Mexico's president tells Trump it's the U.S. that should be renamed in jab at 'Gulf of America' plans

Daily Mail

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum launched a scathing dig at Donald Trump on Wednesday in response to his plan to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to 'Gulf of America.'

Sheinbaum dramatically unveiled a map dating back to the 1600s which showed an early designation of North America with the title 'America Mexicana' in giant letters.

And she said a document dating from 1814, that preceded Mexico's constitution, referred that way to the area that now includes the United States.

'Mexican America, that sounds nice, no?' she said sarcastically, pointing to a massive image of the 17th Century map behind her. 'He talked about name, we too are talking about the name.'

She made her comments during her daily press briefing in Mexico City, one day after Trump announced he wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico.

'We'll be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, which has a beautiful ring,' Trump told reporters in Florida.

'That covers a lot of territory. The Gulf of America. What a beautiful name. It is appropriate,' he insisted.

All of this stuff is just Trump having fun and shaking up the status quo and making Liberal heads explode as a bonus.
Mexico wants America Mexicana, Canada is calling on Northern States to defect to them, this stuff is hilarious.

Exactly. That the commie Sheinbaum is pitching a hissy fit makes it even funnier.

No, no ... man ... come on ... she was just playing into the joke, just like Canada annexing Minnesota.
All these leaders are just playing off each other for fun.

The thing that is not a joke is the Panama Canal. That is a very serious issue.
