Trump says Google's CEO rejected his plan to change the Atlantic's name to the 'Trump Ocean'
"No, no, no. This time I'm not doing it," Trump said Google boss Sundar Pichai told him when he asked to rename the Atlantic Ocean.
President Donald Trump proposed renaming the Atlantic Ocean to the Trump Ocean during a rally in South Carolina, only to be turned down by Google CEO Sundar Pichai. Trump had previously ordered the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario to the Gulf of America and Lake America, respectively. At the rally, Trump spoke to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, praising the company and its co-founder, Sergey Brin, before asking him if Google could handle changing the name of the Atlantic Ocean.
According to Trump, Pichai declined, stating that oceans cover many countries and it would be too challenging. Trump then stated that he would likely pass on the idea, concluding that the Atlantic Ocean should remain unchanged. Google has not yet commented on the matter.
