  "account": "During a campaign event in Mississippi, US President Donald Trump reiterated his intention to rename the Atlantic Ocean as the American Ocean. Despite Google CEO Sundar Pichai expressing reluctance to the idea, Trump persisted in his proposal, suggesting that Europe would be pleased with the change. At a previous rally in South Carolina, Trump mentioned that he had called Pichai, jokingly stating that Google was \"still rattled\" following the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. Google Maps had previously adopted the new names, but users outside the US continued to see the original labels in brackets. Trump later clarified that he had decided against renaming the Atlantic, stating, \"I think let's keep it the Atlantic Ocean.\" He also mentioned that he would not rename the Mississippi River, reassuring the Mississippi crowd.",
