Yeah, the Erie Canal is affectionately (?) known as “Clinton’s Ditch”. There are Clinton toponyms all along the Erie’s course. ---

> [@Frodo](#): > > Obama Avenue would sting harder I think. > If the current mood in Canada allows for naming streets for people from the USA. Yes, nothing wrong with that. Montreal has an “Avenue de President Kennedy,” for example; and in the years after WWII, a mountain near Banff was renamed “Mount Eisenhower.” That latter one didn’t stick over time, but to your point; yes, things in Canada can be named for Americans. ---

Isn’t the whole point of naming it Clinton to get the orange shitstain seeth with rage, because it is HILLARY, no two questions about it? ---

Well, he’s going to do that either way. It’d just be even better to have him stew about it whether you lied to him with some plausible story. I mean, they could tell him they named it after George Clinton from Funkadelic. He’d still stew about it because he’d know in his rotten little heart that you probably changed the name because you’d be switching Bill and Hillary’s name out for his. ---

Morgan’s another one the Brits can keep, though sadly I think he’s got dual citizenship and being an immense asshole isn’t grounds enough for rescinding it. ---

If Morgan got deported to Eswatini I would definitely have concerns. Not about him, mind you. Probably about what I was going to make for dinner that night. Morgan likes to have horrible people on his show so he can pretend to have the moral high ground. Of course, by doing so he’s platforming them (ISTR Milo Y was a proponent of pederasty) so he just ends up sinking into the swamp with them. ---
