During the first year of his second term, Donald Trump and his allies have initiated numerous efforts to name various public and commercial entities after him. This includes federal institutions like the United States Institute of Peace and the Kennedy Center, a new class of battleships, and a transit corridor called the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity, established through a deal between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Additionally, local officials in Florida are dedicating a road to him. Donald Trump's businesses have also launched new ventures such as the Trump Mobile phone company and a cryptocurrency memecoin named Donald Trump.

Supporters, primarily from the United States — Republican Party (United States), argue these tributes are well-deserved, citing Donald Trump's achievements in peace deals and other policy areas.
