Mapquest isn't changing it because an executive order doesn't change the name outside of the US executive branch. They can easily ignore petty GNIS changes.
Google is just gargling Trump's nuts because they want to.
Waze hasn't either, otherwise imma be done with it all
Hate to break it to you but google owns Waze.
