Democrats on the Hill are absolutely losing it after it was revealed that House GOP members are pushing a bill to rename a Washington D.C. airport after former President Donald Trump.
“Any reference in any law, regulation, map, document, paper, or other record of the United States to the airport referred to in subsection (a) shall be considered to be a reference to the Donald J. Trump International Airport,” the brief bill said.
Now, lefty lawmakers are losing their minds over the possible Trump rebrand.
“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 (D-VA), whose district partially covers Dulles.
“This is just another in a long list of instances where extreme House Republicans have shown how unserious & delusional they are,” Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-VA) added. “Let’s get to work on the real issues the American people sent us here for — not renaming an airport after someone who sought to undermine our democracy,” Wexton said.
“One of Trump’s first acts as president was a racist Muslim ban that blocked permanent American residents from their own country,” Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA) said. “I went to Dulles to try to help innocent people caught up in the chaos. I remember grandparents detained for hours as their terrified families waited.”
“Dulles is an old, ugly airport that no one wants to see. So I think this is a fitting tribute to [the 45th president],” Rep. Brendan Boyle (D-PA) said.
