“We seriously looked at the Atlantic Ocean, I called Google Maps who were really great with the lake, really great and I spoke to a brilliant guy, Sundar, he heads all of Google, he's a brilliant guy, Sergey and Sundar, totally brilliant guys,” Trump said.

Because neither the Gulf of Mexico or Lake Ontario border any other countries?

I'm shocked they had enough of a backbone to refuse this request.

Sure, lets name an entire ocean after a child-fucking, dementia-ridden, diaper-wearing, tiny hands grifter.

His cult loves this stuff, evidence of a cult, support whatever the leader says and does w/o question. It's part of all unhealthy, controlling systems that call obedience virtue and real integrity verboten.

Gotta book those trans trump flights

I wish there was a way to call it that to poke fun at him but not hurt anyone else's feelings. Because I only want to offend him, and I think that this would bug him enough to taco again.

You make an excellent point. I did not intend to upset anyone.

Any flight over a trump ocean should be called a pink eye flight

If we take away his power to make choices as well i'm fine by it, but history and present have quite some examples of what can delusional dictators 'achieve'.

He also asked to rename the pacific ocean to trump ocean.

He’s totally smurfing the Smurf on that Smurf near the Smurf.
