Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) drew mockery on Tuesday for accidentally doing one thing she claims to be furiously against.

Namely, referring to the body of water that President Donald Trump has controversially decreed shall now be called the “Gulf of America” by its name of hundreds of years, the Gulf of Mexico.

Greene’s gaffe came on the Elon Musk-owned platform X, formerly Twitter, when she hyped the upcoming presentation of her bill, the Gulf of America Act, which she hopes will “codify President Trump’s executive order” renaming the water.

“Mexican cartels currently use the Gulf of Mexico to traffic humans, drugs, weapons, and God knows what else while the Mexican government allows them to do it,” the firebrand lawmaker alleged, using the Trump-banned name.

“The rightful name is the Gulf of America and it’s what the entire world should call it,” she added.............

Greene needs to find something useful to do for her constituents.

1. Wadda maroon. She says "Mexican cartels currently use the Gulf of Mexico

to traffic humans, drugs, weapons." So if it's renamed the Gulf of America, does she think the Mexican cartels will no longer be able to use it to traffic humans, drugs and weapons? Sure sounds like it.

8. Or she is just correctly identifying who is trafficking humans, drugs and weapons.

12. To be clear so as not to lose sight of the ball

The majority of human trafficking takes place domestically and by family members. Additionally, the majority of remaining trafficking takes place in partnership with domestic actors, and then the majority of "customers" are domestic. However, I know from speaking with task force agents that they aren't permitted to prioritize women (and men) who are sex trafficked but prioritize labor trafficking (because that takes jobs from kids I guess.) So, despite the emotional exploitation of the issue by politicians and others, it really isn't that important to most of them.

2. A thought for the Congresswoman

The reason drugs are smuggled into the U.S. is because Americans buy and use them. Capitalism tells us that if there’s a market, suppliers will fill the demand.

Stop the demand and you’ll stop the flow of drugs.

Greene is not a serious person.

3. I wouldn't be surprised if Greene happened to be one of those customers.

[John Farmer]

6. The guns mostly flow the other direction, from the US into Mexico.

[durablend]

4. I agree

Greene needs to find something useful to do for her constituents.

RESIGN!

[twodogsbarking]

5. She dumb.

[Boomerproud]

7. Her constituents continue to get what they deserve.

Unfortunately, the rest of us have to live with it.

[MiHale]

9. I'm going to start calling it...

America’s Butt Bay or … The Butt Bay of America

[republianmushroom]

10. Dumb and dumber

[Harker]

11. Evidently she's doing what her constituents want.

They keep electing her.

Sad.

[IronLionZion]

13. If you change the name, then it can't be used for trafficking

since that's how it works.

[Justice matters.]

15. Zinga! They will then use the new name but keep on trafficking in it.

And the shame will have a new name.

Dumb Blond Bum has no clue...

[rickyhall]

14. Of course, we could legalize pot & put the cartels out of business but no we can't do that.

[Blackjackdavey]

17. Anyone trafficking pot across an international border

in this day and age is an idiot who deserves stupid prison. I gotta believe a cost benefit analysis has already reduced the cartels involvement in that.

[AmericaUnderSiege]

16. I don't think she's ever seen a map.

At least not one that wasn't covered in plastic on a restaurant table to show the franchise's other locations. Pathetic child.
