(7,074 posts)That one would be a good candidate:
"Toxic waste dump site more than twice the size of Manhattan discovered in Pacific Ocean."

(26,326 posts)I continued to call DCA "Washington National" or "National" airport. Even after my airline told us to use "Washington-Reagan Airport" in our PA announcements to passengers (or radio calls to ATC). But I never uttered the new name, even when right-wing co-pilots tried to pressure me into conforming.

(1,527 posts)But having it named after Trump? Ego alert! Being from the DC area, I am used to calling it Dulles or IAD for those who know its IATA code.

Maybe they can rename a sewage system or prison after Trump.

Then add in "but their too stupid to realize their own embarrassment."

(3,693 posts)I'd be in favor of naming that after the Orange Asshole ®. But, not the whole airport.

Mabe "the worst toilet in Scotland", from the movie. "Trainspotting", but nothing else.
Those cowardly rethuglicans will do anything to suck-up to that deranged, putrified, soulless fuckwit. Just so he doesn't send an angry, hate-filled tweet, or truth, or whatever he does with those tiny, tiny hands of his.
The worst sack of shit in the world hasn't done a single thing to serve the American people, yet they want to start naming things after him? Bullshit!
