U.S. President Donald Trump has drawn attention with his remarks about the Gulf of Mexico. He made ironic and joking comments about changing the name of this geographical area, and his statements have caused public resonance.
The editorial office reports that U.S. President Donald Trump initially stated he wanted to name the Gulf of Mexico “Trump Gulf,” but abandoned the idea, thinking it could lead to dangerous consequences. He said, “I wanted to call it ‘Trump Gulf,’ but I thought if I did, I might get killed.”
Donald Trump later noted that this was a joke, emphasizing that changing the gulf's name was not actually planned. However, he added that the phrase “Trump Gulf” sounds good and stated, “Maybe it can be done, it’s not too late.”
Despite U.S. President Donald Trump stating that these remarks were not political in nature, the statement has sparked widespread discussion on social media and in the media, receiving various reactions.
