Summary

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum criticized Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America.”

Sheinbaum stated that while Trump can refer to the American part of the body of water as the Gulf of America, the rest of the world will continue to refer to it as the Gulf of Mexico.

Trump signed the order on Jan. 20, 2025, following his inaugural promise, citing the Gulf’s importance to the U.S. economy. Sheinbaum emphasized Mexico’s stance on territorial integrity.

This follows Trump’s recent controversial foreign policy ideas, including proposing Canada as a U.S. state, acquiring Greenland, and considering military action to reclaim the Panama Canal.

    Retardo Mr. T didn’t pay attention in school because his dady paid for it. Otherwise he would know the definition of a gulf (not golf), and that it doesn’t imply possession.

    What, is he goanna rename NewMexico to NewAmerica? Cuz that is something he could try. Maybe California should be now called Smokyfirefornia? Cali is from “caliente” or hot. But California is not just hot, its on fire! Oh but is we must keep it Spanish… Humofuegornia. Just bringing up a few examples of more logical changes within his abuse of power.

    Maybe Florida could go by “sharknadoida” or Hurricorida. Texas would an easy change to California, it’s fucking hot there. Alabama could be Notobama or just Racistama.

    Just examples. I could name Mexico like Druxico. But I got no jurismydicktion there.

      No, Spanish has been banned. From now on, Los Angeles shall be known as The Angels, Las Vegas as The Meadows, Florida as Blossomed, Nevada as Snowfall…

          Everyone at UCSD…now they live near The Jewel. And the racists in El Cajon, you guys win! Now you live in " The Box".

          National City, you keep your name, well done!

          But you Chulavista…now you’re CuteView, enjoy!

          And San Ysidro…now you’re Saint Ysidro unless they want a different take like Saint Javalin. That’s a manly name.

          And the SantaFe station… Now is the Saint Faith station! Yey!

          San Diego… Now you will go by Saint Diego… Again if that’s where Big T wants to go…maybe just “Richasscity”? Or maybe move the city so they can expand the airport? Super important airport Lindberg always blocked by high rise buildings that take away from its importance.
