It's called Denali and if I hear anyone call it Mt. McKinley in my presence I'll sock them.
How does this lower the price of eggs? ™
Easy one: it doesn’t. But it makes his stupid, stupid, base feel better about their failings. Thank god he renamed something. I thought he wouldn’t get anything done! America first! Looks like the deep state is at it again, somehow or some way or not at all! Fuck my freedoms!
Look at those fragile liberals getting all woke about a stupid name. Ha ha. Eggs? What eggs?
"Eggs" have now been renamed to "American Marbles".
I knew about the Gulf renaming, but not about switching McKinley again.
This is so stupid and pointless. Like Stalin or Kim Jong building statues and making wild statements about their country's greatness while people starve or get thrown in camps.
It's because Obama is the one that did the renaming. It's just petty revenge nonsense.
You’re probably right about it just being petty, but…
President McKinley also annexed territory (Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, Philippines, Cuba, etc.), implemented insane tariffs, and pushed to keep the US on the gold standard.
Looks like Jackson isn’t the only president that Trump idolizes.
But the Republican Congress members of Alaska wanted it. They are against the change back from quotes I have seen.
Yep. But Trump doesn't care about that, he just cares about removing a piece of Obama's legacy.
It will always be Denali
Its name is the Gulf of Mexico.
He could've called it the "Gulf of the Americas" (North, South, and Central), a nice, all encompassing and decent name, but no... he had to go full Stupid Nationalist Dictator.
The division is the point. The distraction is the point. Anything unifying is a hard pass.
Also, he's a white supremacist & neo-Nazi. Don't forget that part.
What a great use of time and money.

Guess I'm not against deadnaming, after all.
That's only a thing for people. Inanimate objects can't be deadnamed.
Yes, I realize that. Mea culpa for trying to be a teensy bit funny.
That was your last warning
Nah, that's stupid as fuck.
Wow, eggs are so cheap now!
Does this mean GMC has to rename their vehicle to the GMC Mt McKinley?
The way the title is worded, I thought they'd renamed Denali to "Gulf of America"
