A series of legislative proposals introduced by House Republicans, seemingly aimed at currying favor with President Donald Trump, would almost be funny, according to their Democratic colleagues, if they didn’t hint at a darker reality.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., introduced a bill to put Trump’s face on Mount Rushmore. Freshman Rep. Addison McDowell, R-N.C., has a bill to rename Dulles International Airport in Trump’s honor. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has introduced proposals to help Trump rename the Gulf of Mexico and expunge his two impeachments.
Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., meanwhile, has floated a constitutional amendment that would let Trump seek a third term in the White House.
