I don’t know which is worse. That he is a twat, or that Google think their renaming something on their maps actually means anything (as he obviously does).

    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

    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his deployment of national guard has been rules as unlawful, a shit ton of people are finding out their citizenship has been revoked, hormuz is a fucking mess, oil prices spiked again, they’re trying to make it actively illegal and punishable by law to medically treat non-citizens, they just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

    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!

      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

    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.

    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.

    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.
