Republicans went on a naming spree. So, yes they will, at least for awhile - until all the Epstein files are released and the squalid details of Piggy's pedophilia are exposed to the whole world. Then it will be like after Watergate and Nixon's resignation when nobody would admit to ever having voted for him.

It will be like they are waking from a dream or sedation.

Or maybe not.

Remember how the GOP wanted to name at least one major site in every state after Reagan and wanted him on the dime? After another term or two, that passion faded.

Same will happen with Trump. At first, they're going to be loud in their grief but as new shiny things distract them, it will fade away. Then he'll be a bad memory as even his die-hards forget the details.
