CHOO CHOO! Here’s how Israel wants to reward Trump for Jerusalem recognition…

Israel is apparently so overjoyed that President Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital that they want to name a train station after him. But not just any old train station:

NY POST – Israel is poised to reward President Trump for recognizing Jerusalem as its capital – by naming a train station near the Western Wall after him, according to reports.

Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz is going full steam ahead with a plan to extend the city’s future high-speed rail line to the Western Wall, where he wants Trump’s name to grace a station, Ynet News of Israel reported.

“The Western Wall is the holiest site of the Jewish people,” Katz said, “and I have decided to name the train station leading to it after the president of the United States, Donald Trump, following his courageous and historic decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel.”

The “Donald John Trump station” is one of two stations proposed for the extension of a line nearing completion between Tel Aviv and the western entrance to Jerusalem.

Katz called the rail extension to the Old City “the Transportation Ministry’s most important national project.” The station would allow visitors to reach “the beating heart of the Jewish people — the Western Wall and the Temple Mount,” he said.

Transportation Ministry spokesman Avner Ovadia said Wednesday the project is estimated to cost more than $700 million and, if approved, would take four years to complete.

Wow, that’s kind of a big deal considering it will lead to the Western Wall in Jerusalem. Trump will love it I’m sure.

So will we be able to call that section of train from the “Donald John Trump station” to the Western Wall…the “Trump Train”?
