That’s the line they use to absolve themselves of responsibility. They have the ability to override it and do so routinely. That’s why it shows as Lake Ontario in Canada and elsewhere. Same for the Gulf of Mexico. It’s a choice. They chose to display an inaccurate name to stroke a rapist’s ego.

They could wait until the change was actually approved by the country's formal government mechanisms rather than the unilateral wish casting of a wannabe dictator. They're making a human choice to not do that.

They will lick his ass in no time.

"to serve the interests of one man and his goons...."

Stay strong, Tim Apple!

As of right this second it’s still Ontario on Apple Maps. I hope they don’t

What a great way to address the affordability crisis. Or the #ClimateCrisis. Or the growing inequality.

Still getting dark comedy vibes from them painting the exploding costs of trumpty dumpty’s war in green so that it looks positive.

Canada owns over half the lake. If Apple changes the name, the CND waters still need to show Lake Ontario. If they do screw with it, we are changing the US name to GofckyourselfTrump&urapedio.

"I'm sure we may" is a funny deflection

I’m thinking about how fucked up it is that the main priority for the President of the United States is to obsess about the name of a lake.

I can assure apple that will hurt their bottom line in Canada quicker than a pissed off moose. I had everything google gone in a flash , love MapQuest and my new email. We are tired of watching the US and their companies capitulate to that felon. Pull it together!

Can’t speak to corporate owners about prices, but this bullshit is of course imperative.

Why didn’t she ask him how much this would cost??? I thought MAGAs were all about cutting government spending and waste?

… Whelp … that didn’t take long 😣

He’s also going to rename Depends to a thong .

Glad he’s solving the pressing issues of our day. Maybe next change the word war to peace and solve that problem.

The smallest lake. What a fool.

People were worried that Trump would just write checks to everyone this fall to buy their votes and this is what he actually does instead.

„I am sure we may be” 😂

Oh yeah, making a change to Lake America as presidential priority is such a needed change...it helped out with the cost of gas and groceries big time 🤪🖕 It's Lake Ontario. Period.

This name change is going to be more expensive than Y2K.

"I'm sure we may" -- certainty about uncertainty?

Thank God he’s focused

DC creatures and campaign lifers really never should stop feeling embarrassed about losing to this fucking clown.

This is so embarrassing for everyone involved. These companies that go along with it should be first in line for investigations in antitrust, corruption, and campaign finance violations

No surprise that Google/ Alphabet ever ready to obey Trump. We will not forget.

Fucking Authoritarian bullshit !

I guess "reached out" in the same sense that he reached out to Venezuela about oil?

After he’s reached out to you shove it up your ass.

The Secretary of the Interior taking time away from his real job of protecting public lands. Or, in Trumpworld, making them more profitable for the chosen ones.

Focusing on the key issues impacting this country 🙃

Do they not realize what a burn the "...in he US" phrase on the lower third is? We'll make the crazy guy feel good, but the rest of the world sees the trusth.

As always, POTUS is focused on the real pressing issues facing everyday Americans.

Laser focused on the things Americans really care about.

But you know, gas is $4/gallon, increasing inflation, military in shambles, everyone is struggling but changing the name of a lake on an app is priority number one for these losers.

How fucking pathetic…

"I'm sure we may" is a meaningless utterance.

To Burgum:

My, how quickly Google went from "do no evil" to sucking evil's nasty little mushroom dick!

Fortunately, Tim Apple is retiring today and a new guy is taking over who may not have gotten the memo in the handover.

They did it.

“Nice tariff exception you have there. Would be a shame if you didn’t rename Lake Ontario to Lake America.”

Why are we letting the fascists win?

The only time they will mention 'science' 👁️

Google should be ashamed of. I will never buy another Apple product or Google product. This is infantile. And they call themselves smart.

Tim Apple? 🤡 bsky.app/profile/midd...

On behalf of a nation of pathetic idiots.

EOs have no legal authority. They are essentially, loud suggestions.

I’ll take “Things That Were Already Just Fine” for $500

We shouldn't stop at renaming Lake Ontario. Doug Burgum should be renamed Obsequious Maggot.

They literally only care about vanity projects and destruction, their only policy now is blame the commies, rename everything.

Every town in Canada should rename their garbage dump to "The Donald J. Trump Memorial Garbage Dump" and post pictures on the intertubes.

I think we need to change the Mississippi River to the North/South River.

Fuck youuuuuuu.

He doesn’t want to discuss that graphic behind him.

I'm getting tired of hearing the right saying. Well gas was over $5 under Biden. And inflation was 9%. Which is due to Ukraine and Russia. And post-pandemic supply chain issues. And inflation was a combination of multiple reasons. And some dumb decisions. Okay alot of dumb decisions

Just really showcasing how they are prioritizing the American people.

Hey Siri, also change Niagara Falls to Natalie Falls

FOX ENTERTAINMENT

Laser-focused on the real issues, these guys are.

Within a few weeks it will change bsky.app/profile/mcmi...

Priorities.

Narrator: They called up and threatened Google.

Google can go to hell.

Not distracting anymore.

He’s so desperate

Mr. Burgum, GFY.

Ok. Just another list item to be reversed at the first opportunity.

One sure fire way to make sure I never buy another Apple product.

Still prioritizing inanities. Cool, cool…we’re cool.

One name on one side of the border and a stupid Trump bs on the other side of the border. Will he remain the Pacific and Atlantic oceans next?

That is from Google Maps, which we know already capitulated.

I’m still showing “Ontario,” so far…

That’s not Apple Maps. None of their tile sets look like this. Still Lake Ontario as of rn.

It’ll change within a few weeks. It’s automatic. No human is involved.

While the picture still currently reads Lake Ontario, tapping the lake yields a place name of Lake America

Okay - so how does that play out with the Boundary Waters Treaty Agreement between Canada and USA. Will USA take full responsibility for lake water safety? What about our Canadian shores? What about flow into the St Lawrence River? Interesting that orange clown claims he is a ‘builder’.

The follow up question is, why does this matter and how does it help American consumers deal with the increasing cost of living? /s

Got rid of Google Maps during gulf stunt. But yes, please ridicule anyone who even remotely supports the melon Mussolini.

My Apple Maps still say Lake Ontario

When you do the stupidest thing and have to beg corporations to play along to save face🙄

So it’s not only, as some were hyperventilating over, “it changes due to some API to federal data” but “call from the White House”. I can delete Maps also.

✅

Apple needs to return the Gulf of Mexico to its rightful name.

Reached out directly means a bribe was offered or a threat was made. Apple caves. Trump controls Apple. Boycott 🍎

Apple: Um, we sell stuff in Canada.

Is Apple in the room with us now, Doug?

What an embarrassment to the world!

In the spirit of the moment, I have renamed all my cats’ turds “Schlumpy Lumps.”

This is completely bullshit,apple better not

Could I call Tim Apple to change Lake Erie to Lake Epstein?

Nah, it's still Lake Ontario

I’ve already deleted the Google Maps app but if Apple would like me to delete their app as well, go for it. Mapquest has an app now.

He’s resigning as CEO this week, so it remains to be seen if he has any fucks left to give.

Ffs! 🤦‍♀️

Priorities. Remember when the republicans freaked out because the Biden administration contacted social media and asked them to take COVID misinformation down? I feel like this has a similar feel with the government jawboning a corporation but where are the upset republicans?

SMFH

The child-like and performative renaming of Lake Ontario is an indictment of the low intelligence of the Trump administration and everyone who thinks they are getting journalistic reporting of current events from Fox News.

The Goon Squad bloviating about its fascist gooning is not the vote-getter that "Top Goon" Burgum thinks it is...

Why, in the name of anything real and good are we putting up with this complete waste of time, money, and resources in this clown car, Keystone Kops, Three Stooges, Titan Submersible of a Laffy Taffy crash dummy conference of fools?

I'm just stuck on "I'm sure we may be" phrasing. He really doesn't hear himself, does he.

The United States has no legitimate government. The White House is illegally occupied by a criminal insurrectionist.

These pricks are too stupid to be humiliated.

bsky.app/profile/diap...

So fucking reassuring that a government official is spending even one second of his paid time pursuing this utter fuckery.

it's weird isn't it....

One thing we know is the presidency is "temporary" meaning Something that exists or is used for a short period before ending or changing.

More likely Apple will donate another $10 Million to his ballroom and he will rename it to “iLake America”
