"I said, 'Sundar, I'm thinking of the Atlantic Ocean. Can you handle it?'

"'No, no, no, this time I'm not doing it,' he said, 'Oceans are different, sir. They cover a lot of - really a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that.'"

The US president later said he would "probably pass" and keep the name Atlantic, before saying, "We're going to call it the American Ocean".

    Totally unrelated: toddlers test adults boundaries. Once the adult give up on a boundary, that is a given and they would put a tantrum if they don’t keep in getting their way.

    What it’s worse is that they will move to the next boundary and repeat the same.

    In general I would say for toddler is better to set clear and firm boundaries so that a lot of tantrum and screaming are saved.

    But what was the article about, again?

    There's this, lusting over Republican candidate asses, and bragging about finding a giraffe in a kid's drawing.

    1. No one around him is able to give him a filter to not say dumb shit that makes him look bad.
    2. Like 2020 election, he can't lie his way about corruption/destruction of America (Covid management was bad) promising to undo it. So he has to talk about "nothing".

    Flexing on the world, for no gain, does show how cowardly and sycophantic that world is and continues to be. It's still late stage empire behaviour and collapse acceleration.

    Personally, I think not. I think he's just trolling and rage baiting with the name changes. Also some distracting.

    But that doesn't mean he's immune to counter trolling. Not that I think Lemmy is even on his radar, so it's more imaginary counter trolling.

    All americans, listen. I can not stress this enough but your presidunce is one of the dumbest pieces of meat based scum that's ever lived AND you are all being judged by what that wobbling orange obese child rapist's actions.
    And will be for at least a generation.

    JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! The only way you will ever, ever claw back any respect is if you kill or forcibly remove that fucking disgusting shitgoblin. FUCK!
