Its just not how languages work.
We were so close to not having to deal with his bullshit a second time but nobody wants to put in the range time to do it right.
Omg I just laughed so hard, thank you. I needed that.
This ongoing obsession of his is a huge W for the “America is the continent, not the country” folks. By the time we’re through with all this, no-one is gonna want to use the name America for anything. America? I don’t know her; I live in the EU (los estados unidos) thank you.
Disparos Unidos.
In Spanish Estados Unidos is abbreviated EE.UU.
Right but I speak English
Well you write Estados Unidos which is Spanish but put EU and unnecessarily explain what it stands for instead of just abbreviating it correctly in the first place (or not at all)
Double the letters, double the gooder
Dude is so dumb, at least we can change them back later.
It’ll be like cleaning up after a 4-year-long bender. Probably find puke in just as many weird places too.
I propose that all the other countries in the world rename USA The United Mistakes of America, or maybe just Dumbfuckland.
In my neck of the woods, some people call it ‘The Land of the Idiot’ (in english and all)
In Spanish, some people call it “Disparos Unidos” (United Shots; “shots” as in gun shots). For reference, in Spanish the name is “Estados Unidos”, so they sound very similar.
Pacific could be renamed to Ocean of the Warmongering Pedofile.
I would like to petition Canada to rename Lake Michigan to Lake Epstein.
Who can we get to rename something to Mar-a-rapes-children?
Let me guess…big stretch here…“The American Ocean” and “The Freedom Ocean”?
epsteinlantic ocean and EPSTEINFICIC OCEAN.
If a German ever tries to explain the meaning of the word Fremdscham to you, this is it.
Funnily, all uses of “America” for the whole continent (including the north) are misinterpretations of the original map drawn by Mr Waldseemüller, who invented the name “America” in the first and used it for Brazil.
On the same map some designation for the northern part of the continent can also be found, stating that it was a province discovered by the command of the king of Castille:

So, the only logical step will be to name North-America as “New Castille” from now on, to correct for the screw-up of the post-Waldseemüller map-reading-noobs.
I used to do this for almost my entire life. The orange todler made clean up my act and say US and people of the US instead of America and Americans.
Does he know America was named after and Eye-talian?
I rename the toilet in my home that often clogs, the trump toilet and casino.
Soon he will rename the whole continent to just “America”.
America of America
The USA has given “America” a negative connotation
Yeah but you already know people from the USA don’t consider the rest of the Americas “America”
People from Canada don’t either. I don’t know anyone that would call themselves an American.
He should totally do it.
At that point, it’ll become clear that maps that hold to the new US standard are going to a) have to be constantly changed, and b) will become increasingly useless.
Then everyone who actually cares about geography can just commit to buying maps that adhere to different standards. I’d say Canadian map standards or European map standards but I bet there are plenty of academic map standards still in the US that refuse to engage in Trump’s whimsy, no matter how official it might be.
