I’m sure you’re well aware of Google and Apple changing their maps to say “Gulf of America.”

On his website, Representative Carter said, “America is back and will soon be bigger than ever with the addition of Red, White, and Blueland. President Trump has correctly identified the purchase of what is now Greenland as a national security priority, and we will proudly welcome its people to join the freest nation to ever exist when our Negotiator-in-Chief inks this monumental deal.”

Well, so it goes in the news cycle lately, people think this one is wild.

“Not being political but ‘Red, White, and Blueland’ is… a choice.”

“We’re living in a South Park episode smh,” another person said.

On a similar note, this person added: “The Onion has their work cut out for them to keep up with this nonsense.”

Anyway, thoughts on this one?
