Trump did not propose renaming Washington, DC

A viral video claims President Trump suggested renaming Washington, DC, to "District of America" due to his dislike of "Columbia." However, this claim is false, as there is no evidence supporting it. Fact-checking reveals the video is likely a deepfake. Research indicates Trump is focused on federal control of DC, not renaming it. The misinformation may stem from confusion over the term "Columbia." Trump has previously renamed other locations, such as the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, but there is no indication he plans to change the name of Washington, DC.
