The United States does not have a "Department of War".

Funny how we can tell now whether the other person is a Kool-Aid drinker by how they refer to things.

Gulf of Mexico, or Gulf of America?

Department of War is far more honest. The Gulf name doesn't mean anything, it's a joke and we all know it.

It is a “joke” insofar as it’s an asinine undertaking.

It’s not a “joke” in the sense of being lighthearted or unserious: there was a press conference at the White House. Official US maps have been updated. Google Maps has been updated.
