To be clear, they've changed names in line with official government policy before, not just for Trump's admin.

Yeah but that makes too much sense for emotional & reactional people that don't rely on logic

I get what you’re saying, but the renaming itself is entirely an act of emotion and reaction, with no trace of logic, too. It’s pretty much all we should expect to see from anyone for a while.

They are a private organization with the right to say “lol that’s nice”, and leave it as the gulf of mexico. Executive orders direct government policy.
