US President Donald Trump expressed his admiration for changing the name of the state of New Mexico to "New America," pointing out that many people have suggested the new name to him. Trump affirmed that the proposed name would be "more prestigious and beautiful" for the state's residents, adding, in reference to New Mexico: "What an idea... I love it." Trump reiterated his accusations regarding the elections in the state, describing New Mexico as one of the states that witnesses, according to his claim, widespread electoral fraud. Trump did not provide evidence in his post to support this accusation, nor did he clarify whether his talk about changing the state's name represents an official proposal that his administration would adopt or merely an endorsement of an idea he said others had put forward. Trump's proposal comes after similar suggestions he made regarding the names of geographical locations, including using the name "Gulf of America" instead of the Gulf of Mexico in official US usage. Trump also recently posted content suggesting naming Lake Ontario, which is shared between the United States and Canada, "Lake America."
