A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump on Thursday, accelerating a push by the US president and supporters to plaster his name and image on everything from national landmarks to banknotes.
The Republican leader’s son Eric celebrated by landing in the private family Boeing 757 — so-called “Trump Force One” — at what had been known as Palm Beach International Airport for nearly half a century.
“A beautiful day,” a grinning Eric Trump said on Fox News at the newly minted President Donald J. Trump International Airport, a short drive from the family’s Mar-a-Lago golf resort and compound.
The airport renaming was signed into law by Florida’s Republican governor, Ron DeSantis.
