Ah, yet another Superior which isn't, Trump friendly maybe, but no that wouldn't be fair to the water. Interesting
how in decades of non mention things slip from recall, but are not lost from memory. In this case the word
Mackinac itself definitely rang a long lost bell. And, now that you mention
it, the Huron-Michigan one lake does too ..

And yet again the idea that north is up, and/so superior, raises its dodgy head.

Lake Superior
Early explorers gave various names to the lake, the first being “Grand Lac.” Father Marquette called it “Lac Superior De Tracy." Longfellow, in his poem “Hiawatha," says the Chippewa Indians called it “Gitchee Gumee." The French explorers called it “Superior”, because it is above or higher than the chain of lakes. Regardless of how the name originated, Lake Superior is the greatest Great Lake--the largest freshwater lake in the world by surface area and the third largest by volume.

Area
Superior is not only on the border of the vast inland sea, Lake Superior, but it is bounded by three bays and two rivers: St. Louis Bay, Superior Bay, Allouez Bay, and the St. Louis and Nemadji Rivers.

Incorporation
City of Superior was founded November 6, 1854, and was incorporated March 25, 1889, and “Where Sail Meets Rail” became the City’s slogan some years later.

As one observes Superior, the first impression is of the supreme beauty of its situation. Second are the immense possibilities for commerce and industry.

The approximate population of Superior is 27,224 and the area consists of 45 square miles. The altitude is 601.6 feet above sea level.

Just heard, as expected, SCOTUS went the damningly dangerous official vs unofficial presidential duties
route, opening the possibility of dictatorial-type action and or criminal acts being seen as a presidential duty:
