The President's order to rename Denali, North America's highest peak, back to Mount McKinley does not agree with Alaska senator.

As part of a torrent of decisions he issued hours after taking office, President Donald Trump declared that the name of America’s tallest mountain be changed from Denali to Mount McKinley, and that the Gulf of Mexico be renamed “The Gulf of America.”

The man after whom Trump wants to rename North America's highest peak had no connection to Alaska or Denali. So what is the story? Trump thinks he "deserves" it.

The tallest peak in North America has been named Denali since 2015 when its name was officially changed under former President Barack Obama.

President Donald Trump announced the name change during his inaugural address, along with renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America”.

President Donald Trump announced the name of Alaska’s highest peak — and North America’s tallest at over 20,000 feet — Denali, would be changed back to Mount McKinley. Trump was sworn in as the 47th president on Monday, and made the announcement in his inaugural address, also promising to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico.

The post included a link to the New York Post, which reports it has learned that Trump will call for the Gulf of Mexico to become the Gulf of America. Denali will return to Mount McKinley — President Barack Obama changed the name of the continent’s highest mountain in 2015.
