        Like 50% of the playerbase are chuds who unironically support fascism, same as 40k. The only way around this is to require buyers to pass a written exam about the state and revolution before being allowed to play.

          Pretty certain it’s from the movie Naked Gun but I haven’t seen it in years, since I was a kid.

          He’s been getting mocked since the 80’s for renaming everything after himself, and not without reason

        He literally complained a few months ago about the name of New York because “there’s no such thing as Old York.”

    Unlike the other re-naming projects which were just Google and Apple changing the names on a couple maps, millions of people actually live in New Mexico. There’s a huge bureaucracy built using that name. Just the sheer logistical hurdle of changing all the letterhead and flags makes this is non-feasible. Trump can rage all he wants but there’s no way this goes through because it’s too much work. America doesn’t make anything any more, everybody is a lazy failchild imposter. We can’t do it. We can’t change all the paperwork.

      50% chance he tries the DOD renaming route, but instead of Department of Defense: Department of War, its New Mexico: New America. He’ll get his map where it says New America and forget about it

    We are not Mexico, we are the United States of America! 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! Maybe even the Crooked Elections, that New Mexico is known for, would become honest again!

    Oh my gooood dude, just call it New America and shut up

    I’m going to assume this isn’t real. However, the idea that more nationalism is the key to resolving your material problems is very on-brand for really any prominent American politician.

    This almost comes off as one of the Groyper podcasters in his cabinet doing a bit. I don’t think even Trump is this dumb.

    I hope he decides to rename everything after himself or America, would be so funny to see 15 different states that are all just variations on “America” and another two dozen variations of “Trump”
