WASHINGTON — Three Democratic congressmen unveiled legislation Friday to rename a federal prison in Miami after former President Donald Trump.

The bill — offered by Reps. Gerry Connolly, of Virginia; Jared Moskowitz, of Florida; and John Garamendi, of California — comes in response to a measure introduced by a group of House Republicans to rename Washington Dulles International Airport after Trump.

The Democrats' bill would rename the Miami Federal Correctional Institution in Florida the "Donald J. Trump Federal Correctional Institution."

“When our Republican colleagues introduced their bill to rename Dulles after Donald Trump, I said the more fitting option would be to rename a federal prison,” Connolly said in a statement. “I hope our Republican friends will join us in bestowing upon Donald J. Trump the only honor he truly deserves.”

The bill to rename Dulles after Trump was filed last Friday. It was sponsored by Rep. Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., the chief deputy majority whip, and co-sponsored by six other Republicans: Reps. Michael Waltz, of Florida; Andrew Ogles, of Tennessee; Chuck Fleischmann, of Tennessee; Paul Gosar, of Arizona; Barry Moore, of Alabama; and Troy Nehls, of Texas.

Generally not a good idea to name things after someone who is still alive.

How about naming raw sewage collection systems after Reps. Gerry Connolly, of Virginia; Jared Moskowitz, of Florida; and John Garamendi, of California?

How about the "Official Democrat Hanging Tree".

Or the National Park Service naming EVERY bathroom in all the National parks after one Democrat.

Oh please. They’re all talk. All they actually do is send money to Ukraine…if that’s even where it ends up

Name one thing they have done.

Throw all those evil, stinking demonicrats into that prison, along with all their illegal invasion criminal partners, and all their deep-state, federal agency and treasonous media co-conspirators.   (Feed all of them "beyond burgers", "impossible meat", and bugs, and let them drink bug juice.)

Following their trials and convictions the only correctional system the Demonicrats will need is made of manila hemp and connected to a platform with a trap door.

Democrats are vicious to their political opponents, but their viciousness is a hundred fold when it comes to Trump. They fear him more than anyone else on the GOP side by a mile!

Contract Trump the developer to build a federal prison fast and cheap segregated for both sexes and put his name on it in gold letters like his buildings. Then convict Swalwell, Schiff, Pelosi, McConnell, the Vindman bros and the Squad for starters and house them there.

Banana Republic would be an appropriate new name for our nations capital. Gen. Washington has been defamed enough.

In San Francisco elementary students wanted to name a sewage treatment plant after G. Bush 43. He sent them letter thanking them for the honor along with a history lesson on how sewage treatment saved millions of lives and saved the environment.
