PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. – A top Florida Republican Party official paints the image of South Florida becoming a place where Donald J. Trump could leave his legacy.
Sun Sentinel reports that Christian Ziegler’s vision includes a presidential library in Palm Beach and the renaming of Palm Beach International Airport. The airport is just over 6 km from the Mar-a-Lago Club, the president’s exclusive resort, which is often referred to as the “winter white house”.
Ziegler cited the frequency of Air Force One flights to the airport countless times during Trump’s four-year term.
The Daily Beast reported that Trump asked assistants and advisers about the process of getting an airport named for a former US president.
Lacy Larson, a spokeswoman for Palm Beach International Airport, told The Sun Sentinel that airport officials had not received inquiries into a name change. It would probably take a vote from the Palm Beach County Commission to change the name of an airport.
