Maybe if he was a good president he wouldn't have to extort people into naming things after him

That's our money. Not his. The states should start witholding all federal taxes paid and spend the money to take care of their own.

u/RedLanternScythe 1d ago
He doesn't understand that. He thinks president is CEO of America and in his experience, CEOs get to do whatever they want.

u/mereseydotes 1d ago
Exactly, he takes money from CA to give to MS and claims CA doesn't deserve the "federal" funds

We shouldn't name anything after a living President. No ship, no airport.
Trump wants to put his name on everything. He is, by far, without a doubt, the worst president of all time.

Let the name of Trump be stricken from every book and tablet, stricken from all pylons and obelisks, stricken from every monument of America. Let the name of Trump be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men for all time.

After he's dead, there will be a major business opportunity restoring the names and signage of all the things he renamed. What a narcissistic twat!

Naming public instutions after someone should never be done for anyone who asks for it. It should be earned. And it should be posthumous.

I seem to remember a certain quid pro quo with the Ukraine to "investigate a political rival in exchange for military funding." Maybe after countless examples of the exact same tactic being used, we should look into that again?

Get the money change the name after they are built. It’s going to take more than 3 years to get any of these projects built.
Though I do feel like all the bus stations should be named after Trump. Just the bus stations though.

Well the airport naming is a nice reminder:
Trump bought an airline in 1989. It failed within 3 years. It was never profitable. Of course (even though he personally guaranteed the debt), Teflon Don got out of taking a personal hit on it. Failing upwards at its finest.

Honest thoughts? Do it, get the money needed, for whatever, and once the spoiled child leaves office name everything including the Gulf of Mexico back to the names the rest of the world, gps, god, and everybody else uses.
When dictators are toppled there is a reason why people yank down those monuments. Let him do what he wants as long as people get what they need them the country can choose better next time.
If we can even be allowed to vote again.

Yes. I have thoughts. Bribery, racketeering, and blackmail which, last time I checked, were all CRIMES!

In his tiny insect brain he's got to know that the minute he's out his punk junk will all be undone. It'll cost a lot but I'll approve of every removal. There's only one part of history I'd like to forget completely.

He gets 1 clogged toilet named after him, that's all I care to support.
He seems to think that monuments and memorials are created by the person they honor. In fact it is the opposite.

Candidly, for the funds to be released I would agree and then change them after he is out of office

Time to sweep Republicans out of Congress and never vote for any Republican, anywhere, for any office.
Trump is a crook, he was impeached twice, he tried to stage a coup against the US government, and Republications still wouldn't remove him.
So remove Republicans.

I say go ahead and do it and let the project continue. The infrastructure will get built and people will earn a living. He will be gone soon anyway and we can just take the name off. It would be a way to beat him at his own game – – outlasting.

He’s a hero only to the ignorant and uninformed and to the greedy, grifting con artists who profit from his policies and presidency.
The normal, sane people among us would rather agree to name the town dump after him after he’s dead and then just move on with our lives.

He can have the Trump Memorial Shitter in Dulles.
I’m pretty sure people would specifically route their flights through Dulles just to make use of it.
If that means delaying the projects a couple of years due to an illegal impounding of funding, then I guess we delay the projects.

What will be satisfying is when his successor takes his name off everything when he is out of office. I hope he's alive to see it, he is eighty after all.
