Can we pleast waste the next 4 years renaming things and get nothing practical done? That sounds like perfectly good mud to spin the tires in.

Let's not forget, conservatives, CEOs and all that bunch operate with methods of a parlor magician. The louder they jingle the keys in one hand, the more we should be paying attention to what they are doing with the other.

Which America? South America? North America? How can it be the gulf of the entire continent?

Moderates who "voted for the economy" right now: 🤡

This channel is going to be so busy the next 4 years. Oof.

Wait until he hears about Mexico not being named America either!

But then they bitch about China and their wrongdoings in the South China Sea

The media now see's it's job as shutting up and taking the bait, i see

Besides the absurdity of this, who gets to decide the name of a geographical feature?

If this were to actually happen wouldn’t it mean literally nothing? Like maybe officially in the USA it would be referred to by its new name but why would other countries follow? And I get that that the USA does a lot in the Gulf, but from my [very basic] understanding most of it is international waters.

Could legislation be proposed to rename the Atlantic Ocean? And if so wouldn’t that just end up with the USA following strange semantics other countries don’t?

Invade Mexico, invade greenland, rename the gulf..... hello... he's bonkers, what the fuck are we doing letting this shit back in power....

And I declare the US to be "South Canada"

Fucking THEATER

It's Freedom Fries & W ketchup all over again...

Damn. Boomer politicians scraping the bottom of the barrel so hard now we're stealing from China's playbook? "It's not Cuba, it's American Taipei."

But Mexico has 63 more miles of coastline on the Gulf than the USA does. We should just leave it alone.

Wouldn't surprise me if this was inspired to circumvent the new ban on oil drilling Biden just enacted. "We're drilling in the Gulf of America, not the Gulf of Mexico."

I wonder how long it will be before the white house issues a 9 dash line Trump has hastily marked up with a red permanent marker.

Fine. I’m calling it Gulf of the Americas and reminding everyone that the Americas are the continents, not the country.
A visionary and inclusive move!

I hope he doesn't hear about the Gulf of California. He is not going to understand that the Californias were Mexican and, thus, the Gulf is still named after the fact. He's going to claim some wacky s*it like "the name indicates it belongs to one of our states", "Mexicans are trying to steal California's assets", or something like that.
