President-elect Donald Trump has once again suggested he wants to revert the name of North America’s tallest mountain — Alaska’s Denali — to Mount McKinley, wading into a sensitive and decades-old conflict about what the peak should be called.

    Not sure why Trump or Ohio should have any say whatsoever in what to name a mountain in Alaska.

    Trump always asks himself “what is the most racist thing I can get away with?” And then runs toward that

    Don’t fall for the distractions, focus on the destructive and fascist things he wants to do.

    Murkowski openly advocated for the Obama administration to rename Mt. McKinely as Denali…this feels like a really good way to piss off one of the most important votes in his party (for absolutely no reason).

    When Iwas there in the 90’s the locals called it Denali, not McKinley.
