WASHINGTON — President Trump doesn’t just want to make waves; he wants to own the waves.
The president tested the waters on the possibility of renaming both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans after himself during a rally on Saturday, marking his latest attempt to make his mark on the map.
“We’ve got the Gulf, we’ve got a beautiful lake, and now someone said ‘you need a river,’ so, I don’t wanna change the name of the Hudson River,” Trump mused during the rally in Clarksville, Tenn. “Henry Hudson, he did a good job sailing up that sucker a long time ago.
“So, we need a river; we need an ocean,” he went on. “So, I was thinking of either the Atlantic or the Pacific. We call it Trump Ocean or Ocean of the Americans, something like that.
“No, before I get out, I think we should have an ocean, and we need a great river. Now, I’m not changing the name of the Mississippi. I love Mississippi. We won that state by so much.”
Already, Trump has moved to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America” and Lake Ontario as “Lake America,” the latter of which came in retaliation over trade tensions with Canada.
Some of those began as apparent jokes and then Trump later signed executive orders to implement those changes.
Trump has also floated the idea of renaming the state of New Mexico as “New America” and the Strait of Hormuz as the “Trump Strait.” So far, he hasn’t followed through on those.

Master Troll, he is. Lets just refer to ourselves as the United States of Trump!
Trump Moon and Mars of Trump .LOL
Change the name of the Chicago River to the Trump River. It already flows past the gorgeous Trump Tower.
I’m more concerned that, if he doesn’t keep his mouth shut between now and the mid-terms, that the Democrats will rename one of them the Impeachment Ocean.
I love it when he trolls the left
While they are busy running around with their hair on fire over this they are *NOT* doing other evil stuff

That’s one way to see it.
He’s laser focused on the issues that will matter to voters in november.
The guy needs to get a dog.
He needs to stop with the small stuff. Just rename “Earth” and declare the third planet from the sun is the planet “Trump”!
Planet Trump
Which is way overdue.
Something George W. Bush, Mitt Romeny or Paul Ryan will never do.
It doesn’t matter how absurd some of his comments are, the Lame Stream Media and the libdems completely fall for it...ROFLMAO!!!!!!!

Some people comment that Trump should concentrate more the country’s problems than on stuff like this...
Well, it probably took Trump all of 30 seconds to come with his trolling comment, yet the liberal Lame Stream Media and libdem’s will spend hours and even days slamming this hilarious comment Trump has made....

The Babylon Bee is infuriated, as they were in the process of writing the very same thing.
Yeah this throw away troll line has consumed upward of 30 Seconds of his time and attention.
I wish he would stop with this crap.
