'Surprise to Mexico': Trump Renames Gulf of Mexico to 'Gulf of America' mid-flight on Air Force One

In a historic and controversial move, President Donald Trump signed a proclamation aboard Air Force One, officially renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America." The signing took place mid-flight as Air Force One crossed over the newly renamed waters.

Trump also declared February 9 as "Gulf of America Day," urging Americans to recognize the gulf’s significance in U.S. history.

While the name change applies to federal references, other nations are not required to acknowledge it.

This bold decision has sparked major debate—what do you think?
