It's one of those "shithole" states he doesn't acknowledge
yup, like Puerto Rico
Do not disparage Puerto Rico by calling it a state.
Isn't that Harlan's razor?
Hanlon's razor, interesting, yes, can apply to trump, he is a stupid idiot
New Mexico has an actual constitution, as well as three whole branches of government, who have the official say on what is called. The Gulf of Mexico just has some fish and oil rigs.
We just assume these things are meaningless, but has anyone stopped to ask the fish if they have a constitution!?
:P
i imagine they have a judiciary system, what with all those scales
Huehuehue
And has anyone asked the fish how they feel about all this?
Gulf of Mexico has oil rigs, why wouldn't the US be obsessed with it?
Because changing a state's whole name would have to go through that state's legislative process, not federal?
Meanwhile Denali is on federal land within Alaska. And idk. He doesn't really give a fuck about consistency or rational thought from one move to the next.
I now return to my news media detox for the next week or so...
Because it doesn't spark outrage. Outrage is the swiss army knife of the new fascists. It's distracting us from all the horrific shit they are doing, we're overwhelmed with rapid insane information so we can't focus on what they just did, and it allows them to subtilty shift "normal" their direction; thus all opposition must be "radical".
Why does an idiot idiot?
We'll probably never know.
I'm guessing it's because it's easier to do stupid stuff than actual hard work and stupid people that like him also like doing stupid stuff more than hard work.
New Mexico is already part of the US. It's not really the name, it's the expansionist intention.
He's going to annex as much territory as he can without weapons before declaring war.
Why do we call it New York ? Or New Hampshire ?
We should make it Yorkerest or Hampshirer to show them Brits!
Do you mean Big York and New Hamberger?
Newest England
Can we also call the White House "The United States of America Corrupt Fascist Oligarch Headquarters"?
Done.
You can always try to rename it on Google maps, but I suggest something simpler. Perhaps "Funny house" or "Cuckoo's nest".
Fascist Camp would do
Everyone forgets that New Mexico exists
I dont think the gulf of Mexico has voters that live there and can object
Just like with everything else, it's easier and he's fat lazy piece of shit.
yesterday I learned that trump is 78yo, like, why US people vote for a person that could be senile and should be... retired? xd
because he's never heard of new mexico
Because the Gulf of Mexico has oil?
Because USA spilled it there?
Boom!
It's the Sea of Japan all over again!
We already have the latter.
listen, consort trump fully knows what a gulf is~
he plays it with the best people.
just remember to replace 'america' with 'trump' every time he says it and things start to get winning.
also anything renaming is easy accomplishment to his belt.
