Trump branded ‘deeply pathetic’ after taking Sharpie to map to rename Lake Ontario

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleTrump signed an executive order renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America on Thursday (Getty)MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes has labeled President Trump "deeply pathetic" after the commander-in-chief signed an executive order to rename Lake Ontario as "Lake America". In a video shared on TikTok, Trump scribbled the new name over a map of the lake using a Sharpie, directing the Department of the Interior to update US maps. The renaming directive follows the collapse of US-Canada trade talks, which resulted in 50 percent tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods and Canada's retaliatory measures. Trump previously ordered the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America" and hinted at plans to rename the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Hayes criticized the president for focusing on landmark name changes, arguing that the American public wants cheaper petrol instead.
