唐纳德·特朗普总统再次向新墨西哥州推销更名方案，敦促该州将“墨西哥”替换为“美国”，并声称此举将提振从房价到州民自豪感在内的方方面面。
“新墨西哥州应立即更名为新美国。我们不是墨西哥，我们是美利坚合众国！”特朗普在Truth Social上写道。
“这个名字将为该州增添巨大价值与声望！房价和收入都会上涨，你们在向我们美丽的美国国旗致敬时，也会更加自豪！”
这位总统还借机抨击了该州的选举情况。

“或许连新墨西哥州素来闻名的‘欺诈选举’也能再次变得公正透明！”他写道。

特朗普在该帖中并未提供证据支撑其选举指控，也未解释更名将如何推高房价和收入。
这一提议再次唤起了特朗普上月提出的构想，当时他分享了一张用红笔将“墨西哥”划掉并替换为“美国”的地图。白宫官方X账号转发了这条帖子。

特朗普还在9月9日的共和党全国代表大会中期会议上提出了更名提议，建议邻州新墨西哥州更名为“新美国”，并声称该构想广受欢迎。
“你们有个邻州，新墨西哥州。我们认为它应该被叫做新美国，”特朗普说，“我跟你们说，民众都很喜欢这个主意。”
“我不知道激进左翼怎么想。我确定他们不会喜欢，但民众确实喜爱这个提议，”他补充道。
新墨西哥州民主党州长米歇尔·卢扬·格里沙姆当时就予以反驳，她告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，该州的名称“无需讨论——早在美国成立之前，这个名字就属于我们了”。
她指责白宫转移注意力，而她的政府正专注于儿童保育、教育、医疗保健和住房问题。

“白宫却在浪费时间在地图上涂涂画画，而新墨西哥州正忙于推进各项工作，”卢扬·格里沙姆上月说道。
特朗普的最新帖文呼吁该州更名，但并未阐述正式的更名程序。新墨西哥州的名称已明确写入该州宪法第一条，其中规定：“本州名称为新墨西哥州。”

Trump renews push to rename New Mexico ‘New America,’ touts higher home values and incomes

Trump revives push to give New Mexico a patriotic makeover after the state’s governor previously rejected the idea as a political stunt

President Donald Trump is giving New Mexico another branding pitch, urging the state to swap “Mexico” for “America” and suggesting the change could boost everything from home values to state pride.
“New Mexico should immediately change its name to New America. We are not Mexico, we are the United States of America!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“The name would add great value and prestige to the State! Home Values and Incomes would rise, and you would be even prouder while saluting our beautiful American Flag!”
The president also worked in a swipe at the state’s elections.

“Maybe even the Crooked Elections, that New Mexico is known for, would become honest again!” he wrote.

Trump offered no evidence in the post to support his election allegation or explain how a name change would increase property values and incomes.
The suggestion revives an idea Trump floated last month, when he shared a map showing “Mexico” crossed out in red and replaced with “America.” The White House amplified that post on its official X account.

Trump also pitched the change during remarks at the RNC Midterm Convention on Sept. 9, suggesting neighboring New Mexico become “New America” and claiming the idea was popular.
“You have a neighboring state, New Mexico. We think it should be called New America,” Trump said. “I’ll tell you, the people love the idea.”
“I don’t know about the radical left. I’m sure it doesn’t like it, but the people love it,” he added.
New Mexico’s Democratic governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, pushed back at the time, telling Fox News Digital that the state’s name “isn’t up for debate — it’s been ours since before the United States existed.”
She accused the White House of focusing on a distraction while her administration worked on child care, education, health care and housing.

“While the White House wastes time coloring on maps, Nuevo México is busy doing the work,” Lujan Grisham said last month.
Trump’s latest post calls for the state to change its name but does not lay out a formal process for doing so. New Mexico’s name is expressly written into Article I of its constitution, which states, “The name of this state is New Mexico.”
