Sorry for the tangent, but: this area is still known as the Gulf of Mexico. A deluded clown pretends otherwise, but that doesn’t make it reality for the rest of the world. Every time someone repeats this, it solidifies in people’s minds, along with the other alternative facts and propaganda. This cannot be left standing without commentary.

Thanks for the clarification. I was wondering what’s supposed to be in place of the "Gulf of Mexico".

> A deluded clown pretends otherwise

Was just trying to be funny, but point taken. Will refrain from that one going forwards.

No, don't refrain. I got the joke and think we could use more.

You can get down or up voted either direction for any politically adjacent puns.

But karma points have no cash value, so whatev.

"The Gulf formerly known as Mexico" is a bit of a mouthful.

So like Prince back in the nineties, perhaps it should have a symbol. Maybe ⌂ ?
