Liberals are trying to remove President Trump from EVERYTHING!

Members of New York’s State Assembly advanced a bill that could potentially rename Donald J. Trump State Park.

In a 14-7 vote, the state legislature’s tourism committee advanced the bill.

Now the bill will go to legislatures who will vote on whether the park should be renamed.

Here’s the kicker though.

Trump donated the 436-acre park to the state of New York and now they are trying to remove his name from it!

The Hill covered the potential name change of Donald J. Trump State Park and shared these details:

Members of a New York State Assembly panel voted Wednesday to advance a bill that if passed and signed into law would rename Donald J. Trump State Park in Upstate New York.

The state legislature’s tourism committee voted 14-7 to advance the bill. Democrats in the state legislature have long pushed to rename the 436-acre park in Putnam County, which has been largely unused since 2015.

“Our parklands should be reflective of New Yorkers that we can be proud of, New Yorkers that have expressed our values,” said Assemblywoman Nily Rozic (D), who sponsored the bill, Politico reported. “There are a lot of other New Yorkers who are worthy of the honor of having a park named after themselves.”

The state obtained the land in 2006 when Trump donated it after intending to build a golf course on the property but never doing so. When Trump donated the property, he did so on the condition his name be “prominently displayed at least at each entrance to each property.”

Politico gave these details:

The state Assembly has advanced a bill to rename New York’s Donald J. Trump State Park.

Democratic legislators have been seeking to rename the park, a dilapidated and unused collection of more than 400 acres located about eight miles east of Peekskill, since 2015. A committee vote on Wednesday was the first concrete step toward that happening.

“Our parklands should be reflective of New Yorkers that we can be proud of, New Yorkers that have expressed our values,” said Assemblywoman Nily Rozic (D-Queens), who sponsored the bill that was approved by the Tourism Committee. “There are a lot of other New Yorkers who are worthy of the honor of having a park named after themselves.”

Rozic first proposed legislation on the subject four years ago, when she introduced a bill to rename the park after murdered Charlottesville protester Heather Heyer. The measure that moved Wednesday simply requires the state to come up with a new name.

As Democrats are trying to remove Trump from everything, they are forgetting they’ll never be able to remove him from our patriotic hearts!
