I mean, it could always be worse, he could insist the new name is Mount Trump.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Heard about him wanting to rename it before hearing what he wanted to rename it to and actually just assumed he was. I'm genuinely surprised he's not tbh
Petty and dumb but no one's gonna die over this and maybe it'll get a few dumb MAGAs in their $100,000 GMC trucks to cry that they now have the "woke" trim level.
Idea for any entrepreneurs out there: go ahead and start making some "McKinley" badge sets in GMC typeface and throw them up on Amazon. You can have that one for free
Big picture very stable genius focusing on what's really needed by this nation!
What a dolt.
Surely, this will lower the price of eggs!
Wiki:
The tariff was not well received by Americans who suffered a steep increase in prices. In the 1890 election, Republicans lost their majority in the House with the number of seats they won reduced by nearly half, from 171 to 88.[14] In the 1892 presidential election, Harrison was soundly defeated by Grover Cleveland, and the Senate, House, and Presidency were all under Democratic control. Lawmakers immediately started drafting new tariff legislation, and in 1894, the Wilson-Gorman Tariff passed, which lowered US tariff averages.[15] The 1890 tariff was also poorly received abroad. Protectionists in the British Empire used it to argue for tariff retaliation and imperial trade preference.[16]
It'll go over just as well this time...
For those curious, this was when Cleveland was elected to his second non-consecutive term.
Looks like the incoming administration is specifically looking for racist things they can put on their agenda.
With all that productive worker deporting, health care destruction, billionaire coddling, diplomatic relations destroying, and doing as many racist things as they can manage, they will have a busy term with no time for actually governing.
Hopefully donvict represents the last gasp of the Angry White Man.
He should follow the will of the people and call it Mt. McMountface.
I’m in!
Also, renumber the presidents, adding Jefferson Davis and removing Obama.
Sorry Donnie. Has to get through Congress along with all the other "deals" you used this weekend to deflect your utter failure of last week.
I actually did not even realize the name had changed. Heck I did not even realize alaska had done so awhile back.
Alaskans have always called it Denali, so the official change was widely appreciated.
honestly I would like us to strip all things named after individuals. its bullshit. no one person deserves that.
