WASHINGTON, Feb 5 - U.S. President Donald Trump offered last month to drop his hold on funding for a key $16 billion New York Hudson River tunnel project in exchange for Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer supporting the renaming of Washington Dulles Airport and New York Penn Station after Trump, a source told Reuters Thursday.

Punchbowl News first reported the offer citing four sources that was swiftly rejected by Schumer, who told the White House he did not have the power the rename the landmarks, a source confirmed to Reuters. The White House did not respond to a request for comment and Schumer's office declined to comment.

1. He makes everything about him!

His goddamn ego!

[dgauss]

2. When he goes completely insane,

he will demand that planet earth be renamed to Planet Trump. Republicans might go along with it.

3. How about Blue Plains instead? I'd be fine with that!

It’s the best sewage treatment facility in the world, ever!!!

4. Trump's like an old dog that's senile and pissing all over the house, marking his territory.

6. THIS CANNOT BE FUCKING TRUE.

If it is , it is beyond ABSURD.

Does this fucking thin-skined narcissistic man-baby think this is NORMAL??

You fucking treasonous PIG, don't you'll realize you will be VILIFIED FOR ALL ETERITY just as bad as HITLER????????

WHAT A FUCKING IGNORANT, IMBECILIC ASSHOLE.

7. Trump holding up federal funds already approved and designated by

Congress is illegal. Court will mandate the funds be released.

There will delays and cost overruns as a result, but the names of the transportation hubs won't be changed.

11. re: "Court will mandate the funds be released." - That doesn't mean he will do it.

He has immunity for anything related to his duties as president. So the only recourse if he fails to do something he "must" do would be impeachment... but this congress won't impeach. And even if the next congress impeaches, they won't get the 2/3 needed to convict. This is why he's free to do anything he wants, and ignore anything he wants to ignore.

13. Hoping for TACO.

This may not be a battle he wants to lose.

Many businesses in NYC depend upon employees showing up for work. Stock prices depend upon it.

Cut the cord of transportation and the whole U.S. economy suffers.

8. It'll be a month he wants next

If it was right for Julius and Augustus Caesar, then surely he deserves it too???!!!

The Exon Valdez was a real Tr*mp up.
