But Mexico has 63 more miles of coastline on the Gulf than the USA does. We should just leave it alone.

Wouldn't surprise me if this was inspired to circumvent the new ban on oil drilling Biden just enacted. "We're drilling in the Gulf of America, not the Gulf of Mexico."

    The US doesn't have exclusive rights to "America" as a name. In fact strictly speaking "Gulf of America" is not a bad name since it is the largest gulf in the Americas AFAIK.

    Canada has more land mass than the US does. Perhaps Trump should be talking about integrating the US into Canada (and doing away with the now-redundant US Presidential position).

    Cascadia, the one envisioned as a racist white ethnostate?

    What the fuck is wrong with you?

    I was born and raised in Cascadia and I have never once heard of it being some white racist ethnostate it's more of a bioregion/cool people thing...I googled it and it looks like some folk in the 1840s wanted to do that but comparing us with them is ridiculous on your part to tell ya the truth.

    I was raised all over the country - but got an education in history. I've known the chud's plan for Cascadia since I was a kid. Why don't you read history? Don't you think you should know what you're endorsing before you start suggesting people support a plan for a white racist ethnostate?

    Now that you know it's history are you in any way reconsidering?

    It's not just a historical motivation, the scumfucks are still pushing for it.

    USA != America. USA is a country that resides on the North American Continent.

    While I know Trump is doing this to try and claim it as the USA's... It actually makes sense if you actually use "America" properly to refer to North, Central and South America.
