I know it's pointless, but there were 5000 deaths during the American phase of construction and they were almost all foreigners under contract. Not that it's at all relevant because of course he cares nothing for facts.Continued (from transcript of inaugural address)
"...A short time from now, we are going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. And we will restore the name of a great president, William McKinley, to Mount McKinley, where it should be and where it belongs.
President McKinley made our country very rich, through tariffs and through talent. He was a natural businessman and gave Teddy Roosevelt the money for many of the great things he did, including the Panama Canal, which has foolishly been given to the country of Panama after the United States.
The United States — I mean, think of this — spent more money than ever spent on a project before and lost 38,000 lives in the building of the Panama Canal. We have been treated very badly from this foolish gift that should have never been made. And Panama’s promise to us has been broken. The purpose of our deal and the spirit of our treaty has been totally violated.
American ships are being severely overcharged and not treated fairly in any way, shape, or form. And that includes the United States Navy. And above all, China is operating the Panama Canal, and we didn’t give it to China, we gave it to Panama. And we’re taking it back.
... The United States will once again consider itself a growing nation, one that increases our wealth, expands our territory, builds our cities, raises our expectations and carries our flag into new and beautiful horizons. And we will pursue our manifest destiny into the stars, launching American astronauts to plant the stars and stripes on the planet Mars.
... In recent years our nation has suffered greatly. But we are going to bring it back and make it great again, greater than ever before. We will be a nation like no other, full of compassion, courage and exceptionalism. Our power will stop all wars and bring a new spirit of unity to a world that has been angry, violent and totally unpredictable.
America will be respected again and admired again, including by people of religion, faith and good will. We will be prosperous, we will be proud, we will be strong and we will win like never before. ..."
On our own maps, sure, but can't really dictate it to anyone else (unless they make it a requirement that you rename the Gulf of Mexico in order to get US foreign aid, I guess).It's not up to the USA what an international body of water is called, is it?
You forget what a devastating impact "freedom fries" had on the French...It's not up to the USA what an international body of water is called, is it?
It is not.It's not up to the USA what an international body of water is called, is it?
Hmmm. So one cannot change their mind?Then he's still a liar correct?
It's just a symbolic gesture that appeals to his base. Seems kinda... I dunno... woke.It's not up to the USA what an international body of water is called, is it?
The bible has been promising doomsday and the end of times for millennia. Do you remind the preachers that this sounds foolish each Sunday?These types of comments will look foolish when doomsday never arrives.
Just because you define the term incorrectly, we will give you a break in thinking that the fight for equal rights of marginalized groups will be over under drump.Thankfully those woke days are over. At least for the next 4 years.
If that happens and/or the shit hits the fan with the economy and corruption or just general stupidity and incompetence then I fully expect that most of his fan club posting here will vanish overnight.Just because you define the term incorrectly, we will give you a break in thinking that the fight for equal rights of marginalized groups will be over under drump.
Maybe we just him for the piece of shit he is when he starts to really go after those groups with his executive orders and the SCOTUS in his back pocket.
What is wrong with you?Then he's still a liar correct?
Yep, the next 4 years won’t be woke but instead 4 years of asleep at the wheel.Thankfully those woke days are over. At least for the next 4 years.
Post saved for when doomsday arrives, or when the economy implodes, or when working-class Americans are financially worse off in four years, or when the next pandemic hits because vaccines have been deemed unnecessary, or when...These types of comments will look foolish when doomsday never arrives.

Saw it eight years ago. Didn't care enough to watch it again.No comments on his speech? Personally, while I liked some of the things he said, that wasn't the place to carry out a state of the union speech. It looked bad and wasn't very dignified or presidential. Of course those things don't really apply to trump much. He must be the worst public speaker to ever be potus.
And Change Florida to America’s swinging dick.Why stop at the Gulf of Mexico? Maybe he could sign a decree changing the Atlantic Ocean to the Trump Ocean.
Cubans?
