Trump reveals two places he won’t rename Amanda Greenwood
The two places are the Hudson River and the Mississippi River. Trump said this at a Saturday evening rally in Clarksville, Tennessee, where he also said he wants to rename an ocean and a river before he leaves office in 2028.
- Hudson: He credited Henry Hudson, the English explorer it's named for, with doing a good job sailing up it long ago.
- Mississippi: He pointed to his strong electoral results in the state as the reason to leave the name alone.
- What's next: He floated renaming either the Atlantic or the Pacific, with "Trump Ocean" or "Ocean of the Americas" as possibilities. He hasn't chosen between the two oceans, and no river has been picked yet.

This follows his earlier renamings. Early in his second term he rebranded the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, and this year he changed Lake Ontario to Lake America after a Canada-US trade deal collapsed at the last minute.
I couldn't find an article under Amanda Greenwood's byline. These details come from Mediaite, Yahoo, and Newsweek coverage of the rally.
If you wanted something specific from this, such as a summary, background on the earlier renamings, or a look at the reaction, tell me and I'll dig in.
