“In my lifetime, our nation has never been greater than under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump,” Reschenthaler informed Fox News Digital. “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.”
So certain, you may be questioning if something has modified since January, when Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) was brazenly admitting the lack of legislation they’d passed was “embarrassing” and Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) was questioning whether or not they should even preserve their very slim majority.
The reply is YES! But in addition, NO! As a result of they’ve put forth a invoice to honor Donald Trump, which is principally what they’ve been doing with their energy in a single type or one other.
The Democrats actually aren’t excellent, however they acquired loads of laws handed that really did one thing to assist individuals. They had been laser targeted below Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).
In the meantime, Home Republicans have struggled to maintain a Speaker with subservience to Donald Trump being the primary qualification for the job. And that’s their greatest downside, and why they’ve spent the ability that they had on empty investigations seemingly making an attempt to question Hunter Biden, who holds no public workplace, in a relentless effort to soiled the Biden title on par with the corrupt slime hooked up to the Trump title.
Final yr was actually the “least productive year in Congress in at least 50 years. This year is on track to be worse,” the Washington Post reported in February, after Speaker Mike Johnson (who believes God selected him to steer, however God didn’t select President Joe Biden, in some sort of God fluke that maybe can solely be defined in a Trump Bible) didn’t cross a border invoice, didn’t replenish America’s weapons and didn’t cross help to Israel and extra.
It has been the true definition of a clown present, shadow-run by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, whose affinity for exhibiting stolen bare photographs of the President’s son to the nation on C-SPAN reveals the darkish illness that has taken maintain of the get together that used to personal, or not less than promote, “traditional values.”
In March, Home Republicans once more struggled to do the naked minimal the individuals pay them to do, which is fund the federal government. The fiscal yr spending package deal was once more on the Home flooring on March sixth with the clock ticking to a partial authorities shutdown. That is how they “legislate.” It’s a careening, rudderless effort solely identifiable by its one precedence: Serve Donald Trump.
So this airport renaming isn’t any shock. Republicans wish to rename an airport after the ex-president who has been discovered accountable for rape and fraud and is at present going through 91 prison indictments and has incited what Director Wray referred to as a terrorist assault on the nation on January sixth, in an try to keep up energy.
That is the person Republicans have ceded close to whole energy to, even giving him energy of the RNC through his daughter-in-law, a transfer that fashions the consolidation of energy of an authoritarian.
After they’re not attempting to question Democrats over coverage disagreements, insurance policies that by the best way the American individuals voted for in what was deemed the most secure election in trendy historical past, Republicans may be discovered attempting to appease Donald Trump by losing legislative efforts on renaming airports after a fraudster who incited an assault on his personal nation as a result of he refused to acknowledge the desire of the individuals.
Would possibly we propose they use this picture of the categorised paperwork Trump stashed in an accessible rest room at his membership in Florida as a brand for the airport? Perhaps firstclass airport loos can grow to be a protected place through which to promote army secrets and techniques to hostile powers.
There are such a lot of extra methods to earn money off of entry to a former president, Donald Trump and his Republican enablers have apparently solely simply gotten began.
