In 1996 the U.S. hosted the Summer Olympics. I’ll never forget reading about this story. Wade Miller, a Santa Fe, New Mexico, resident, tried to buy tickets to the volleyball match from the Summer Olympics ticket office in Atlanta. When the agent found out he lived in New Mexico, she refused to sell him a ticket. She claimed she couldn’t sell tickets to anyone outside the United States. He appealed to the agent’s supervisor, who also believed that New Mexico was not part of the United States, even though New Mexico became the 47th state in 1912.
Trump's just playing off a well known goof. Get over it.
We're really stretching the definition of well known here. I'd be shocked if Trump had ever heard that story.

Agreed! Hopefully he recommends a name change for Louisiana next, “Americana” has a nice ring to it.

I cannot fathom why anyone would have a problem with changing New Mexico to New America.

Here's a fun fact...Mar-a-Lago was named by a Spaniard, not a Mexican. So, you're wrong. It's name is appropriate. The problem isn't with the Spanish language itself, but the name Mexico. This is America.

Oh, my bad. Trump should keep his SPANISH named home So stupid of me

Correct. And he is right. Outside of a few small areas in the northern half of the state, New "Mexico" is a desperate, terrible place. Maybe all it needs is a rebranding.

8-4iana doesn't quite roll off the tongue as well.

So you've been to Las Cruces? Or Hobbs? Or Roswell? Alamagordo? Ruidoso? Carlsbad? Silver City?

You're such a loyal Trump bukkake Dork. If there's even a sliver of spin to glom onto, you'll gladly pull your hair into a ponytail, lean back, close your eyes and open your mouth widely.

Let me ask you this way...you know how they're doing all that space related shite in Alabama these days? How well do you think it would go over if Elon Musk took a big bunch of his money and donated it to the University of Alabama and said, "here, here is eleventy million dollars. I want you to build the greatest observatory in the world. An observatory that will be the envy of every university and research institution on Earth. But there is one catch. I get to name it." and then he named it after Auburn.
How well do you think that would go over?

So alpha. So amazing. He knows how to suck them in every time with his trolling!

Dutiful little Milquetoast with a silly hypothetical. You're nothing but a servant in this life.

Me neither. Let’s rename New York and New Jersey too. And instead of North and South Dakota/Carolina they can be North/South America! #winning

Of course. The name Marjorie is a dead giveaway. Margarita, Marjorie. It's basically the same thing.
