Ohio Republicans are being made fun of online after proposing a bill to rename Mosquito Lake State Park as Donald J. Trump State Park.

The bill would also allocate $300k in taxpayer money to adjust the state's signage to reflect the change in name.


Freshman Republican Representative Mike Loychik, who sponsored the bill, issued a statement, saying:

"This legislation is meant 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."
This enthusiasm for our former president was also historic throughout the state of Ohio last November as he pushed for initiatives and policies that was very well-received with my constituency and the state."








Although President Trump lost the 2020 general election, he won the state of Ohio by a wider margin than any candidate in history.



Democratic Representative Rich Brown commented on the bill, saying:

"Ohioans' are struggling with an addiction crisis, economic disruption, and a pandemic that the other guy said would disappear just like magic. Instead of addressing these pressing issues, Ohio House Republicans are spending their time flattering the Insurrectionist in Chief."



The Ohio Department of Natural Resources also came to the defense of the park's current name, commenting:

"The name has withstood the test of time. Mosquito Creek Lake was formed by damming Mosquito Creek back in 1944. Since then, Mosquito Lake State Park has become one of Ohio's best state parks, best fishing lakes, and has one of Ohio's most important wildlife refuges."

Ohio Republicans have also sought to turn June 14, Trump's birthday, into a state holiday.

It seems Ohio's favorite kind of President is a twice-impeached one.

Niecy Nash Hilariously Rips Colman Domingo For Over-The-Top Outfit He Wore To Officiate Her Wedding

A time-honored tradition of the North American wedding aesthetic is that the bride is the focal point of the wedding. Wearing all white and dazzling, she's meant to stand out from the rest of the crowd.

But if the wedding officiant shows up looking like a "beautiful bumblebee" fashionista, who do you think the audience will focus on? The officiant or the bride?

Trump Ripped After Posting Disturbing Parody Music Video About His Attack On Iran

President Donald Trump is facing harsh criticism after he shared a music video featuring the 1980 song "Bomb Iran"—a parody of The Regents song "Barbara Ann" that is best known for being covered by the Beach Boys—amid a ceasefire between Israel and Iran that could further inflame tensions in the Middle East.

The controversial parody song by Vince Vance & the Valiants plays over footage of B-2 stealth bombers, the same aircraft used to drop 14 GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs on Iranian nuclear facilities, including the Fordow enrichment plant, Natanz complex, and Isfahan site.
