GOP Lawmakers Push Legislation Honoring Trump

GOP Lawmakers Push Legislation Honoring Trump

Washington Post: “House Republicans have proposed at least eight bills since January to honor the president or burnish his image. They would, among other things, put Trump’s portrait on U.S. currency, carve his face onto Mount Rushmore, rename Washington Dulles International Airport for him and make his birthday a national holiday. Two bills, both introduced by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), called for the House to expunge Trump’s impeachments in 2019 and 2021.”

“Longtime political observers say the GOP’s legislative love fest for the president is well outside of congressional norms. While members have often proposed legislation that honors presidents, it is almost never while they are still in office.”

The late Queen ER II had all of that stuff. Does he think he's a king or something?

Especially the nasty ones that result in body parts shriveling up and/or falling off and rolling down your pants leg at inopportune times.

Secretary Bob, instruct your brain worms to make it a priority. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
