First he came for The Gulf of Mexico and I said nothing
Then he came for Lake Ontario and I still said nothing
But he's going for the Atlantic Ocean

Trump floats renaming Atlantic or Pacific 'Trump Ocean' to huge cheers at MAGA rally | Daily Mail Online

He's very good at rage bait, isn't he.....

'So we need a river and we need an ocean, so I was thinking of either the Atlantic or the Pacific,' Trump declared.
'We'll call it Trump Ocean or Ocean of the Americas.'
The suggestion drew an enthusiastic response from the MAGA faithful as Trump entertained the prospect of attaching his name to one of the planet's vast bodies of water.
He made clear that he wanted the transformation to happen before his presidency comes to an end.
'We should have - before I get out, I think we should have a ocean or we need a great river,' he continued.

If this is true it just makes me think of the toddler he is. Pointing at his potty demanding applause for his deposit.

Nothing about Trump surprises me anymore. He is the worst, stupidest and thickest US President there has ever been.

Hopefully this is just more spurious bollocks that he has plucked from thin air and won't come to anything.

As you say though, he does love rage bait. Along with fake news.

He won't remember he said this by tomorrow. And if he does let him do it. Nothing else is called by anything he has decreed in reality anyway.

The more he trots out this garbage, the more people ignore him. I don't even read anything about him any because 90% of it's just him talking trash.

I’ve thought long and hard about this, and, my considered opinion is that: He’s mental, isn’t he?

DuncinToffee · 11/10/2026 17:35

You forgot the Strait of Hormuz to Trump Strait

Google and Apple will comply

I think he's a very useful idiot for those who actually control what goes on. I am not a conspiracy theorist, but I know distraction when I see it.

SnowflakesandSlippers · 11/10/2026 17:44

Do you think he'll be able to find it?

This would be so stupid and egotistical I struggle to believe it’s real. Surely it’s AI. Or SI. Or BS.

SomeoneIsWrongOnTheInternet · 11/10/2026 18:20

(BS from Trump is par for the course btw. He’s named for trumping after all).

CorporalJohn · 11/10/2026 18:37

So what?

MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack · 11/10/2026 18:39

Honestly, if renaming the oceans was all he was doing, the world would be fine. It's the other shit that I'm worried about.

Dontlletmedownbruce · 11/10/2026 18:44

Is it real? I guess anything is possible. Trump isn't the problem, he's just a crazy mentally ill old man. The problem is the system that gives him power. I am still shocked and livid that Google complied with his request to rename the Gulf of Mexico. So much so that I no longer use Google as a search engine. I admit I still use maps but I'll change if anyone can recommend an alternative.

Two. More. Years. Groan.....

Better than four I suppose.

HenriettaHippopotamus · 11/10/2026 18:47

Can we name some sewage plant or rubbish dump after him? He’s such an arse.

What a wanker.

He doesn't care. It's the attention/distraction/adulation he wants. They have plenty of great rivers all with historic names. The River Fat CF/Grifter/Felon/Liar doesn't sound as good as Mississippi or Missouri or Hudson
