Somebody really wants Dear Leader’s endorsement in the primary run-off.

CBS Austin reports: Cornyn introduces bill to rename US-287 as ‘Trump Interstate’.

U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, introduced legislation Monday to designate US Highway 287 as a future interstate highway named in honor of President Donald Trump.

The I-47 Future Interstate Act would rename the roughly 1,800-mile corridor, which runs from Port Arthur, Texas, to Choteau, Montana, as Interstate 47, to be known as the “Trump Interstate.” Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., is a co-sponsor of the bill.

More evidence, by the way, of a president affecting primaries to shape the behavior of party adherents.
