Trump says he asked Google CEO to rename Atlantic Ocean to American Ocean or Trump Ocean on Maps. That's what happens when you bow to a bully once.

🇺🇸 Donald #Trump revealed how, after a phone call with Google CEO Sundar Pichai, he decided not to rename the Atlantic Ocean: I called Google Maps to change the name of the Atlantic Ocean to Trump Ocean. Sundar replied, "No, no, no. I won't do that this time." He said, "Oceans are different things, sir. They encompass many countries. Please don't ask us to do that." So, we'll probably decline. Let's just leave it as the Atlantic Ocean.

— ‘Donald Trump said Google rejected his request to rename the Atlantic Ocean after himself or America.
Speaking at a rally in South Carolina on Wednesday, the president said he had called Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, to ask whether the company could “handle” his proposal.
“I only like two oceans: the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. I’m not going to put either Trump or America on any other ocean but these two …”
According to Trump, Pichai rejected the latest proposal. Trump described the Google CEO’s response by saying, “No, no, no. This time I’m not doing it … Oceans are different, sir. They cover … a lot of countries. Please don’t ask us to do that.”
“So I’ll probably pass. Should I pass it?” Trump said, adding: “I think let’s keep it the Atlantic Ocean.”’

#Trump wanted to rename the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean after himself He stated he only likes those two oceans and seriously considered renaming the Atlantic, calling Google Maps CEO Sundar Pichai. However, Pichai refused, explaining that oceans involve too many countries and requested Trump not ask for such a change. Trump ultimately agreed to leave it as the Atlantic Ocean.
