Is it true that Trump was so hot to rename it because there are permanent laws in place prohibiting drilling for oil in the "Gulf of Mexico"?  If so, brilliant!

This is the rumor, no idea if there is any truth to it.

That would be the strategy of a genius.

It is wonderful to have a president of the United States that thinks our greatness depends on renaming a body of water minding its own business off our coast

Just wondering if you think he just spoke the words "we're changing the name to The Gulf Of America" and that was it as if there were nothing formal attached to it?

The U.S. can call the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America all we want but this does not mean other countries are obliged to follow suit. Google Maps changed the Gulf of Mexico's name to the Gulf of America but only when using the app in the United States.

In the meantime, the price of services and good in the U.S. continues to increase. Interestingly enough several items and services I pay for increased this month anywhere from 10-30%.

1. Google maps doesn't sign EO's but they complied with it and it doesn't seem other countries aren't really complaining about it.

2. No one ever said it wouldn't hurt for awhile but you can bet it won't hurt for long....unless you live in California where gas has been rising steadily  since January 1 when Newsoms tax theft policy of .65 per gallon kicked in.

If it weren't for the long overdue renaming of the Gulf of Mexico America I'd probably be much more upset that my gas and grocery bill went up this month.  Yes, winning.  Another big win is that if I ever wake up and want to identify as a parakeet, I'm shit out of luck.  Guess I'm stuck being a male for the rest of my life.  More winning!

Since inflation was non-existent during Biden's/Kamala's term in office, it's crazy that the majority of Americans voted for Trump.

What was the point of you saying Google does not sign EO's? Google changed the name because it is consistent with their longstanding practices, or at least that is what they claim. They also said it only changes the name in America. In Mexico it remains the Gulf of Mexico as it has been called for the past 400 years. At least one other country has voiced disapproval of the change. This being Mexico. Several other countries, including the UK have stated they will continue to call it the Gulf of Mexico.   

You guy Trump said he would lower food prices on day one. If he did not mean this, he should not have promised it. Anyway, people who believed him are gullible idiots. It will not hurt for long because you and some other folks have become completely accustomed to being lied to by Trump.

Is it not true that in 2018 57% of voters defeated the repeal of California's proposition 6 which would have halted these gas tax increases in your state?

Can you link us your posts complaining about price increases under Obamas third term?

Can you link us your posts complaining about price increases under Obamas third term?

Not sure if I can or not or if I'm going to search through all my posts to do so but I've never denied shit got expensive.  I'm certain I've said while shit got expensive here, it paled in comparison to the rest of the developed world.  I'm not denying some of the Biden spending didn't contribute to it but everyone almost to a person on the right denies the other mitigating factors.  Covid, supply chain, price gouging.  Just off the top of my head.  Finally, I wasn't exactly complaining just casting my line to see who would bite.  My money was on you.   

Also, unlike the right, I never rooted for any of my presidents to fail and continue to not root for Trump to fail.  I believe the country and world at large are going to be in a dark place 2 years from now but I would love to come on here and admit that I was wrong. 

I thought you'd be happy that your guy is in office fixing things.  I can understand that the Biden Derangement Syndrome is going to linger for a bit, but come on dude.  Obama Derangement Syndrome?  Still?  You're better than that.

I also never want to see a president fail, it's all of our country, we should all want to see the president and the country succeed.

Great, now it's the gulf of biden.

[Grape Ape]

I, for one, did not expect prices to drop within the first few weeks of the new administration.

I was unaware of any available economic levers or policy changes that would cause this to happen in such a short time, or be beneficial in the long run.

He is making immediate impact where there is immediate impact to be made.

Other things will take more time.

Yes it is true.  Biden signed an order to prevent further drilling in the Gulf of America.
