"I said, 'Sundar, I'm thinking of the Atlantic Ocean. Can you handle it?'

"'No, no, no, this time I'm not doing it,' he said, 'Oceans are different, sir. They cover a lot of - really a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that.'"

The US president later said he would "probably pass" and keep the name Atlantic, before saying, "We're going to call it the American Ocean".

All americans, listen. I can not stress this enough but your presidunce is one of the dumbest pieces of meat based scum that's ever lived AND you are all being judged by what that wobbling orange obese child rapist's actions.
And will be for at least a generation.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! The only way you will ever, ever claw back any respect is if you kill or forcibly remove that fucking disgusting shitgoblin. FUCK!

Dude, this isn't the movies. Going against the strongest military in the world isn't an option.

It's yet to be seen which side the military will fall on. That's what's going to matter.

It's hard to say. I never thought in a million years so many republicans of all levels, would bend the knee so fast.

I remember GHW Bush's campaign co-opting "family values". In hindsight, this has been a long time coming.

It's got to the point that I'm just hoping the rest of the world loses enough respect to finally tell America to get fucked. Letting them do pretty much whatever they want since the end of WWII has been a disaster.

You might have heard of "the Marshall plan". It was not too bad

Americans don’t do conflict anymore. I mean, themselves… they are fine with ICE and bombing Iran.
