Whilst he's at it, changing Burger King to Burger Queen is also in need of consideration.

And that’s basically it!
As a born and raised New Mexican, fuck this absolute piece of garbage, and fuck anyone who has voted or is continuing to vote for the convicted rapist and pedophile party. New Mexico is a culturally rich and diverse state, full of traditions going back hundreds, in some cases thousands, of years.
There's dozens of us New Mexicans here! Dozens!
It's such a stupid idea because even people who voted for him have New Mexican pride and wouldn't agree with this change, it's simply stupid
My wife and I love NM. We're from shithole TX and if there isn't a blue wave here, we would love to move.
Why is he still alive?
Nobody has the stones to do anything about it
Even Death is like "Nah, thanks"
Think of it from Death's point of view.
He spares this one guy for a while, and in return, that one guy does his job for him, for free.
The french are protesting against education funding. And americans wont get off the couch to rescue their own country.
Mobs are easier to form when your entire country is the size of a single US state and everyone who wants to participate in the country is within a day of driving to the same location. Your people aren't less willing to be fucked over by the government. It's just easier for the small percentage of you who will riot to meet up.
That's irrelevant. Why is he still president should be the question.
Gulf of America, lake America, new America? Just how uncreative is this motherfucker?
Everything is about saying he named it. Dude wants to claim he created God.
He’s gonna have to fight Keith Richards on that one
He only has room in his head for like 10 words at a time. That's why he thinks remembering 5 in cognitive tests is a huge victory. It takes half his brain! And the other half is "America" "golf" "China" and "besty Putin."
At some point he was told patriotism or some like thing polls well and his dementia addled brain locked onto it. On some level he understands he's dying, wants to leave his mark and can't get away with naming everything Trump as he's done his whole life, so "America" it is.
Saw a map earlier with Albuquerque renamed Charliequerque lol

Comically, New Mexico acquired its name long before "New Spain" became Mexico. Apparently New Mexico predates Mexico. (By a decent while too).
Edit ended up reading the article, it is listed in the article further down as well "New Mexico’s name predates the founding of the United States back to the 16th century"
Apparently New Mexico predates Mexico. (By a decent while too).
...
New Mexico predates the modern country of Mexico, yes.
But when Spanish Conquistadors first reached the Valle de Mexico, in the 1520s, it was the most densely populated urban area on the planet at over a million people.
That's why New Mexico includes "new", because it wasn't the original.
Wasn't this just an Onion article like a couple months ago, and now it's on Nottheonion?
There are no adults coming to save us. It won't even be that surprising if this ends up happening. Certainly not becausw it makes a shred of sense, just because this timeline is satire.
I legitimately saw this news floating around earlier and just assumed it was a parody article...
NM Republican ~~legislators~~ submissives passing legislation in 3...2...
"Regressives." Don't be associating subs with that trash.
Dude will talk about ANYTHING except the Epstein files.
Were all the other empires throughout history this fucking retarded?
Eventually, yes.
Calling it already, all Spanish names of towns and states will be forcefully translated to English. Prepare for Snowy, Tiles, Flowery, Aridzone and Caliphornia to be really peeved about this
Trump is a freak. People who like him are weirdos. Enough said.
I cannot wait until this fucker is gone. The arrowhead of American failure was carved by people like Donald Trump.
Lmfao holy shit. This is wild.
Stop these ideas. America means the whole continent not USA. Trump just does not get what he is saying.
So never mind the latest insane rambling, what is this corrupt administration trying to distract us from this time?
What a lousy POS. I'm going to throw in the age old question, "Where are the damn Epstein Files?"
Remember when we dismissed one of, if not the most, progressive president in our lifetime because he was old and "senile"?
And traded him out for whatever the rapist fuck this is.
The ignorance in America is too vast to describe without sounding like hyperbole.
Said something about Trump's dementia to a good friend last week, "Yeah, but Biden was pretty bad too wasn't he?"
There are exactly two people on my street that understand current events, both old black folks. My young black friend (above) and the white people of all ages are clueless. My Asian wife only knows about Trump through me and her friends and family back home who now hate him over gas prices. (See chart)
There's a monster chunk of our population that votes on vibes and how their personal life is going. Trump's 30% approval? That's not MAGA, that's the politically disconnected.
/rant

We need a new one because he fucked up regular America?
we do not yet have a president. the guy claiming the title is a mob boss that stole it from us, feel free to ignore his specious edicts
Ah yes, the party of states' rights totally not telling states what to do or how to do it.
Would that make the abbreviation NA?
