Donald Trump has proposed renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, sources have confirmed.
This bold move, part of a broader “America First on the Map” initiative, seeks to stamp a more patriotic name on the vast body of water bordered by the U.S., Mexico, and Cuba. Trump announced his plan at a recent rally, declaring, “It’s high time our great gulf reflected the greatness of America, not just Mexico!”
Critics argue that the change overlooks geography and history, but supporters cheer it as a branding masterstroke. “Why stop at walls when you can rename oceans?” joked one supporter, as strategists hinted this could be the first of many renamings aimed at making American geography great again.
The proposal has sent cartographers scrambling to revise maps and sparked a lively debate on social media over which body of water is next. “If you look at it right, even the Atlantic has a certain American ring to it,” Trump mused.
As of press time, Mexican officials had reportedly begun referring to the Rio Grande as the “Rio Freedom,” signaling a potential new trend in geographic tit-for-tats.
