Ohio GOP lawmakers propose naming state park after Trump

An Ohio state lawmaker this week introduced legislation to rename a local park after former President Trump.

State Rep. Mike Loychik (R) introduced House Bill 261 on Monday with the support of his party, noting that the legislation if passed will serve to "honor the commitment and dedication that our 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump bestowed upon the great people of Trumbull County," according to a statement.

Under the bill, Ohio's Mosquito Lake State Park will be renamed Donald J. Trump State Park, in an effort to celebrate the former president who led in the state in both the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections. It would also allocate $300,000 towards changing the signs in the park, the bill noted.

"I witnessed the unprecedented and astounding support that President Trump received from my constituents across the 63rd District and Mosquito Lake State Park," Loychik said of his proposal in the statement.

It's been neglected for years and it's a mess.

Have at it, Ohio. In the not-so-long run, you'll have a toxic waste dump.
