Donald Trump wants a new NFL stadium named after him.
Of course, he does.
The sitting President wants the new Washington Commanders stadium - which is planned for $3.7 billion - named after him, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Per Schefter and Don Van Natta Jr., there "have been back-channel communications with a member of the Commanders’ ownership group, led by Josh Harris, to express Trump’s desire to have the domed stadium in the nation’s capital bear his name."
“That would be a beautiful name, as it was President Trump who made the rebuilding of the new stadium possible,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told ESPN on Friday night via email.
In July, Trump threatened to hold up the Commanders’ stadium deal if the team doesn’t switch its name back to the Washington Redski
