The Republican also recently said it’s “not too late” to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico (which he has attempted to rename once already) to the “Gulf of Trump.”

And now, Politico reported on the latest addition to the growing list:

Florida lawmakers gave final approval Thursday to legislation that would rename Palm Beach International Airport after President Donald Trump.

The proposal will now arrive on Gov. Ron DeSantis’ desk, as the Legislature works out how much it wants to spend — possibly upward of $5.5 million — on a massive rebranding at the airport mere minutes away from Mar-a-Lago.
