White House amplifies 'New America' map, sparking backlash over New Mexico's name
The White House reposted a map showing New Mexico renamed as 'New America,' continuing a trend of geographic rebranding by President Trump.

The image originated from a parody account, and critics argue the renaming tactic distracts from low approval ratings and pressing national issues.
