President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday afternoon to change the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America,” his latest escalation as he engages in a tense trade war with Canada.
“‘Lake of America’ was something I’ve been thinking about for a long time,” Trump said from the Oval Office. “We have a gulf and we have a lake. Now, all we need is an ocean. So, maybe we’ll have to change the name of the Atlantic and/or the Pacific. Maybe we’ll change them both.”
Surrounded by large maps of the Great Lakes, Trump said the name change was “effective immediately,” and that his staff had “filed all the necessary papers, documents, everything else.” A White House aide claimed the lake “has most of its volume in the United States” and that the “deepest parts” are in US territory.

Oh for fuck’s just sign an executive order to require everyone to call Trump the president with the biggest dick and let us be done with your phallus complex already. He is literally what happens when someone like Edward Tiny Balls Coristine becomes president; a double agent in every aspect, tons of self proclaimed sexual prowess and a phallic size complex.
He gets a lot done between diaper changes
Acronym to remember the Great Lakes used to be -
Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior: HOMES
Now with Trump it’s -
Superior, Huron, America, Michigan, Erie: SHAME
The United States has already failed. At this point it’s just waiting for a foreign adversary to push it over.
So instead of remembering the Great Lakes by HOMES, we’ll use SHAME. Fitting.
You know, this really isn’t fair to the other 160,000 lakes in the USA. Surely they all deserve to be known as “Lake America.”
“Senile old pedophile tries to rename stuff but nobody cares”
Unfortunately lots of sycophants will bend the knee and obey in advance.
Senile old person tries to rename a lake after his failure at a trade deal with longtime ally in a failed attempt at a win for his repeated failure at a war he started
“I can’t accomplish anything of substance so I’ll make idiotic stunts and hope my deluded supporters eat it up in Nov.”
Canada renames it sewage treatment plants to “Trump Ponds”
USA is a joke!
What a deplorably designed country that one person can do all this wasteful stuff. Way more wasted by this party than the fraud they like to point out in some places, and no peep on where it’s actually worse. It’s one part of the low-level thinking that high-control groups enforce, to keep people from asking questions and finding the evidence. For example that all the other rich countries pay much less for healthcare with better outcomes, get better worker benefits and satisfaction and all that makes healthier people than the usa system. It shows that they don’t want that for everyone, just them and theirs, the selfish tradition is strong!
It’s Lake Ontario, Gulf of Mexico.
He’s such a child.
Can we just have one day without deplorable yank news?
I live here and I need it more than you.
Give it a few years. Our news is as bipolar as it gets. It will be positive eventually.
If you want no yank news at all… Well I have some bad news if you speak English and love on earth.
The dumbest fucking timeline
Often described as ignorant, he changed over 300 Wadiyan words to “Aladeen,” including the words “positive” and “negative,” causing mass confusion.
Doctor: Do you want the Aladeen news or the Aladeen news?
Patient: The Aladeen news?
Doctor: You are HIV-Aladeen
Hey, remove that is= from the URL, it’s leaking your Google ID.
Also, change this setting so it stops leaking your ID whenever you share a link.
Done. Thank you so much!
i’ve been manually removing them, but for some reason I don’t seem to get the option like in the screenshot :/ urggg
It’s best to still manually remove them so you don’t leak tracking info. Google still sticks the tracking ID at the end, they just don’t show your name to the world if you have it disabled.
Also good to turn off the share ID setting just in case you forget.
I wonder if it’s a premium “feature”
ughhhh you’re probably right 🙃
That is effing amazing.
Who is this guy?
Go watch Schitt’s Creek right now
It’s from the movie. You should watch it, it’s great.
Which movie?
I always watch YT videos straight, never visit the site.
The Dictator

He’s one of my favorite actors. I loved his role in Outsourced. I know that show got some pushback for stereotypes, but for better or worse, he nailed it.
Be happy it’s not Trump Lake. He’s put his name on everything he can in this country. Just like a good dictator.
I love how he got minorly blocked from literally chiseling his name into the Kennedy Center, so now he’s talking about demoing the whole thing. True abuser mentality - if I can’t have it, nobody can have it.
I only just realized he renamed an airport after himself. Like, what the fuck did you do to deserve that?
He truly is envious of the authoritarians leaders in other countries.
I know people joke, but I truly hope he lives lot enough to see his legacy dismantled.
He lives close to it. That’s all. My wife wants to take a cruise. I told her I will drive 1000 miles before I fly into Trump Airport.
Fuck Trump. Fuck Florida. Fuck Florida voters. I’ll be honest sometimes I root for global warming to drown that useless fucking swamp under the waves.
/pardon my fucking French
Just tell yourself that at the same time this was happening, the smartest people working for the Canadian government were planning how to best sanction all the red and swing states to deliver the most hurt.
The irony is I’m in a blue city in a red state. At this point though I’m fine with it. I’ll survive on schadenfruede
I know he wants me to be pissed about this and he achieved his goal.
If this isn’t the phrase of the year I don’t know what is.
Not exactly. The dumbest timeline has each lake renamed to the Make America Great Again Lakes from left to right on the map.
