1. Stain? Magnifying glass, but not a stain.

3. At this point the GOP "legacy" and Trmp are cut from the same cloth. When Trmp goes, racism and corruption will remain.

As will cronyism, incompetence and out-of-control partisanship. THIS IS the GOP now. The icons of the past -- Lincoln, TR, Eisenhower, Romney Sr., are ancient history, slowly dissolving into myth and legend.

The Reagan Legacy Project was unfortunate. The Republican drive to name a bunch of stuff after Donald Trump is significantly more ridiculous.

After Ronald Reagan left the White House, conservative activists launched an initiative called the “Reagan Legacy Project.” Driven by an apparent fear that history might be unkind to the Republican icon, the right set out to give the former president a public-relations boost.

The effort proved quite effective. At Republicans’ urging, Reagan’s name is everywhere — schools, bridges, courthouses, highways, airports, even children — though some in the GOP were convinced it wasn’t enough. About a decade ago, Republican Rep. Darrell Issa tried to rename nearly all of the water surrounding the United States after Reagan......

But the Gipper isn’t quite the GOP hero that he once was — a variety of prominent voices in the party have conceded that Reagan couldn’t win a Republican primary in today’s climate — and legacy-minded partisans have settled on a new icon. USA Today’s Dan Morrison wrote in his new column:

It’s the Summer of Trump in the House of Representatives, where Republican lawmakers have flooded the chamber with bills and resolutions honoring the former president, convicted felon and 2024 GOP frontrunner.

As regular readers know, several GOP lawmakers want to rename Dulles Airport in northern Virginia after the failed former president, and as of this morning, the measure has 11 Republican co-sponsors.

As Meidas Touch News noted over the weekend, some Republicans are even pushing an honor that was previously intended for Reagan.

On Truth Social Friday night, Trump shared a Fox News article detailing a GOP effort to rename the coastal waters surrounding the United States for Trump. Everyone going to the beach or using any other coastal waters would be technically swimming, boating, surfing, fishing, etc. in the newly renamed Trump zone.

Specifically, Republican Rep. Greg Steube of Florida would rename the immediate waters surrounding the United States, labeling them the “Donald John Trump Exclusive Economic Zone.”
