Trump Missed an Opportunity. He Needs New Material.

by Rod Williams, August 28, 2026- What is wrong with Trump? He lacks imagination. He is getting stale. He needs new material. He is doing reruns. 

The Gulf of Mexico he renamed the Gulf of America. That was a good punchline one time. To do the same material but apply it to a lake seems kind of tired, lazy, and lame.

Instead of renaming Lake Ontario, Lake America, he should go big and name it "Lake Trump. That would really show those annoying Canadians who won't get in line, surrender their sovereignty, and apply to become the 51st state. That would even annoy all Americans not loyal to Trump, even more than naming it Lake America.

We know Trump likes his name on everything from Bibles to sneakers, so why did he not propose naming Lake Ontario, Lake Trump?

I even think he could do even better than that. Why go halfway? While renaming Lake Ontario, Lake Trump, while he is at it, he could have renamed all the Great Lakes. They could be Lake Trump I, Lake Trump II, Lake Trump III, Lake Trump IV, and Lake Trump V. 

Well, that may confuse some of his supporters, so maybe Lake Trump 1, Lake Trump 2, Lake Trump 3, and so on.  

Of course, he could even top that. How about Lake Donald, Lake Eric, Lake Tiffany, Lake Ivanka, and Lake Barron?
