So Musk is just deliberately trolling for giggles.
It’s not even a funny joke, as the French don’t call it the English Channel anyway.

Well there should be no issues calling it the Gulf of America

Should the Mexicans rename the Gulf of California?

There aren't. Trump can call it the Gulf of Bigly Bobbins if he wants. The point is that no other country is going to do so.
It's something that he *can* do but which carried no weight and no point other than to shore up his support with the low IQ rednecks.

That name's already taken. It's the space between Trump's ears.

I hate to break your bubble but they are only changing it in the US in line with US Law. For the rest of the world it will be the Gulf of Mexico although there will be a note that is is known as the Gulf of America in the US. Same with Denali. They have been making adjustments for local government laws for years. :-

Explaining the different labels for the gulf in the US, Mexico and the rest of the word, Google added: “When official names vary between countries, Maps users see their official local name. Everyone in the rest of the world sees both names. That applies here too.”

If you want an example go search the Persian Gulf on Maps. You'll see Persian Gulf (Arabian Gulf). Same will happen for Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America). Unless you are in America at which point you will see Gulf of America (Gulf of Mexico).

Plus, unless the Donald becomes a lifetime dictator it'll change back in 4 years.

At least he's getting the big stuff done early.

To be fair, he's been asked to start his first concentration camp so...

This is likely to be sacrificed for the 3rd runway, as well as Harmondsworth and Sipson villages.

You may think that, but after a while, the name will be adopted worldwide.

But won't it be worth it when you see the bulldozers roll over Boris Johnson?

No. Not remotely.

That's not what the people on Twitter are saying.
