- ryandvm 2y agoHonestly, this would be the funniest possible outcome.
- Sparyjerry 2y agoThat's actually hilarious, but America also stands for North America and South America. Gulf of The United States doesn't quite ring the same.
- oneeyedpigeon 2y agoI saw a "Gulf of the Americas" suggestion which makes the second-most sense, after not changing it at all.

- lolinder 2y agoThis is a nice interpretation of it, and maybe if this sticks we can reinterpret it that way, but this is coming from the guy who coined MAGA, the title of the order is "RESTORING NAMES THAT HONOR AMERICAN GREATNESS", and the text makes it very clear that it's about the US: > It is in the national interest to promote the extraordinary heritage of our Nation and ensure future generations of American citizens celebrate the legacy of our American heroes. ... in recognition of this flourishing economic resource and its critical importance to our Nation’s economy and its people, I am directing that it officially be renamed the Gulf of America.
