Donald Trump, during a media event, got teary-eyed over a map featuring the newly renamed "Gulf of America," which he had declared through an executive order. Despite controversy, tech giants like Apple and Microsoft updated their maps to reflect the change. The Associated Press (AP) continued using the original "Gulf of Mexico," leading to a legal battle between the White House and the AP. Trump criticized the AP for its stance, while Elon Musk mocked them on social media. Legal proceedings continue, with Trump adamant about enforcing the name change.
