I think that Trump renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America is pointless and stupid.

Wanna know what else I think is dumb?

The fact left-wingers are triggered about this after they spent the last decade plus renaming sports teams, public schools and universities, streets and highways, food and condiment brands, and redefining half the dictionary altogether.

Here’s a list of some in case you forgot:

• Washington Redskins >> Commanders

• Cleveland Indians >> Guardians

• Stanford Indians >> Cardinals

• Loudoun County Raiders >> Captains

• Edmonton Eskimos >> Elks

• Columbus Day >> Indigenous Peoples’ Day

• Lee–Jackson Day >> eliminated

• Robert E. Lee High School >> John Lewis High

• Jefferson Davis Highway >> Richmond Highway

• Mount McKinley >> Denali

• Fort Bragg >> Fort Liberty

• Fort Hood >> Fort Cavazos

• Boy Scouts of America >> Scouting America

• Aunt Jemima >> Pearl Milling Company

• Uncle Ben’s Rice >> Ben’s Original

• Eskimo Pie ice cream bars >> Edy’s Pie

• Land O’Lakes >> removed the Indian, but kept the land

• Illegal alien >> undocumented worker

• Hispanic >> Latinx (a term Hispanics did not want and do not use)

• Mother >> birthing person

• Anchor baby >> child of noncitizens

• black >> Black

• Breastfeeding >> chest feeding

• Inmate / prisoner / convict / felon >> justice-involved person

• Ex-con / ex-felon >> returning citizen

• “Gender” as a biological fact interchangeable with “sex” to being a social construct

• Fat >> plus-sized

• Master bedroom >> primary bedroom

• Manhole >> utility hole

And so on and so on. . .
