Why even entertain it? Just completely ignore Trump and don't even acknowledge it, that's the best retaliation you can have, that will piss him off the most.

Canada should announce that they've changed the names of all the Great Lakes to Canadian names, like Lake Toronto, and Lake Ottawa. Make sure there's a Lake Saskatchewan, because there is no way Trump can read or pronounce it, so that will really piss him off. Maybe he'll painfully stroke out and croak, and we can all read about it the Big Beautiful Obituary.

Nah, give this stupidity no attention. Trump can scribble whatever he wants on maps printed in the US, with his presidential crayon set. We have more important things to talk about at the adults' table.

That accepts that Trump has the right to do it by using the same tactics, you realize.

Rename Lake Michigan as Lake Shawinigan. Tell them we'll change it back after giving Trump a handshake.

The Orange Turd and the whithouse have shown for all the world, they hate indigenous people and have no respect for them. The Indians named it long before the white man came. MAGA racists as always.

Mention it once, stand tall, and move on. All the news coverage wasted on this is frustrating. Pull a Tod Maffin and put up Canadian small business features in that time instead.
