      I’m not going to be paying attention to any of it. Fascism 101. But the fascist scum have apparently “won” so here we are.

      America is a write-off. Let the filth destroy it.

        Cool, then don’t.

        Why hang around and tell people to stop caring?

        If you want to stop caring, just do it. But that’s clearly not what’s happening.

          I was merely pointing out that flooding the citizens with insane bullshit is fascism 101 and that’s exactly what the tangerine toddler and his band of filthy fucking nazis will be doing 24/7 for the next (hopefully) 4 years.

          Nothing we can do about it except watch some Mario Brothers in the meantime.

            That is an opinion.

            And it’s fine if it’s yours, but why are you going around trying to convince people?

            If you’re right, it doesn’t matter. If you’re wrong, you’re helping trump.

            But in either case, just go watch your Mario Brothers, that’s what you said you wanted to do, so just go do it. No one is stopping you, you’re choosing not to right now.

    I’m only surprised he didn’t demand it be called the Gulf of Trump.

      You’re not wrong… especially since he feels the need to plaster his name on everything. But don’t give him ideas…

      On that note, can we collectively change “trump card” to being a bad thing?

    Why is he thinking so small? Why not rename the Pacific Ocean to American Ocean? China and Japan have seas and India has an Ocean.

      The Atlantic Ocean belongs to Atlanta. To make it sound more like how it’s pronounced by the locals, we’ll rename it the A-lan-nic Ocean.

      Man, I know English. I know some Spanish, high school drop out level, and I have some “real world” experience from working in a hotel… but man, I don’t think I can change languages on the fly.

      We won’t. That’s true enough. For tradition alone we won’t; Just like we don’t change to the metric system.

      But it’s not exactly stupid. There are several countries and two continents that surround The Gulf. It’s not unreasonable to name it after both the continents that make it. I’m not even sure how it became named after just a single country anyway.

      Really it’s just another stupid fucking distraction that shouldn’t get any attention from any of us.

        Let me tell you about the Persian gulf and the South China Sea.

        When the gulf was named by European explorers in the 1580s, Mexico (as a region colonized by Spain) was the most important thing in the main land. Some Spanish maps from the same time period also called it Gulf of New Spain.

        Not quite, the gulf is entirely contained within North America and borders the US, Mexico, and Cuba.

        Once you go around the Yucatan Peninsula, you’re no longer in the gulf, you’re in the Yucatan Channel and then the Yucatan Basin portion of the Caribbean Sea.

        But you’re right in that it’s not exactly stupid, just eyeballing it, it looks like the US has more square miles on the gulf than Mexico does.
