News Star article. No paywall

A Louisiana legislative committee has advanced a bill to name a proposed new Mississippi River bridge after Donald Trump. State Rep. Michael Echols believes naming the bridge after Trump could help secure his support and funding for the project. The proposed bridge's location and $3 billion in funding have not yet been finalized. The bill passed the committee on a 12-2 vote and now moves to the full House for debate. A Louisiana legislative committee has advanced a bill that would name a proposed new Mississippi River bridge in the Baton Rouge capital region after President Donald Trump. Republican Monroe state Rep. Michael Echols' House Bill 221 would name the bridge connecting Louisiana Highway 1 and Louisiana Highway 30 as the "President Donald J. Trump Expressway."

Whether you like him or not, if you put his name on something you get his attention," Echols said while presenting his bill to the House Transportation Committee March 10. "He likes to build big things. This is a big bridge."

It would be glorious because libtards would refuse to use it and would result in smooth sailing for normal people.
