What controversial change did President Trump make regarding the Gulf of Mexico through an executive order?
President Trump issued an executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the 'Gulf of America.' According to Yamiche Alcindor's report on Meet the Press, Trump refused to let the Associated Press back in unless they adopted this new terminology in their reporting. This decision was particularly contentious given that the body of water has been known as the Gulf of Mexico for several hundred years. This renaming appears to be part of Trump's broader confrontational approach to media relations and policy implementation, occurring amid discussions about Russia-Ukraine tensions.
