Delusional LMAO.

This is not good obviously, but it's also very US-centric to think that name Gulf of America indicates it belongs to the US. In an alternate timeline it would totally make sense to have a gulf between two Americas called the Gulf of America or even the American Sea. But the US has effectively hijacked the name America

America isn't even the countries name, it's "The United States OF America" with North America being the continent it's on.

I feel like it's not great to say "Congress is already prepping" instead of "Marjorie Taylor Greene is prepping legistlation"

Fine, then we gotta spend the money to care for the natural life there as if it were ours.

Oh you don't want to spend the money? Figures, you cheapskate "conservatives".

I guess "Bumpkin Bay" is a little too on the nose.

Or maybe "Gulf Of Florida Man."

I hope he doesn't hear about the Gulf of California. He is not going to understand that the Californias were Mexican and, thus, the Gulf is still named after the fact. He's going to claim some wacky s*it like "the name indicates it belongs to one of our states", "Mexicans are trying to steal California's assets", or something like that.
