House Dem's 'Lake Natalie' jab at Trump aide sets social media ablaze: 'Stay classy'

A House Democrat's jab at one of President Donald Trump's most loyal aides prompted a firestorm on social media.

Rep.

Debbie Dingell, D-Mich., is getting heat from the right and praise from the left after she quipped about Trump's decision to rename Lake Ontario.

"Let’s just call it Lake Natalie so we know you’ll start protecting our Great Lakes," she wrote on X.

Trump signed an order on Thursday renaming one of the five Great Lakes "Lake America" amid an ongoing trade dispute with Canada.

HOUSE DEM DEBBIE DINGELL PLACES TRUMP'S LAKE ONTARIO NAME CHANGE IN THE CROSSHAIRS Dingell's comment appears to be aimed at Trump aide Natalie Harp, a close confidante of the president, whom Democrats have seized on after she was reportedly one of the small group of people who joined Trump on a separate plane after a potential Iranian plot to take down Air Force One.

The comment has prompted fierce backlash from Trump allies who accuse Democrats of unfairly targeting a White House aide trying to do her job — a sentiment that was on full display online this week.

You don't care about protecting women from sexism/misogyny.

You just care if they have an R behind their name," GOP commentator Melik Abdul wrote on X.
