Trump Mobile pulls coverage map after ‘Gulf of Mexico’ label sparks chatter online

UNITED STATES, JUN 17 – Trump Mobile removed its coverage map after it showed the internationally recognized name 'Gulf of Mexico,' contradicting President Trump's executive order to rename it 'Gulf of America.'

  • Trump Mobile launched on Monday but swiftly removed its coverage map after users spotted the Gulf of Mexico label instead of the preferred Gulf of America.
  • The removal followed President Donald Trump’s January 2025 executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, a change rejected internationally.
  • Trump Mobile is a mobile service supported by Liberty Mobile Wireless that relies on networks from major carriers, including T-Mobile, to provide coverage.
  • On X, someone shared an image of the map along with the comment, “lol, this is comical,” as the webpage now displays a 404 error and redirects visitors to the homepage.
  • The swift map removal highlights challenges for Trump Mobile’s venture, which licensed the Trump name and aims to capitalize on the president’s influence.
