Let's rename Montezuma's Revenge to Trump's Revenge while we are at it.

Mexicogolfen is pretty good.
-
As an American I have to second this. Please don't fall in line to lick trump's boot
-
Just like I never called french fries freedom fries, I will never call the gulf of mexico the gulf of america

If he is just going to make executive order to change shit he doesn’t like and not follow the law. Who says I have to follow them too? Still the Gulf of Mexico to me!

name:en: Gulf of Mexicostupid_name:en-US-confederate-bootlicker: Gulf of Amerikkka
That should suffice.

Oh thank god it was just a joke
for now
-
Comes down to the language/data of the user I guess
-
New Mexico? You mean "South America", right?
(Everything south of the Rio Grande is now "Mexico". Except for the
PanamaAmerica canal.) -
I'm hoping that my comment doesn't age like milk

Fun fact, per the executive order, the whole body isn't being renamed the Gulf of America, only the "U.S. Continental Shelf area bounded on the northeast, north, and northwest by the States of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida and extending to the seaward boundary with Mexico and Cuba". That is, less than the northern half, as indicated in this map: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:US_ECS_Regions_2023.png

Gul;f of Musk

Next month:
- Texas -> Roof Tiles
- El Paso -> The Pass
- The Alamo -> The Poplar
- Santa Fe -> Holy Faith
- Nevada -> Snowed
- Colorado -> Red
- Palo Alto -> High Stick
- Nogales -> Walnuts
- Los Angeles -> The Angels
…
Paper companies would make a killing profit this period.
-
But you couldn't tell, could you.
I'm keeping this joke alive as long as I can, until Trump gets wind of it and actually does it.
