Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) referred to the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America” in an executive order Monday addressing a winter weather weather system moving into parts of the Sunshine State this week.

The potential name change is more likely to spread confusion than awe —  especially if the same body of water is called different names by different countries.

Florida's governor appeared to take President Donald Trump's cue and reference the "Gulf of America" in his latest executive order.

Florida residents in four locations woke to very chilly temps. It was 25 in Tallahassee at 6 a.m. By comparison, it was 41 in Anchorage, Alaska.

As part of a torrent of decisions he issued hours after taking office, President Trump declared that the name of America’s tallest mountain be changed from Denali to Mount McKinley, and that the Gulf of Mexico be renamed “The Gulf of America.”

Among the first executive orders signed by President Trump was an order to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America."

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says he's waiting till the last minute to announce his pick because he doesn't want the new person to be "a piñata" for the news media.
