Texans Roast Proposal to Rename 'Death Trap' Highway After Trump: 'Everyone Hates I-35 Anyway' [View all]
A recently filed Texas bill aims to rename Interstate 35 in Travis County to the "President Donald J. Trump Highway."
The bill, introduced by Texas Rep. Joanne Shofner, proposes a new name for I-35, "indicating the designation as the President Donald J. Trump Highway." The legislation also aims to construct markers at each end of the interstate representing the designation.
If passed, the bill would enlist local federal departments to "design and construct markers indicating the designation as the President Donald J. Trump Highway and any other
appropriate information; and erect a marker at each end of the highway and at
appropriate intermediate sites along the highway."
Upon the bill's announcement, social media users took to online platforms to mock the designation and express criticisms of the 47th President.
"Everyone hates I-35 anyway," said one Facebook user.
"How about just calling it Insurrection Way or Traitor Trail?" wrote another.
