Donald Trump wants to change New Mexico state's name to "New America"

SAPO Notícias7 September 2026 at 08:49

Donald Trump, President of the United States, suggested that the state of New Mexico, located in the southwest of the country, should change its name and become "New America." The suggestion was made by the American leader and involves only this name change for the state.

New Mexico is a state located in the southwest of the United States. Trump's proposal aims to rename this region with the suggested name of "New America," thus changing the current official name of the state.

The President's suggestion comes in a context of possible administrative or symbolic changes in the United States. This is not the first time Trump has expressed interest in changing names or borders of territories, having made similar proposals in the past regarding other regions.
