Denali or McKinley? Falklands or Malvinas? Etc, etc., etc. Wouldn't be the first time a geographic feature had multiple names depending on the political POV.

Mexico doesn't own it, either.

Considering the Continent names are North, Central and South America, the name acually is a better fit.

“America” ≠ United States, but yeah, it’s a joke.

Central America isn't a continent. It's a subregion of the North American continent.

Yes, it's a joke/nonserious intentionally provocative statement.

But Trump's immediate following statement of "We're going to change because we do most of the work there and it's ours" made it clear that he was specifically referring to it as "The Gulf of [the United States of] America". Not "The Gulf of [The Continents of North and South] America".

Your primary concern should be that you can't recognize a joke when you hear it.

Only Trump haters would get their panties in a twist over something like this. If you have a problem with President Trump, TOUGH SHIT.

He'll make a deal with them to stop illegal immigration and narcotics, then he allows them to keep the naming rights and a player to be named later.

And the Panamanians declined a meeting to discuss giving back the canal. Hilarious. Watch out Greenland we’re coming. Seriously, relax.

As for the gulf: 1680 mi US vs 1743 mi Mexican… it’s close. Maybe invade Mexico while we’re at it.

OP took the bait. Set the hook.

BTW, it ain't exactly unprecedented:

The Sea of Galilee = Lake Tiberias = Lake Gennesaret.

Calvary = Golgotha.

It's been going on since Biblical times.

Spoiler alert, we ain’t gonna annex Canada either…

Now Greenland?








What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???

Why not Greenland? It is in a strategic location, approximately halfway between the US and Russia. We have had an Air Force (now Space Force) base there for decades. It has deposits of oil and important metals.
