Official Trump EO Thread- Gulf of America

French Jesuits mapped the Gulf of Mexico, “Golphe da Mexique” in 1672 in an expedition lead by Father Jacques Marquette.

Has absolutely nothing to do with the United States. Whole world will ignore his EO.

So it's a picture thread now?

And before that it had a different name. I'm sure the natives called it something else. And where I live in Texas used to be called Mexico. Your point is ridiculous.
 
ive seen Karankawas refer to it as golfo de nueva espana , but im guessing after spainairds already wiped out oter indians , nobody cares about frenc monks so maybe we can find out wat Caddos called it
 
I'm no Trump cheerleader, but this is awesome. We already have started to refer to the west coast of our state as the Gulf of America in our house.
 
If it is meaningless, it would not have ruffled your feathers.
It's not meaningless in the fact that it's a complete waste of time and effort and has no significance at all, which is why it's annoying. How about other things that matter a lot more than what we call a body of water (which has had that name for hundreds of years). I really don't care what it's called, Gulf of Taint for all I care, but the whole thing is just petty showmanship... think Idiocracy.

To be fair, Mexico is part of America. Doesn't have to have anything to do with the United States (another country on the American Continent.)
 
This is a meaningless idiotic distraction.

It certainly is, but at the same time, he's trying to counter China's "new century" with his own version of a new American Golden Age. And honestly, I don't find anything wrong with the theme and drive behind that. It is a bit cheesy, and there are other real things I wish he'd focus on but this is what he's about. Hate him or love him, while he isn't "one of us" he's the only one to entertain the common American and be bluntly honest to them, more or less. And his followers love him for it.

I don't really care what the body of water to the south U.S. is called, and things change names all of the time. I don't think there's anything sacred about the Gulf of Mexico or a Gulf of America. But he's trying to get everything repainted with the red, white, and blue after years of self-hate in this country.

Funny you say this, Mexicans and South Americans have griped before about not being considered "American" even though they are from a continental perspective. I'm going to guess that goes out the window the next four years...

Ok. Then lets go around the world renaming centuries old geography.
Because.
 
Its going to make biology really hard to teach accurately.

Exactly! This will eventually lead to "biologists" trying to say that only mammals have mammary glands without even taking into consideration how a reptile identifies.
