This is awesome!

The House GOP just advanced a proposal that would re-name the Kennedy Center Opera House in First Lady Melania Trump’s honor.

If passed, the new name would be “First Lady Melania Trump Opera House.”

Melania Trump deserves this honor more than anyone else I can think of.

Re-naming an Opera House after the most classy, elegant, and graceful First Lady of our time is so fitting.

Melania also serves as the Honorary Chair of the Board of Trustees at the Kennedy Center, so it’s also a way to recognize her support.

Rep. Simpson, who introduced the proposal, had this to say about why Melania should be given the honor:

Many patriots on X agree:

On the other hand, Democrats are absolutely furious.

The proposal to rename the Opera House after Melania Trump was added as an amendment on a spending bill.

Some House Democrats are now accusing Republicans of “sneaking it in” to stir division.

Per ABC News:

An amendment changing the name of the 2,364-seat theater, the second largest in the arts complex, was approved along party lines by the House Appropriations Committee on Tuesday, and would become law if Congress approves the House GOP spending bill that funds the Interior Department, Environmental Protection Agency and other agencies.

“This is an excellent way to recognize [the first lady’s] support and commitment to promoting the arts,” said Rep. Mike Simpson, R-Idaho, chairman of the House Interior and Environment Appropriations Subcommittee.

It’s the latest move by Republicans and the White House to turn the traditionally bipartisan Kennedy Center in a more Trumpian direction, after President Donald Trump fired board members appointed by former President Joe Biden and replaced them with his own supporters.

Rep. Chellie Pingree, D-Maine, said Republicans “snuck in” the “divisive” proposal to change the name of the Opera House and that Republicans have not technically approved a name change for a portion of the center.

“The Republicans have now given the president six times the normal amount of money to run the Kennedy Center, carte blanche over who will be on the board, and how different parts of the Kennedy Center — perhaps the whole Kennedy Center itself — will be named, and this amendment confirms that,” Pingree said in subcommittee hearing.

Salty much?
