The majority of American airports are not serviced by trains. Public transport to an airport usually involves several bus transfers and at least an extra hour or more of travel time, on top of having to transport your luggage on and off each bus and hoping there is room for you and your items. Americans don't hate public transport, it's just simply not available like it is in Europe. A lot of this stems historically from automotive manufacturers buying up streetcar companies and then dismantling them to force people to drive and also the antiquated rail infrastructure that gives preference to freight cargo over passenger trains.
