President Trump says he wants to change the name of Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America"

[rightwinger]

Google says it did.

No — “Gulf of America” has not been accepted internationally.

What actually happened

• On January 20, 2025, Donald Trump signed Executive Order 14172, directing U.S. federal agencies to call the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America.”
• This means U.S. government agencies and some U.S. documents/maps may use “Gulf of America.”

International status

• Internationally, the body of water is still officially recognized as the Gulf of Mexico.
• Global organizations such as the International Hydrographic Organization and most countries have not adopted the new name.

Did Obama suck at a lot of things? Such as his attempt to overthrow our government?

I don't care. He's no longer President. Try to focus, we're talking about Trump.

?

I have explained when and how Obama tried to overthrow our government a number of times.

Both Obama and Biden used the justice department to persecute their enemies, including Trump. How does it feel to be on the other end of the stick asshole?

Accurate to the T. Obama got a report telling him Trump had nothing to do with Russia, so Obama called that not true and instructed the justice system to blame Trump for being a close friend to Russia.

Obamas goal was to overthrow the government.

It is not their gulf. Trump made it official.

Actually, we are discussing the name of the gulf bordering the southern states of the USA. It is the Gulf of America.

Just like TRUMP/jfk Center
Just because Trump slaps a name on something doesn’t make it official

Won’t outlast his Presidency

Good for you. You correctly confirmed that we're not here to whine about Obama! But I bet that won't stop you.

Remember when this was the big thing to argue about, and not multiple wars, threats to Greenland, continued Inflation, bouncing tariffs, and failure to release the Epstein Files?

Heh.. those were the days!

That was back when we thought Trump might be a fascist.

Was it fine with you to have our government overthrown? The Russia hoax, created by Obama.

Still??

I didn't vote for Obama. I didn't support Obama. Can you let that go and worry about the President we have now? He's currently the one ******* everything up. Did you vote for him???

Indeed. Same.

 

[marvin martian]

What does that have to do with Trump’s ‘F’ in geography?

I guarantee you ^^^this retard doesn't know Mexico is part of North America.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Changing the gulf's name seemed to me as senseless as Biden's renaming military bases, especially since Mexico has the longest coastline of any country it borders, plus the needless expense brought upon the tourism industry and others.

Only by 65 miles.

 

[Robert W]

I worry that the lies talked about him will assist the Democrats, did you think of that? I did vote for him and supported him through Obamas attempt to overthrow him and later Bidens attempt to put him in prison for decades. We need Trump. Do I like all of what he does? Not at all. What don't I like. His bragging. He needs to have others comment on his good things other than he can mention them briefly.

 

[dblack]

I worry that the lies talked about him will assist the Democrats, did you think of that?

No. Two-party politics are entirely dysfunctional. We need to ditch them.

I did vote for him ...

Then you are accountable for what he does.

 

[Robert W]

No. Two-party politics are entirely dysfunctional. We need to ditch them.

Then you are accountable for what he does.

So you are accountable for the persons you voted for?

Imagine your number of parties. Imagine needed things never get done. Trump demolishes regulations. I am all for that.

 

[dblack]

So you are accountable for the persons you voted for?

Yep.

Imagine your number of parties. Imagine needed things never get done. Trump demolishes regulations. I am all for that.

??? The way you think is really hard to follow.

 

[Robert W]

Yep.

??? The way you think is really hard to follow.

OK. for you, I will talk as if to a 12-year-old.
Trump loves us. Trump keeps removing regulations and restrictions. Trump wants this country freed.
