Seven House Republicans have filed a bill on Friday to rename Washington, DC's main airport, Dulles International, after Donald Trump. The bill would rename the airport Donald J. Trump International Airport.

The bill's sponsor is Rep. Guy Reschenthaler from Pennsylvania. Co-sponsors are Reps. Michael Waltz, Andy Ogles, Chuck Fleischmann, Paul Gosar, Barry Moore and Troy Nehles.

"In my lifetime, our nation has never been greater than under the leadership of Donald J. Trump. As millions of domestic and international travelers fly through the airport, there is no better symbol of freedom, prosperity, and strength than hearing, 'Welcome to Trump International Airport' as they land on American soil."

Gosar also told Fox, "I can see no more fitting recognition than naming both airports in our nation's capital after America's two best presidents: DCA after President Reagan and Dulles after President Trump."

Is that one of the airports the Continental Army took from the British during the Revolutionary war?

And shortly after, everyone stops using Trump International Airport and instead decides to use Baltimore-Washington International Airport instead.

That seems like something you should be doing after someone is dead. Don't really see these types of honors while people are alive. I think naming a street while someone is alive is more appropriate.

We definitely do not need to name any airports after Trump. Thats a name you cannot trust.

They did with Washington International Airport being renamed Ronald Reagan Washington International Airport in 1998. Reagan died in 2004.
Also, the junior high school I went to (John T. Baker in Damascus, Maryland) was named for him when it opened in 1971, and he attended the naming ceremony.

MAGA acts as if this election is the final chance to make their generation of deception take hold and pardon everyone.

Or lose everything in a sunk cost fallacy they don't want to escape from.

Trump is their only vehicle left. They've run out of ideas and the next deplorable to lead the flock isn't ready.

It'll never happen, but this bill should be combed over meticulously regardless. I could easily see them trying to sneak something in that anything named after him technically is his property that he can bankrupt at his pleasure.

I do kind of wonder if these sorts of bills are continual loyalty tests from Trump. Like everyone knows it is doomed but he has members push them anyway to see who will vote for/against it.

Well Trump is the first former president to be indicted on dozens of counts so I think the most honorable thing to do would be to rename a federal prison instead.

All toilets should be re-named Trump. So we can say we have to go use the Trumper.

I lived in the DC area for 15 years and had to endure constantly flying into an airport named after one of the worst Presidents in history. Might as well just complete the ridiculousness performative bullshit by naming the other one after the worst president this country has every seen. At least Gosar and company won't be doing further damage while their faces are firmly affixed to Trump's boots-and other areas.

The ironic thing is that Ronald Reagan was absolutely horrible, but he would be a RINO in today's carnival funhouse GOP.

Seriously. I'm so glad they're fighting the important fights in Congress.

Though it's probably better they waste their time with this than try to implement other shitty policies.

It's not only gross, they're clearly just doing it to troll. Republicans are always talking shit about D.C. in terms of people, economy, government, etc. And yet they want to steal the name of their airport to rename it after the guy the vast majority of actual D.C. residents loathe.

My seething hatred for Republicans will soon burn hotter than a thousand suns.

Which has already been given to Trump in FL.
