Donald Trump is seeking to rename the U.S. state of New Mexico as “New America,” according to reporting that follows a recent push to change a geographic name to “Lake Ameria.” The proposal is presented as part of a broader pattern of renaming efforts.
The Independent reports that the New Mexico change comes days after Trump’s earlier decision to rename Lake Ontario to “Lake Ameria.” Yahoo UK News also frames the matter as part of Trump’s ongoing habit of altering the names of places, focusing on the continuity between the two announcements.
Both outlets describe the renaming as targeting U.S. geography and present it as an attention-grabbing theme rather than providing extensive detail on the procedural steps, legal implications, or responses from state or federal authorities. The reporting emphasizes the sequence of changes and the similarity in branding language rather than endorsing or critiquing the goals.
