A video from the inauguration ceremony shows Hilary Clinton burst out laughing in his seat when Donald Trump announced his plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico and Alaskar’s Mount Denali from his inauguration stage. Hillary also shook her head when Donald Trump talked about the Panama Canal that Trump wants to bring back under US control.
In the viral video, as Hillary Clinton could be seen laughing, Bill Clinton turned toward her while Kamala Harris, Doug Emhoff, Joe Biden were sitting without showing any expression.
Renaming of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America
As announced earlier, Donald Trump Monday said the Gulf of America will be rechristened as the Gulf of America, and Denali, the highest mountain in North America will again become Mount McKinley. These two renamings is to honor “American greatness”, the draft order said.
“We’re going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, which has a beautiful ring that covers a lot of territory, the Gulf of America,” Trump earlier said. “What a beautiful name. And it’s appropriate. It’s appropriate. And Mexico has to stop allowing millions of people to pour into our country.”
The Gulf of Mexico is one of the largest and most important bodies of water in North America. It’s the ninth-largest body of water in the world and covers some 600,000 square miles.
Renaming the Gulf of Mexico is just one of the executive action that Donald Trump will be taking during the first hours of his presidency. He will declare a national emergency at the US-Mexico border, send US troops to help support immigration agents and restrict refugees and asylum. He’s also pledged to restart a policy that forced asylum seekers to wait over the border in Mexico, but officials didn’t say whether Mexico would accept migrants again.
Trump is rolling back protections for transgender people and ending diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
