Distract him from stealing the election by giving him suggestions for other things to rename. He clearly has no idea that like 80% of place names in America are either named for foreign things or indigenous things

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

What a pathetic human. I wonder if he's ever even touched the Atlantic.
Fuck off, Krasnov.
This is one instance where Trump is not to blame. It’s a perfectly reasonable request in light of Google’s capitulation on the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario.
Who knew a rapist would keep pushing past boundaries that other people would not cross? How could anyone have known!
This is distraction propaganda. Ifnore it and instead note that that his deployment of national guard has been rules as unlawful, a shit ton of people are finding out their citizenship has been revoked, hormuz is a fucking mess, oil prices spiked again, they’re trying to make it actively illegal and punishable by law to medically treat non-citizens, they just ruled that detained migrants have literally zero rights to anything, they’re actively trying to crucify Ilhan Omar as a political act to establish precedent, among others.
This is nothing, treat it as such. Nobody is immune to propaganda.
I heard today about a Canadian woman who had been living in the Untied States for 14 years, died because she was afraid to seek medical treatment.
I also heard about a 51 year old man who only just found out that he's not a citizen, he was adopted when he was a baby and lived in the Untied States all his life. Seems a sane and rational country would just make him a citizen at this point
Is anyone paying attention anymore?
Not enough people
Here's a userscript that renames Trump on every website you visit into a random humorous insult
My Dad says Trump's real name is Shithead
Earth? You must mean Trump. You see, the Trump orbits the Trump once every 365 Trumps. I happen to live in the United Trump of Trumps. I live in the state of Trump on the little island of Trump in the city of Trump. Trump Trump Trump, Trump Trump Trump!
America, america america america america. Trump trump trump trump trump trump.
simma down now racist smurf... I kid, I kid....
does give me flashbacks to my neighbors though, have an upvote anyway
So glad I de googled now. The impending doom that company to be ever taken seriously again is gonna be sad days for a lot of ppl who hopefully learn a bit more executive function in their life.
ignorant self centered fuck only deserves his name on a headstone
Anything to keep distracting from the files.
the only thing he cares about with the files is getting out of the presidence and some reasonably progressive dems coming in and properly locking him up for the rest of his live.
SCOTUS won't let it happen tho
We will be doing so much winning you may get tired of all this winning! 🫲🍊🫱
Lake Ontario, along with other lakes touches multiple countries... Google had no problem there 😉. In reality Americans are free to use whatever names they feel like for anything in the world, just like with the empirial measurement system but don't count on others to know WTF you talk about when you open your mouth.
So does the Gulf of MEXICO.
US customary because they got imperial wrong.
His dementia is in free fall. Watch him speak today, then watch him speak during his first term, when he already had undeniable signs. He's fucking gone. Any one of us would be in a home if we were this bad off.
The amount of time he spends talking about men's asses these days is wild.
Eagerly waiting for the Happy Meal cholesterol to do its thing. I have a tattoo planned for once it happens
If he had his wits with him he'd pick the biggest ocean. Not #2.
You can't name the Atlantic ocean "Trump Ocean", it will be confusing because "Trump Ocean" already has a meaning: it's the liquid in a wastewater aeration tank.
It's ok that you didn't know about it, given that I just named it.
Sigh
Can we please put an adult in charge?
The Republicans: Sure which one? Hegseth? Vance?
Hahahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahahaha!
Google says they can't do it because it borders multiple countries. Didn't stop them from changing the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario.
To be fair, that’s what Trump says Google said. Even odds the entire conversation only happened in his mind.
Google lies.
Eh, whatever excuse keeps the toddler in chief pacified for a bit.
Fair enough, just keep him away from the nukes and toddlers that remind him of his daughter I suppose.
Trump told supporters at Wednesday's rally in South Carolina that he asked Google CEO Sundar Pichai to suggest renaming either the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean the “Trump Ocean,” but was told it could not because oceans span numerous countries.
Unlike gulfes or lakes.
Yeah, but that's just Mexico and Canada, and who cares about them?? /s
Ima ask goggle to rename a turd a Trump
Brb gotta got take a big fat trump.
checks out. You've got my vote.
You'll be pleased to learn trump already means fart.
Let’s rename Google to “Complicit”
The man wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico to downgrade his sex trafficing to domestic.
Maybe they could rename it for maps served to the MAC address that matches Trump's personal phone.
Google said no
Well, supposedly they said "please don't ask us to do that," according to one of his speeches.
