https://www.rawstory.com/trump-lost-2650082365/
Former President Donald Trump has long dreamed of having his name attached to one of the United States' most prominent international airports. His suggestion: Trump International.
However, Palm Beach County has confirmed that the former president's dream will not be coming to fruition at its airport.
According to the Sun-Sentinel, the idea of renaming the airport in honor of Trump was recently touted by Christian Ziegler, who serves as a Sarasota County commissioner and the vice-chairman of the Florida Republican Party. However, County Commissioner Melissa McKinlay has made it clear that she does not support the idea.
During a brief discussion with the publication, McKinlay explained why she, along with five other county commissioners, are not in agreement with the prospect of the airport being renamed after the twice-impeached, one-term president.

Bloomberg:
The average Biden metro is home to almost 1.3 million people, more than four times the size of the average Trump metro, with just slightly more than 300,000 people. As metros get smaller in size, Bidens share of the vote drops off, while Trumps rises.
