart as he claim he is. He uses fear to get anyone fear him. Millions around the world have no respect for this man. I don’t think God is actually happy with this man. He is getting old just like Biden and soon his cognitive will decline too. He is already crunching bending forward and can verily hold his head straight up and the bulge in his back shows he is tired. Will see him soon sleeping in front of cameras.

I, as an American, do not agree or want this. Our government is out of control!

RESPONSE TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROPAGANDA AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP\n\nTo the American People, Mainstream Media, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk\n\nThe mainstream media is once again spinning lies and manipulating reality to push their globalist agenda.\n\n? THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT TRUMP IS CREATING A WAR WITH CANADA AND MEXICO.\n? THE TRUTH? TRUMP IS DEFENDING AMERICA FROM THE COLLAPSE THEY HAVE PLANNED.\n\nCNN and other media outlets are pushing a false narrative about President Trump imposing tariffs on Canada and Mexico as an “attack” or “act of economic war.” This is not about war. This is about taking America back from the deep state elites who have been destroying our economy and flooding our country with illegal immigration.

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.

He's totally contradictory, he says the border has been great yet he's spending a billion making it better. Clearly a major issue is fentanyl and how many Americans are affected. Anyhow hasn't he gone yet? Canada I know you want someone better than this guy.

America first, simple. It baffles me that Americans want others to take advantage of us

I love my country but I absolutely don’t agree with this administration or this president. He is trying to destroy America just like Russia wants him and musk he won’t suffer we the people will suffer. He must like watching American people suffer. ?

I don't think trudy knows on CNNhas only 6 viewers. \n\nWe the American people don't want to see you dictating and lying to our Canadian friends trudy!

I am an American and I did NOT vote for that orange blob and these really dumbass tariffs. I voted for the smart, black woman!!! I do NOT want to hear ANYONE who voted for that orange dunce complain about the high prices!!

Most Americans don't want this either. So sorry.

Canada, you were so happy to continue to be “partners” with American because you were receiving millions of dollars from America every year! Now that Trump is standing up the USA citizens, you no longer want to be friends… I see your TRUE colours showing.

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. ???

Prime Minister Trudeau, as an American, I understand and support what you're doing because we are being held hostage by walking talking malfeasance in the white house. I did not vote for that man and under eternal lifetimes would never vote for that man nor the people that support him. \n\nI don't want to suffer and I don't want others to suffer but there is no recourse with the current occupant of the White House.

American here, Canada we love you. We stand with you. We’re sorry. Most of us don’t want this either. Do what you need to do. My only hope is that you can forgive us one day. ??

feel sorry for your farmers hope they got what they wanted when they lose there farmes and all the stores that will close 25 billion dollars on vacations GONE buy american products gone day trips gone order on line from usa gone investing gone get the point america

The orange stain does *not* represent the feelings of all, or even most, Americans. We don't want this either.

Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and their Republican allies should pay for this. Donald Trump can’t do this to Canada nor Mexico. I don’t want to pay higher prices. Donald Trump needs to be removed from office immediately. We Americans need to do more protests against Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk.

President chump is an ignorant pig, respect to Canada! do what you gotta do, if americans didn't want this then that orange stain of a president wouldn't have gotten elected, but all the orange stain minons voted for him, by choice.

President Trudeau, most of us Americans are with you. We don't want Trump at all. Please help us.

Congress and Biden approved grants of 350 millions at least x2 while Hawaiians lost their homes and got 300dol from the government for assistance, North Carolina Republicans were ignored if they had any political signs and many left homeless, California also many left lost their lives and left homeless. The previous government didnt care about its Citizens. Trump is looking out for Americans and Americans tax payer money. Canada and mexico did have open borders for illegal immigration and drugs to come in. Zelensky thinks that Americans work for him and that he can come whenever he wants and demand not just money weapons but troop involvement.

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.
