Let’s give Trump more space to show us why we shouldn’t rebrand BNA • Tennessee Lookout

I have been contemplating Donald Trump’s fantasy desires simultaneously with the Gulf of Mexico and the fawn of state legislator Todd Warner Cross Army Rename the airport in Nashville. Trump wants the US Gulf and Warner wants Trump International Airport. Procedurally, these are completely different companies. Gulf things don’t actually happen except for a general overview of collective postpostolicity, but the airport and its identity operate at the request of the government’s Fiat. But they have one thing in common. On the scale of branding competition, both score from the charts.

An attempt at a single country to rename a body of water that is not included only in that country is the best order uncrunched arrogance. In other words, classic playing cards. And to be honest, part of me is always ready to admire the unning political sinking that quietly tilts my cap to the brilliance of this geographical gamemanship. With random, pointless speed, Trump was able to illuminate kinetic flames under his heartless acolite (“Now Times Square!”). Rabbit holeall while maintaining the mass blood pressure of Blue America at high blood pressure. Even Google Maps I was taken away By this twaddle. Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer May Say publicly The Gulf idea is “strange” and “attractive”, but personally I should ask myself, “Why didn’t we think about this?”

Of course, airports sometimes get new names to honor famous people, but surprisingly, most presidents are represented in the current airport branding. The best known are Ronald Reagan of DC, JFK of New York, and George Bush of Houston. Abe Lincoln Airport in Springfield, Illinois is natural, but it’s vague for us who haven’t actually flew there. Also in Wichita, Ford in Grand Rapids, Clinton (actually both Clinton), Roosevelt Regional in Little Rock (i.e. Teddy, or about half the towns of North Dakota’s bustling Dickinson, and Gallatin in Tennessee. There is.

New Deal enthusiasts will be pleased to know that other Roosevelts have his own Monique airport. Most scenic Of all the presidential airports, it is basically because it is an air strip with no controlled towers at the foot of a volcano on the Caribbean island of the populous Netherlands. Tragically, it is not even possible to use the FDR airport code as it belongs to a regional airfield in Frederick, Oklahoma.

Actual text The ones of Rep. Warner’s proposed bill are simple. There is no epic preamble that speaks to how great Trump is. This simply directs the management procedures associated with changing the name of a BNA, such as laws modifications, contract adjustments, trademark revisions, and new signs. The strange factor is the designation of the upcoming airport bill as “Trump International Airport” without “Donald J.” part. So, which particular member of the first family of public corruption will become the face of the welcome mat to the world of Nashville? Maybe Warner doesn’t want us to know that he really means Tiffany.

This is not the first attempt to place a Donald Trump stamp in Music City. Who could forget state legislator Paul Sherrell invoice Two years ago, did it turn Rep. John Lewis Way in downtown Nashville into “President Donald Trump Boulevard”?

This is not the first submissive attempt to smear Nome de Trump at an unsuspecting airport. Last spring, 12 Republicans joined forces in DC, including the bright lights of Tennessee politicians Chuck Fleischman and Andy Ogles. measurement Congress will rename Washington Dulles Airport for the fearless orange leader. invoice It wasn’t even a committee hearing, but at least it included “Donald J.” At Donald J. Trump International Airport, you will have a clear idea of ​​which specific glyft avatars will be normalized to the aircraft.

This is not the first attempt to play the music district. Who could forget state legislator Paul Sherrell invoice Two years ago, did it turn Rep. John Lewis Way in downtown Nashville into “President Donald Trump Boulevard”? Sherrell ultimately retracted the bill, but not before calling the masterclass with racist irony suggestion The measure was pending that lynching could be a good option for the death penalty. Honestly, you can’t make something like this.

If the airport in Nashville is rebranded, I think we must endure the efforts to win the International Air Transport Association to replace BNA with the right, appropriate, new, three-letter airport code. Hardcore Trump fans have said that the unavailable code includes BTW (Build the Wall) that designates Batu Licin Airport in Indonesia and LHU (Lock Her Up) that is used at Lianshulu Airport in Namibia. You will be disappointed to know. Two available: DTS (ejecting swamps) and my favorite HMP (hang microphone pence). I am mandatory if you are struggling to report that it is probably available as DJT is not currently in use at another airport.

Trump’s Gulf Coast Rename Project may qualify as a cleverly ominous political obligation, but Warner’s airport gambit is simply not resourceful. Certainly, it will be successful in annoying Nashville for a week or two, but even many Republicans will wait until a prominent person is dead or at least retire from active public life. I know why it’s a good practice. (And still, there’s something long in the US history They name the right system after bad eggs. )

Trump still posts more reasons than he already has the three-year and 50-week show for quite some time, not wanting his name near important civic institutions. Let’s give him the opportunity.

Get the morning heading.
