Trump Asked Google To Rename Atlantic Ocean ‘Trump Ocean’
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).

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.
May need it so you know wtf someone's talking about when talking to a Trump supporter and they're talking about the Golf von Amerika, formerly known as Rabbit von Amerika
The Slumlord Sea
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his deployment of national guard has been rules as unlawful, a shit ton of people are finding out their citizenship has been revoked, hormuz is a fucking mess, oil prices spiked again, they’re trying to make it actively illegal and punishable by law to medically treat non-citizens, they just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
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
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!
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.
If he had his wits with him he'd pick the biggest ocean. Not #2.
Eagerly waiting for the Happy Meal cholesterol to do its thing. I have a tattoo planned for once it happens
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.
Google didn't say anything
Trump claimed Sundar said things, and you implicitly trust him
What made you assume Trump is telling the truth accurately? What in his political career gave you that trust in him?
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 should tariff the internet.
To be fair, that’s what Trump says Google said. Even odds the entire conversation only happened in his mind.
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
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.
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.
Declared you say?
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.
Sounds like the behaviour of a very public rapist
Unlike gulfes or lakes.
Yeah, but that's just Mexico and Canada, and who cares about them?? /s
I don't hate many people.
But I absolutely hate this motherfucker.
He earned it!
Facts.
Fuck off, Krasnov.
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
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.
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
Sigh
Can we please put an adult in charge?
The Republicans: Sure which one? Hegseth? Vance?
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.
The man wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico to downgrade his sex trafficing to domestic.
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.
pedo troll say what
Let’s rename Google to “Complicit”
Is anyone paying attention anymore?
Not enough people
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.
Newsweek isn't a reliable source, in particular not as a single source. Be wary.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/oct/22/trump-atlantic-ocean-rename-google
Reliable or not, the Orange himself bragged about it few days ago
... I am yelling at people to do their due diligence, not doubt fact.
Using outlets that report non factually when they do will build trust for when they misinform.
Good on you for being aware of and caring about such things and for spreading the word about it! Keep fightin' the good fight! :)
I would argue he is also very much not a reliable source, but your point is taken, and in today's world it's becoming increasingly difficult to know what a reliable source even means.
Oh, he only occasionally tells truth, but this one sounded real and in line with his delusions.
This article only describes the literal words of the President
"The Atlantic borders other countries"???
And the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario don't...?
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".
Still don't understand why it's called the Iran War and not the Trump war.
So as not to distract from the Trump Files.
'Trumping' already means 'breaking wind' in the uk.
For real? If so, DAMN.
Look the UK has its flaws but they are on point with this.
I think he should get one thing named after him.
A solitary confinement cell at USP Marion can be renamed the Trump Pit.
"Womp womp wommmmmp"
(Sad Trump-pit noises)
What a pathetic human. I wonder if he's ever even touched the Atlantic.
Oh that's not satire. That's fucking hilarious
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.
Damn, I didn't know Mexico had its own kind of golf.
The game is played exactly the same, it’s just that the grass of the golf course is sepia-coloured rather than green.
And there's more beer. And everyone wears much less ridiculous hats.
That's Loke Ontario to you,, buddy.
Oh that's nothing. Wait until he "renames" earth to "trump" or some dumbass shit.
There are far too many people who would enthusiastically go along with that.
There's something wrong with a lot of people where they just really want to submit to the group and its authority figure.
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.
Maybe they could rename it for maps served to the MAC address that matches Trump's personal phone.
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 🤞
There's a life outside GAFAM's ecosystem.
It's not an easy path, but it's possible.
CoMaps is great!
sometimes comaps does not give me the data i need and for that i have an additional osm webapp. but its still neat
For sure, it's a to go to lol in the box
Next he will rename China to America 2.
I'd propose "mainland Taiwan"
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"?
surely he would rename it to District of Trump. Washington, DT.
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 had to look it up, "District of Columbia", I just thought it was "District City", like New York City but with district for some reasons.... yeah...
Trump doesn't like DAs, though.
c/notTheOnion
Google said no
Well, supposedly they said "please don't ask us to do that," according to one of his speeches.
No more "America". No more "Freedom". Now it is all "trump" all the time!
You are hiv trump.
:-D
D-:
I'm typing this from my trump phone on my trump mattress using my trump internet connection from the city trump, state trump.
Keeping up with me?
ignorant self centered fuck only deserves his name on a headstone
We call it the EPSTEIN OCEAN ,deep and dark
Also the probable location of the Epstein files when they are "released".
Hahahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahahaha!
We will be doing so much winning you may get tired of all this winning! 🫲🍊🫱
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.
Give him one of these and when he hits the maps app it's straight up Trump World.
Ima ask goggle to rename a turd a Trump
You'll be pleased to learn trump already means fart.
checks out. You've got my vote.
Kind of okay with the lost city of Trumpis.
Seeing him avoid going to the UK because Trump going transtrumpic.
Can Google fix this?
Iran says 7 oil tankers attacked in the Strait of Hormuz as fears grow of a return to war
U.S. Diesel Prices: $6.28 as of October 19, 2026
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.
"Gaza is now renamed New Isreal." - President Newsome
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
ok good nuance indeed
It's a fascist strategy of ratcheting up obedience.
Why not rename Earth to Trump ?
Instead of Ohio?
Renaming something on one of the most popular globes in the world IS effectively renaming it and the fact some of you think God is naming things and can’t be undermined is a real problem in your thinking.
Toddler-in-Chief
Can we ask Google to rename the United States of America to something to do with Trump?!
United Scammers and Assholes
Only the people of his own country don't see this old fellow is delusional and unfit for office.
The normal people here see it clearly and are horrified. The conservatives are the ones who don't see or don't care. They love all of it except the gas prices. In fact, many conservatives are mad he's not more authoritarian and violent.
Conservatives were promised blood and they won't be satisfied until they have it. Our civil war was never properly finished. We allowed many of the traitors to live and now we have concentration camps because of it. The traitors need to be properly dealt with.
