A Better Name than “Gulf of America”

President Donald Trump has decided to rename the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America.” I kinda like the old name, not because I’m a fan of what Mexico is. I’m just an old dog set in his ways.

Mexicans are a good people stuck with a very corrupt government. That’s been the case forever, unfortunately. The latest chapter in this story of corruption is the cartels, which are really paramilitary outfits melded with crime mobs. The cartels are the devil’s spawn. They peddle drugs — fentanyl is a cheap, easy to smuggle, and potent killer. They traffic in children and women. That’s mostly sex slavery. That’s hellish depravity. Cartel gangsters will kill anyone who even looks at them crosswise.

Mexican cartels buy politicians or intimidate or kill the honest ones. The cartels control the U.S.-Mexican border. Biden’s handlers didn’t seem to care. They were in bend over and take it mode. Their aim was to flood the nation with millions of illegals. They succeeded. Among those hordes are gangbangers, cartel soldiers, child molesters, murderers, rapists, drug peddlers, the diseased, enemy nation saboteurs… the list goes on.

President Trump just signed executive order designating the cartels terrorist organizations means that the U.S. can take the gloves off, meaning that the U.S. military can weigh in. Me, I’d set special forces lose on the cartels and wipe them off the face of the earth. I’d demand a treaty from the Mexicans giving the U.S. right to operate a couple of miles past the border. That would be a no-go zone for any cartel desperadoes who weren’t eliminated in earlier sweeps.

I believe President Trump has something like I’ve outlined in mind. Yes, Trump will double down on building the Wall, but a wall does only so much. High tech surveillance and weaponry does so much. Knocking out the cartels needs to be a critical part of the mix.

So, what does this have to do with the Gulf of Mexico America? If Trump succeeds in securing the border, walloping the cartels, and removing millions of illegals, then he deserves the Gulf named for him.

Let there be a future “Gulf of Trump.”
