Trump wants to relabel New Mexico as New America days after changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake Ameria

Donald Trump has already changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario, and now he’s targeting a US state for a rebrand.

Trump is spending the holiday weekend dreaming up his next demand to relabel America’s geography. He posted a map on Truth Social Sunday afternoon of New Mexico, but the word Mexico was crossed out and replaced with America.

Relabeling the southwestern state on the U.S.-Mexico border as New America is reminiscent of an executive order he signed early in his second term, in which he changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.

    Geography isnt his strong suit. I can agree with changing one name. Washington District of Columbia. Could totally change that name.

      He doesn’t have a strong suit. He only has weak suits. Even his actual suits are ill-fitting.

      That’s funny, being as Columbia means the United States. So quite literally Washington District of the United States, changes to what, Washington District of America, if we’re following the deranged name changing? I don’t know how I feel, is it less American or more?

        We could name it like a stadium! Highest bidder puts there company logo on it. Open-faced corruption deserves a corporate sponsor.
