As we all knew, Trump is now trying to add his name to the Kennedy Center.
Perhaps the DC government could honor him by naming the DC Blue Plains Advanced Waste Water Treatment plant for Trump?
How about all you DC residents get petitions started.

The John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant is a sewage treatment plant in Danbury, Connecticut, named after the English-American comedian and political satirist John Oliver. The plant was completely renovated in response to a 2008 order from state and federal agencies to address the inability of the existing sewage system to curtail phosphorus concentrations in wastewater, as well as other environmental issues. After Oliver made fun of Danbury on his show, Last Week Tonight, Danbury mayor Mark Boughton responded by offering to rename their $100-million sewage plant for Oliver. Boughton later told reporters that it was a joke, but after Oliver offered $55,000 to local charities in exchange for the plant's renaming, the city agreed to officially rename the site in his honor. Construction began in 2019, and was finished in October 2020, with Oliver personally attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
