How about new Mexico?

For that matter, how about Los Angeles? Does she understand that the US has thousands of cities and places that have Spanish names?

Doesn't matter, she's just trying to stay in the spotlight. Only way to do that for her is to whip up some clickbait.

Wait til she finds out that neither Columbus nor Vespucci have visited the United States and that they were both working for the Spanish.
