    Nice burn:

    • “Donald Trump is facing 91 felony charges. If Republicans want to name something after him, I’d suggest they find a federal prison,” said Rep. Gerry Connolly, a Democrat who represents part of Dulles.

      Renaming things like airports and post offices actually is part of their job. It’s the one part they actually are doing.

    Shouldn’t he have to die first? Naming places after living people is a terrible idea, what happens if he gets charged with rape/fraud/assault/tax evasion/election manipulation? We might think less of him…

      I don’t see how that could be possible.

      Naming places after anyone is usually a bad idea. You find out about skeletons in their closet later and the place just has to be renamed.

      George Bush International was named after President Bush during his lifetime; Harry Reid International was renamed while the former senator was still alive. It isn’t that much of a stretch to name an airport after Trump while that piece of shit is still alive.

      However, I would think that Palm Beach would be a better airport to get his name due to Mar-a-Lago.

        Not to mention Washington National Airport in DC also being renamed Ronald Reagan National Airport 6 years before he died.

      Or the security levels of the documents found atr Mar-A-Lardo. You can only enter if you’re privy at the required level. Haha, jk, anyone can play!

      Let’s start with TOP SECRET Restroom, Confidential Relief Room, and SCI Station (for those nuclear shits). Suggestions are welcome.

    House Republicans push to rename Dulles airport after Trump

    “Insurrectionist International Airport” is a silly name. Why are they suggesting we name it that?

      They kind of already do, what with the most terrifying major airport being named after John Wayne, and the other shitty DC airport (you’re better off flying into BWI and taking MARC down) being named after Reagan

    I’m down with this actually.

    Dulles is by far the WORST airport I’ve ever been to/through. If we’re gonna name anything after Trump this feels most fitting.
