Is this Hero Worship for a Felon?

Donald Trump Airport? Trump on the $500 bill? Republicans can't stop honoring ex-president

Donald Trump on the $500 bill. A Congressional gold medal. An international airport.

[b]It’s the Summer of Trump in the House of Representatives, where Republican lawmakers have flooded the chamber with bills and resolutions honoring the former president, convicted felon and 2024 GOP frontrunner.[/b]

These largely symbolic gestures are a way to get noticed by the Republican powerhouse, who can make or break politicians with his endorsements, according to a former member of Congress.

[b]Earlier this month, Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., introduced a bill requiring the U. S. Treasury to start printing $500 bills again after 79 years, with the pricey legal tender now “featuring a portrait” of Trump in place of the late President William McKinley. Gosar said the proposal was meant to draw attention to high inflation under Joe Biden.[/b]

There’s cash, and then there’s gold.

[b]In May, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., pushed a bill to award Trump the Congressional Gold Medal for his administration’s foreign policy successes.[/b]

“They’re all trying to curry favor from the former president,” said Fred Upton, a Republican who represented southwest Michigan in the House for 26 years before retiring in 2023. “They want to be recognized by him.”
