It's symbolic. I know there are many pertinent things listed in this thread, and more than one thing can be done at a time. But America needs to be reminded that we ARE America and we are going to have to take steps to heal from Trump's stupid, egotistical crap, and get back to normal running a country like it should be run.

Shove that in his orange face, and tell his followers that it's also still the Gulf of Mexico!
