He can call it the gulf of America if he wants. No one will know what he is talking about and no one will call if that. Kind of like National Airport.


Where is the national airport?


National airport was renamed Reagan National as airport.

How does trump plan to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico when half is under Mexican control? Mexico's new female president, Claudia Sheinbaum, ain't gonna take no guff from trump!


It has been named Reagan National for many years and everyone calls it National airport.


I have never heard it referred to as “national airport”, only “Reagan Airport”.

But I’m not a fossil, so that might be the problem here.


Maybe not a fossil, but definitely stupid.


Nobody normal calls it Reagan. People try to put that traumatic presidency behind them.

Or something he doesn't want us to know about
Or so his horrible cabinet picks all sail through while everyone else is focused on Greenland et al.

This kind of stuff-- Gulf of America, Greenland, Panama Canal--is probably just an effort to deflect attention from his Cabinet picks, or pehaps something else. "Lookie over there" is a game Trump is very good at playing.

Not even that strategic. He’s a narcissist and lives for attention. Like a toddler, he’s learned that saying outrageous things gets him that attention, and better yet drives liberals crazy. Best just to ignore him until he actually proposes a realistic policy (likely never).

Mexico’s president rejected several of President-elect Donald J. Trump’s assertions about her country and even joked that the United States should be called “Mexican America” after Mr. Trump said the Gulf of Mexico should be renamed the Gulf of America.

I don’t think this is the case. He is extraordinarily simple snd has never had a remotely complex thought.

I think that’s exactly what he wants to do, and I think he will do it. All of it. Nobody will stop him. Nobody ever stops him.
