Your post is pretty childish.

You say all that as though Mexico has ever been cooperative. They have invaded our country and you want to treat them gently. I do not!

My post offered a detailed argument.

Your response offers nothing.

You’re right about the childish attitude, yours.

We should have invaded Mexico long ago and corrected their corruption problem.

Many places have different names depending on where you are.
Is it the Rio Bravo or Rio Grande?

Is it the Persian Gulf or the Gulf of Arabia?

Is it the North China Sea or the Sea of Japan?

IMHO I would have changed it till The Gulf of the Americas... changed Columbus day to Amerigo Vespucci Day, and removed the Laticia James statue with a sizable Amerigo Vespucci statue in NYC.

“Some Freepers will respond, “We don’t need Mexico’s cooperation — We can FORCE them to do our bidding!”

Cooporation is why the Monroe Doctrine exists... that and the easily swayed indigenous populations and colonials that inhabited the Americas when the doctrine was promulgated.

The Aztecs, who sacrificed humans, called themselves the Mexika.

When I got through with you, you would make a video in tears apologizing for what you just stated and telling others not to do the same. I will go to my grave maintaining that position. I am sick and tired of the world expecting us to kneel to them. I am married to the culture, so I do understand their mindset. Set a severe example and the rest shut up.

Mexico used to control most of the land touching the Gulf of America. We took it away from them and we control most of the land touching the Gulf of America. Take it back, or be quiet.

We didn’t take anything on the Gulf from Mexico.

hypocrite, the left has been removing statues and removing products for years now for all kinds of reasons. You didn’t have a problem with it then. Now you are crying like a little child. Your President Trump is giving them and you the same. It is what we elected him to do. It is past time to take the language back.

Avoid this nonsense. Everything north of the Tropic of Cancer is Gulf of America. Everything south, call it whatever TF you want to call it.

How about calling it “Land of the Losers”?

There’s practical reasons to name change and allow drilling and exploration in the Gulf of America..

So, any restrictions on any exploration or drilling or energy production in the ‘Gulf of Mexico ‘ by the Swamp is now dead..

Obliteration of the Deep State and draining the Swamp won’t be for everybody.

And btw, Mexico isn’t the problem President Trump is facing with deportations,

It’s that same Swamp and Deep State you’ve been voting for making things difficult..

Adios.
