Whatever. I'm going to keep calling it the Gulf of Mexico no matter what. And Hitler Trump can shove it up his giant pus-oozing orange craphole. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

It's about the only geographical feature outside the states that a MAGA supporter will be able to identify, but to the rest of the planet it will remain the gulf of Mexico.

If it were up to Drump, the whole world would be America. I can't stand him.

I think it's Gulf of America in the US and on US maps and officially Gulf of Mexico in the rest of the world.

I guess this is a good time to bring up the question of whether or not official and legitimate are synonyms.

The Trump regime can make a name change official, but whether or not it's considered legitimate is an additional, separate question. What gives diktats of the Trump regime any legitimacy whatsoever?

If Trump turns Mexico into part of America, at least we will no longer hear him rant about illegal Mexican immigrants sneaking into America :wink:

I wonder how many Americans could correctly label these bodies of water around America? On a map with no names.
Gulf of America
Gulf of Alaska
Caribbean Sea
Hudson Bay
Gulf of California

His base will demand they expel the illegals from America's new territory (aka ethnically cleanse Mexico of it's population).

Official to who? Trump supporting oligarchs going along with Trump's idiocy doesn't make it official.

What does the UN call it?

I'm in Europe and I see it as: Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)

Anyway, those using Chrome can fix it by using an extension:
