Apologies for more trump stuff on your feed, this hurt me personally.

I was born in Alaska, and I have never heard a single person there call it mckinley, despite the vast majority of my time there having been before it was “officially” recognized as Denali.

Now this rat bastard wants to change it, despite people calling it Denali long before any name was written down for the mountain. His greed is serving to lessen our culture in the popular eye.

P.S.

I know that the federal name isn’t literally “the official name”, but I’d be surprised if this doesn’t cause a lot of people outside the state to start calling it that.

mckinley is lowercase on purpose

Edit: I want to mention that this is not entirely serious, as can be seen in me calling him a ‘rat bastard’. This is obviously false, as he grew up in a loving rat family.

ARGH

    From Wikipedia, he said:

    McKinley was a very good, maybe a great president. They took his name off Mount McKinley. That’s what they do to people. President McKinley was the president that was responsible for creating a vast sum of money. That’s one of the reasons that we’re going to bring back the name of Mount McKinley, because I think he deserves it.

      What a profoundly… “Trumpian” idea of a great president

      Gross.
