I somehow have a feeling that being president of the USA does not mean you can do whatever you want and people have to follow... Google Map, for one, is a product of a private company, not a Federal Service of the USA - so if they want to call it "Gulf of Google", they could!
Then you're right, they already protect/black out places and some places' names, however the Gulf of America, like the Channel of Washington are just bs that in the worst case scenario will live 4 years. So it's a joke and I like joking too
