Someone forgot about the GuLf Of AmErIcA already
I didn't forget, but I'm pretty sure Trump has. I don't think he's talked about it in quite a while. I've never heard anybody actually call it the Gulf of America, and I live in the Deep South. I'm not sure it's even used by the departments in the executive branch. This will probably be a similar situation.
I see it on maps sometimes (fucking Google being Google), so it irritates me whenever I run across it
Didn't forget. Name never changed
Except that it was for over 300 million people
