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.

He just keeps escalating demands until he's stopped.
If you read the article text, he's telling people at a rally that he asked Google's CEO to do it and they said no.
Now, I'd take anything Trump says about deals and interactions with anyone else with a large grain of salt, as he's pretty flagrantly lied in the past, but even if taken at face value, he's saying that his request didn't go through.
First he asks, then he posts on social media and then makes an executive order.
Now, I’d take anything Trump says about deals and interactions with anyone else with a large grain of salt,
Doesn't really apply in this case. Either option, 1) Trump asked or 2) Trump lies about asking, are pretty much equally bad. Trump is proven unfit to manage a McDonalds in either case.
Now Trump claiming someone else said is always worthy of skepticism. Especially when it is someone not aligned with Trump.
I don't hate many people.
But I absolutely hate this motherfucker.
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 Atlantic borders other countries"???
And the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario don't...?
That's what you get for bowing to trump on Lake Ontario and the Mexican Golf. The orange turd will assume he can ask you to do anything for him.
I hope The Onion doesn't go bankrupt because of Trump, since they can't even get a satirical article made because everything real is currently on the level of satire
They can simply become a reputable news organization, and don't even have to change up their content much!
The back catalog will confuse people into thinking it's always been this batshit, though. XD
It only took 6 months for this satirical article to become reality.
The singularity approaches.
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.
It can all be a little bit confusing at times. That's why I started playing the Trumpet, as a hobby, as that was the one musical Trump that didn't need to be renamed. Besides that, watching a lot of The Smurfs, I mean, The Trumps, has also helped to better "grok" this brave new language. I mean, this brave new Trump.
simma down now racist smurf... I kid, I kid....
does give me flashbacks to my neighbors though, have an upvote anyway
They've caved to him before so why not keep going? That's how he works.
Only in the US.. Fairly sure they didn't do anything internationally. Sounds like they did the bare minimum
They added the bullshit names in parentheses - as if anyone would actually use them anywhere else in the world. 
The wikipedia page for Lake Ontario doesn't even mention the nonsense about renaming it
Gulf of Mexico? Atlantic is only a bigger version of that (that touches more countries)
Happy to call it the Mexican ocean..
I'd prefer to keep it Atlantic, doesn't need any country or even continent's name on it, not even my own (Europe that is; my country is way too far from the ocean itself to make a claim anyway).
IF we're going to have to troll Trump, it could be the West African Ocean though. Pacific would be East Asian Ocean then.
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
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.
Anything to keep distracting from the files.
The man wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico to downgrade his sex trafficing to domestic.
And he still hasn't been introduced to a guillotine?
you mean a Trumpotine? :>
"I thought you meant Trump Poutine! A delicious snack, some people are calling it the best...". <Ssshhbbb chonk! Roll...>
They're gonna trump off his head on the trumping block. I hear sometimes when people get trumped they trump themselves so bad that one can smell their trump from like a mile away.
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.
You know, renaming random things is something obscure dictators do, only Trump isn't renaming cities or months, he's renaming oceans and seas.
How long until Trump renames Washington DC to "Trump"?
I'm pretty sure he does not know what the C is in DC or he would have renamed it already to A(merica)
I think we should name way more things after him: The Donald J. Trump Dump and the Donald J. Trump-Chicken Farm. Trump-Diarrhea though this might also be the Robert F. Kennedy Diarrhea. A Ship being hit with a mine shall be known as a Trump-Maneuver. Going bankrupt is just "Trumping".
Sigh
Can we please put an adult in charge?
Next he will rename China to America 2.
When Google and Apple immediately rolled over on command and changed the last two names (Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario) they had to know this would only encourage him and lead to things like this.
But Mexico & Canada ok!? GTFO 😡 This is why I’m dialing down my reliance on Google! I hope I can get to zero reliance 🤞
No more "America". No more "Freedom". Now it is all "trump" all the time!
Oh, please do it for good. I want Americans to remember for decades who they allowed to handle their economy and nuclear codes. Please rename your Constitution and the Bible, too, so your representatives pledge their loyalty on the name of Trump.
Can Google fix this?
Iran says 7 oil tankers attacked in the Strait of Hormuz as fears grow of a return to war
Sometimes the smarter move is to continue giving a fool the rope he's asking for...
In this case, I think Google should absolutely humor him, but say an EO is needed to make it happen.
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.
Here's a userscript that renames Trump on every website you visit into a random humorous insult
Why not rename Earth to Trump ?
Maybe they could rename it for maps served to the MAC address that matches Trump's personal phone.
He's gotta be fucking with us. Nobody can be that daft. He has to know all that shit will be removed once we get rid of his ilk.
Are we sure about that though? Did the Patriot Act get removed once Bush was done? Opposition politicians might be watering at the mouth over these new uncontested powers.
There’s a difference between between a law that passed congress and was signed by the president and an executive order/personal request from the president.
Do you really think the current democrats are going to get rid of any of this shit? They didn’t even undo any of his toxic appointments from his first term. As soon as he’s out of power they’ll be like “we have to respect his legacy to ensure a smooth transition of power blah blah blah.” None of this shit is ever getting changed back
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.
Google said no
