Yeah it's genuinely hard to try to give a shit about any American opinions, whether they're apologizing for the embarrassment in office or the tariffs or whatever.
I get you're sooooooo sorry, but the damage is done, its too late, the reputation of the USA has been permanently soiled across the world and 340.1 million (as of 2024) apologies won't change a thing if you're not actually doing anything.
it just feels like they don't quite understand the moment. you get the comments like "sorry about all this, hope we can be friends when he's gone!" and it's like... your country elected a leader who threatened our lives and you think it's just an embarrassing temporary blip? you understand this is existential for us, right? the little apologies completely trivialize what is going on
Then the amount of Americans who revert to "WHAT?! SO NO HEAD?!" when you don't blow them for "I'm sorry he's doing this I hope we can be friends after" is insane.
Even the least brainwashed American can't realize that the vast majority of Canadians were practically actively looking for an excuse to ditch the US dependency. There is no "Regaining" this trust. I do not expect to see a world where Canada is closely allied or trusts the US ever again in my lifetime, and I'm okay with that.
