President-elect Donald Trump announced his plans to rename the “Gulf of Mexico” to the “Gulf of America” in a press conference this morning at Mar-a-Lago.

“We are going be changing — the the opposite of Biden closing everything up and getting rid of 50 to 60 trillion worth of assets — we’ll be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the gulf of America, which has a beautiful ring,” he said.

“That covers a lot of territory, The Gulf of America. What a beautiful name. It is appropriate. It’s appropriate.”

“And Mexico has to stop allowing millions of people to pour into our country.”

This led into Trump commenting that the U.S. has a large trade deficit with both Mexico and Canada.

In November, Trump threatened to impose tariffs on products from Canada and Mexico if the two nations don’t stop what he called the flow of drugs and migrants across their borders.

He said he would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the U.S. from Canada and Mexico as one of his first executive orders.

He has also threatened to carry out mass deportations of undocumented migrants, accusing them of increasing crime in the country.

Shortly after the press conference, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., took to X to back Trump’s vision.

“President Trump’s second term is off to a GREAT start,” she wrote.

“I’ll be introducing legislation ASAP to officially change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to its rightful name, the Gulf of America!”

Public response has been mixed, with some X users supporting the idea, others rallying against it, and even more questioning if it is even within Trump’s powers to rename the Gulf.

“Can he actually do it?” one user wrote.

Alabama is one of several states that has shoreline on the Gulf of Mexico.
