Trump suggests renaming New Mexico
On Sunday, U.S. President Donald Trump proposed changing the name of New Mexico to "New America," following days after he suggested renaming Lake Ontario to "America Lake" as part of a trade war with Canada. Trump explained that the new name is more noble and beautiful and reflects the state's potential. However, the state’s governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, rejected the idea, deeming it not up for discussion and affirming that the name predates the existence of the United States. These proposals come amid Trump’s efforts to distract Americans from domestic and international issues, following previous suggestions to rename areas such as the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Mexico, which were met with rejection from neighboring countries.
