The tantrums of an authoritarian child
The image displays a news article from 'RawStory' dated February 13, 2025, about President Donald Trump barring the Associated Press from press briefings over their refusal to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the 'Gulf of America.' The article includes a photo of Trump looking at a map labeled 'Gulf of America.' Adjacent to this is a screenshot of a tweet from Fox News commentator Guy Benson, who poses a hypothetical question: if a future Democratic administration renamed the Mississippi River to the 'Barack Obama River' to honor the first Black president, how would people react if a news organization refused to update its name and was then frozen out by the administration in retaliation. The article notes that while the AP hasn't updated its naming conventions, Apple Maps and Google Maps now display 'Gulf of America' for users in the U.S.
