Along with some jokes, McRae expresses her excitement to see the Red, White and Blue compete, which has upset some fans.
“Uhh isn’t she Canadian?? What is she doing?” one user commented, while another added, “Girl you’re Canadian, please what is this.”
Others highlighted the timing of her promotion, noting that U.S.-Canada relations are currently strained.
Comments included sentiments like “Tate I love you but this should’ve been for Canada,” and “You’re Canadian but promoting America for the Olympics??? This is so disappointing lmao.”

While many expressed their discontent about her support for Team USA, others chose to compliment her performance and appearance instead.
As one insightful user noted, perhaps Team USA simply offered her a larger incentive to be its cheerleader, leading to a joke about greed.
