So, I think originally, they went from: The Gulf of We Gave Ourselves Permission to Destroy the environment Unchecked, but it was too exclusive, so in order to be more diverse, they chanced it to, The Gulf of We Gave Ourselves Permission to Destroy EVERYTHING Unchecked.

Now, they could have stopped here, but because of their penchant for wasting everyone’s time and money by doing things that do nothing, they knew they needed to spend more time being ineffectively inept.

So it was then that it was decided to change it to The Gulf of We Don’t Give a Shit and by the Way, Mexico Never Paid for our Border Wall, so This is What They Get! Fuck Your Feelings Lib- only they realized that aside from the “fuck your feelings” bit, these options would be too confusing for their base to understand- and would also prove difficult to say with a slack-jaw.

Sooooo, they finally decided to shorten it to something that would encompass the ideology of all of these names combined:

The Gulf of America.
