00:00
After Donald Trump declared he'd rename the Gulf of Mexico, President Claudia Scheinbaum
00:06
showed off her sense of humour.
00:11
The Gulf of Mexico is of course the name that's recognised by the United Nations, but why
00:20
don't we call the United States Mexican America?
00:25
It sounds nice, doesn't it?
00:28
A sarcastic response to the President-elect's comment, which came along with other declarations
00:34
such as his ambition to claim control of Greenland and the Panama Canal.
00:39
We're going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, which
00:47
has a beautiful ring that covers a lot of territory.
00:50
The Gulf of America, what a beautiful name.
00:53
And it's appropriate.
00:55
It's appropriate.
00:57
Trump and Scheinbaum have been trading jibes in the weeks running up to the US President's
01:01
return to office, notably on the matters of tariffs and of migration.
01:07
Despite the taunts, left-wing Scheinbaum said she believes a positive partnership is possible
01:12
with Donald Trump.
01:14
We must wait for him, Donald Trump, to take office.
01:17
And in any case, there's international law.
01:21
I still think there will be good relations with President Trump.
01:24
Why?
01:25
Because there are good relations with our former President López Obrador.
01:30
Trump will be sworn into office on the 20th of January as the 47th President of, perhaps,
01:37
Mexican America.
