President Donald Trump on Tuesday praised Florida after Palm Beach County approved renaming a busy stretch of roadway after the commander-in-chief.
The Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday to approve a resolution that would rename a 4-mile stretch of Southern Boulevard that runs from Palm Beach International Airport to the president’s home at the Mar-a-Lago resort.

« It has been brought to my attention that the Great State of Florida, which I won BIG three times, and where I am a proud Resident, has renamed an important four-mile stretch of Southern Boulevard, in Palm Beach County, to ‘PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP BOULEVARD,’ » Trump wrote on Truth Social late Tuesday.

« Thank you to Palm Beach County, Governor Ron DeSantis, and all of Florida’s great State Lawmakers, on granting me this wonderful honor! I LOVE FLORIDA! »
The resolution comes after Gov. DeSantis signed legislation directing the Florida Department of Transportation to erect a sign along the stretch of Southern Boulevard honoring Trump.
The legislation also calls for another section of the road to be renamed « PBSO Motorman Highway, » in honor of three motorcycle deputies with the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office who were killed in a crash last year.
The new signs are slated to be installed later this year. The names are ceremonial, meaning postal addresses and emergency-response systems will continue to use Southern Boulevard.
