No. Just no. We’ve got enough shit to rip his name off of in 3 years - let’s not add to the list.

May I suggest the Trump Epstein bridge?

[–] Asafum@lemmy.world 11 points 4 hours ago

Only if the next move is to demolish the bridge.

I'm unfamiliar with the Zavikon Island Bridge but if the renaming doesn't work out, the original Tacoma Narrows bridge could be another good candidate.
