One thing to note, with Gulf of Mexico he actually had Republicans pass a bill to do the change.
This one is an executive order. An executive order is what the name implies. It is not a law, but an order for executive agencies to follow. So while employees of agencies like FBI or IRS are instructed to call the lake as lake America, as far as the rest of the country is concerned the lake is still the Lake Ontario.
It’s clearly is a stunt to distract from the pedophilia and a failed war.
They don’t manually update that. They pull from the US Geological Survey Geographic Names Information System (USGS GNIS). That system got updated with the executive order.
The kinda yes is that they’re not legally obligated to use that data, like federal agencies are. They just use it for consistency for all users within the US, and for the fact that it’s freely available and the most detailed data for the entire US. The could have manually kept it the Gulf of Mexico, but they have a pretty consistent record of following whatever the federal government of a location does. At least Apple does, idk about Google as much though I imagine they’d do the same.
Then maybe the world should stop celebrating his “winning” and instead consistently point out he is a fraudster that should be either jailed or executed

No, the gulf was also only an executive order. There was a bill that passed the House, but the Senate never took it up.
Looks like I missed that, my bad. Thanks for correcting.
Ok, so what Google and Apple did was pure ass kissing.
Kinda yes, kinda no.

With the minor side effect of fucking with the economies and well being of the people in 2 countries…
Sure, but why should he care, he is making killing. Last year he made 4 billions that we know of.
Just to put in perspective, before he became president there was a lot of evidence that he wasn’t a billionaire as he claimed, now he definitively is.
