I'm an American and support Canada and all Canadians ?! Stand up to the incompetent and pathetic POS wannabe president derelict decrepit trump.

Elbows up Canada.. Americans don't want this. It is Trump and MAGA morons

I'm American and so ashamed of our country’s behavior… Trump is a villain, a greedy, dictator!\n\nSo many of us Americans align with you Canada… Trump is diasterous and devastating our country. Trump is evil, corrupt and needs to go! Trump is a liar and we don't believe anything Trump says!

*This is how an ACTUAL politician/diplomat talks. Trump never was, is not, and never will be a politician or diplomat. He is just some loudmouth hooligan. I feel sorry for those Americans who were dumb enough to vote for him for the first time and disgusted toward those Americans who voted for him AGAIN.*

Please do not call Donald Trump and Elon Musk the government of the United States. They are the idiots of America. I am an American and I will stand with Canada and the rest of the world against Trump, Musk, and Russia. I wish Justin Trudeau was the POTUS! We don't have a POTUS, we have an orange grifter in chief. He is deranged, spoiled and stupid. Our largest trading partner and the orange clown fucks it up, wow!

I'm an American and am ashamed and embarrassed by my country that is run by the wanna be Dictator Trump!

trumps tarrifs tax on goods imported from Canada are paid by the AMERICAN COMPANIES who import the goods, NOT paid by Canadian companies, it's an extra sales tax which raise prices.

As an American I'm extremely saddened and disappointed by everyone who voted for Trump when we knew this day was coming. It's your fault this country is about to go through one of the worst economic periods ever.

we the American people don't want this either. it's only the Trump administration that is asking for this . thank you for your understanding Canada we the people stand with you as well.

As an American, I stand with Canada…May Donald Trump rot in hell

I am american. I stand with Canada, Mexico and Ukraine. None of this makes sense. Trump is a Treasonous traitor Putins puppet and a domestic terrorist with a maga cult taking a hostel government takeover for Putin. \nTrump is doing Putins bidding destroying America from within. He doesn't care about you, Ukraine or the American people. He lies and spreads Russian propaganda.

Breaking news: Trump demands an apology before any changes at the expense of Americans for Trudeau insinuating he's dumb. (He is)

.... Ugh. I don't understand my fellow Americans. I do not understand why they would want to have someone like Donald Trump represent us. I mean is he trying to piss off everyone outside of the US? Don't even get me started on that Trump Gaza AI generated video. Does he really view himself as being a gold statue? I seem to remember a story in a book about people that worship the gold idle of a bull. So does Trump think he's bigger than God? Obviously. Maybe it's the end of times and Donald Trump or Elon musk is the Antichrist. But nevertheless it's a shameful time to be an American citizen.

Like I've said before or two other blogs, this man should not be up there addressing CNN or any other network or any population. Whether it be Canadian or American. He has no right to be there. He is not the prime minister of this country anymore. He has no right to be making policies or to be imposing tariffs or doing anything else of the sort. Furthermore, he is also politically, unsavvy and ignorant. He in his running the mouth speech this afternoon. Insulted Donald Trump again by calling him dumb. I'm telling you that will not go very well with Mr. Trump and I wouldn't be surprised to see additional tariff percentage increased on the 25% already in place. Justin Trudeau is not a prime minister. He is a thug, an absolute idiot, a moron and any other adjective that you can find to describe someone who is totally and completely incompetent and incapable of implementing policy or running a country.

Trump is like a Toddler thar never grew up. Sad for the Americans that didn’t vote for him, but now have to pay the price of his stupidity.

It’s not the American people. It’s our maniacal dictator, Trump!

American here. Trust me what Trump is doing is foolish. There are many MANY Americans like myself that can agree. We cannot control this devil in power.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\ntrumps attempted assassination was staged for rigged election results. elon is an oligarchy that paid his way into government.

You, as Americans, have to remove Trump and his cronies from office. He is destroying your country. He is CRAZY! He is a threat to world security.

Listen all over the world react to Donald Trump. Looking at in the old testement how God punish His people. United States now loosing the free world leader now. It's a shame. I'm not sure who is the dictator now. A free world leader not speaking like a 6 years old kit. America is a christian country, American should speak or talking like a christian, not talk like evil.

Americans call your representatives and demand change or call for secession from the Union. Trump is an idiot hell bent on causing chaos, The States are no longer United and a symbol of truth, Justice, and liberty. \nSend a message by leaving the union.

I’m just so sad and that the current american administration is trying so hard to make us hate each other! \n\nWhen things get bad, in a couple of weeks or months for both of us. Trump and his media Will absolutely blame Canada, not just for trying to defend itself, but for all of it. He Will try to make americans hate us so much so he can get something out of it and thats so wrong.\n\nI have so many memories of traveling to the US and meeting great people there. I don’t want it to end and I want to remember that most americans are our friends, good people who don’t wish harm to others.\n\nI really Hope reason and good people Will prevail, I Hope je won’t bête allowed to continue down this path for long, I Hope the congress or anyone will stand up for whats right. Courage!

I agree with Canada in every statement said here. It’s sad that Americans have allowed themselves to be manipulated by one man. As an American I say to Canada and Mexico, do what you need. We don’t see this as an attack on us, but as a response to an attack by Trump on your countries. I used to wonder how Hitler was able to convince so many to follow him. We have seen exactly the same behavior by Americans, today, who follow Trump. It’s sad, and it’s disgusting.

As sorry as I am for all Americans who didn't vote for Trump, I hope that America will suffer from his democratic decisions and learn from it's mistakes. Otherwise, the democratic world order could collapse.

Mr Trudeau you are a great leader and unfortunately our country is totally F@$%@D because of one me who is a total Idiot and is destroying the country and I agree with you ?% that Putin is a lying corrupt thug Dictator who needs to be Stopped at all cost and I also believe he has to have sumthing hanging over Trump's head i honestly can't believe he is thst stupid anyways i hope you have woken up the American people and our senate and congress they need to impeach Trump ASAP and have his side kick JD Vance resign before they cuase even more damage you are a true gentleman who Mr Trump should learn a thing or 2 from God bless our Country ?

Donald Trump has literally embarrassed me as an American. What a shameful, disgusting occupant of the Oval Office. SMDH

At this juncture the whole world have seen how ignorant American voters are by allowing this low profile exconvict and a draft dodger to dictate for a country like America , TRUMP himself is illitrate forget about the English language the man knows nothing when it comes to international politics and how American foreign policies work , a man with zero experience public office how can he rule but guess what American people deserve everything thats been happening to them , they better stfu and deal with it

As an American thank you for acknowledging we the people of the US that are not in agreement with Trump

Lost American jobs caint pay mortgages caint buy food lost homes cars can't afford insurance payments feed your families America has been hoodwinked and bamboozled by Trump this is a nightmare

TRUMP LAUNCHED THE TRADE WAR. as an American I guarantee you that the non maga Americans do not approve of these stupid tariffs against Canada and mexico. I support ?????? all the way

I'm an American woman who is totally Embarrassed for the USA. I didn't vote for him and I have no Respect for him. I stand for Canada, Ukraine and Mexico. We're going to suffer while the billionaires in the white house (Musk) keep getting wealthy. What the hell Trump. Ur getting rid of our allies for being Putin's Puppet!!! I hate it here!??

Canadian Prime Minister is a Real mature man that speaks eloquently and is intelligent and is correct and fair !!\n Beautiful speech , thank you Prime Minister, we as Middle class Americans are fighting for our survival and are scared that Trump is listening to billionaires instead of the People!!❤️???

trump is acting under putins orders .to do his masters bidding ...Trump is 100 percent in putin pocket ..wake up american !

How americans dont see that the trump administration is a russian inside job .... i dont get it... all they do is go against there allies and lick putins balls.

I served my country but Trump's idiocy makes me want to apologize for being American

Still do not understand how americans might vote for Trump who.is russian agent since 1987

Its not all Americans but the ones who support Trump deserve what they get , your leader is completely unhinged and causing hardship to all Americans it closest allies and chaos through-out the world while only defending dictator countries Americans need to get Trump out of office before before things much worst act now

They say tariff would raised prices and will be paid by american citizen and that trump is hurting the americans.. so Why is trudeau raising prices for canadian citizen in a form of 25% tariff on american goods? \n????????

When unqualified cabinet members, advisors that just yes men; no one to tell Trump “let’s rethink this….” And here we are today. ? there are no checks and balances in the branches… wake up Americans!

Time to take care of Americans. That's the bottom line cause donold trump said so ?

Canadá must also sticks Trump administration with trade tariffs. I also wonder what is crooked Donald Trump is going to do with the fentanyl drugs- addicted Americans, when they are cut off of fentanyl?. No fentanyl, no Medicaid, no food stamps, no SS I checks.

A well spoken leader who is looking out for his people while recognizing that most Americans do not support trumps actions. Sadly trump doesn’t give a rats ass about anyone but himself.

Woo hoo JT! Proud of you. The world is proud of you. Trump has now made life difficult for both sides of the border. Americans and Canadians do not want this for each other. Trump has never lived in the real world, he doesn’t care about families. He’s an old @sshole who only thinks in zero sum games, and that’s not negotiation folks!

Justin Tredeau is such a gentleman. So intelligent. I'm sorry this is happening. I voted for Harris and am brokenhearted still. Trump isn't intelligent ?. I can tell you the vast majority of Americans cannot stand this poor excuse for a human being. I would leave the states but I am not well enough sadly. We want to get Trump and his synchophants out of the Whitehouse. Pray with us and for us that we can do this. Much love to Canada ?? ❤️.

May I come there to live please? \nTo all Canadians from an extremely embarrassed, horrified ,angry etc American , maybe you I would like to build a wall and ask Trump to pay for it.

to all americans: why don't u all go out and protest against trump and this lunacy more? show him and his friends you disagree?

I agree with absolutely everything Trudeau has said in his speech except for calling Trump a smart man. Trump is definitely not smart, quite the opposite. I understand that Trudeau needs to have his ego stroked, but lying to the world about Trump‘s intelligence is pointless. Those Americans, who ARE smart must remove Trump and the Republicans from office ASAP

Trump’s intention is to raid the American economy for his own personal financial interests. Regardless of the fallout on the American people or the world.

From us in Britain. I think ever since Trump back in power he cause massive divid between american and their allies. Maybe Trump is the enemy now possible bigger threat than Russia and China. Canada your always welcome in Britain.

All my respect goes to Trudeau, who remained apologetic to the citizens of both countries throughout his speech. SHAME ON CNN for calling it Anti-Americanism !!! Trump picked this fight and let's not forget that ! And for NOTHING. another embarrassing moment for legacy news media that just proves either how dumb or how corrupt most are.

Never back down to Trump! Signed, An American who didn't vote for that bully
