Trump posts map renaming New Mexico to 'New America'

The White House reposted the image, but there was no official government announcement. This follows Trump’s earlier hint at renaming Lake Ontario to 'Lake America' via an executive order, and his broader interest in renaming geographic features. New Mexico Gov.

Detroit answers with late-second-quarter field goals from Jake Bates to cut the deficit to 10‑6 at halftime.
