All of that NOBEL-WORTHY DEAL MAKIN' made Rapin' Grampy FORGET THE NAME OF THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.

In a call with Fox & Friends on Tuesday, President Donald Trump discussed at length his ongoing efforts to end the war in Ukraine ± and then appeared to forget the name of Earth’s largest body of water.

Trump was asked by Fox News’ Lawrence Jones about the several European leaders who attended Trump’s meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Monday, and whether they had said anything to Trump in private.

“They're very good people, they're very good leaders of their countries and they want to get back to leading their countries,” Trump said of the European leaders, which included French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, among others.

“They're consumed far more with this than we are because they're right there. You know we have an ocean that’s separating us, right? A thing called… an ocean. A big, beautiful ocean. And, uh, they don't, they're right there. So it's a different kind of a thing for them.”

Explanation from the article.

Russia's east coast and the state of Alaska are separated by the Bering Strait, which is part of the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific separates it from the U.S. mainland.
