President Donald Trump is renaming Denali to its previous name, Mount McKinley. It is among the many first actions that Trump is taking early in his presidency.
McKinley was named after a president who served from 1897 until his assassination in 1901. A Republican, he made Republicans a dominant force as a new party, standing for progress and industrial might.
Then, in 2015, President Barack Obama renamed it Denali with an executive order. Trump is undoing that action as he returns to the White House.
The national park is still named Denali.
He said he is also renaming the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America” which covers all the Americas in North, Central and South America that touch the Gulf.
Trump will also withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement. This is the second time he has removed America from the agreement that was adopted, most recently by President Joe Biden in 2021.
He also hinted today that he will be pardoning or giving clemency to the Jan. 6, 2021 political prisoners.
I am looking forward to how China feels about the Panama Canal. That will be fun.
I don’t agree with renaming the Gulf of Mexico, which has half a millennium of history behind it, but I like the other moves here.
Brands typically enhance valuation. DJT has more branding experience than all of the rest of presidents and candidates combined. It is a no-brainer for him to build the brand.
Personally, I like the changes. Bold move, Trump.
Since all of the criminals who tried to prosecute you, or even kill you, you can get even by forcing them to acknowledge your presidential preferences. Now THATs the way to get even.👍
If Trump successfully negotiates Ukraine back under the Russian flag, maybe we can rename the Gulf of Alaska into the Gulf of Trump? I mean, really, who would care except Alaska Natives and Democrats? The Russians would love it, and the Canadians don’t matter.
The Paris Climate Accord was nothing but a money laundering scheme by Obama and other world elite. The US paid millions for green energy projects in third world countries with zero accountability. Thankfully that cash cow has been put out to pasture.
From 2015 during the year of adoption of the Paris Agreement (formally adopted December 12, 2015):
The U.N.’s climate chief, Christiana Figueres, says openly that the aim of the talks is “to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the industrial revolution.” That outlook will be welcome among attendees like the delegation from Bolivia. That country’s official material submitted for the talks proposes a “lasting solution” for climate change: “We must destroy capitalism.”
Thumbs on these name changes.
BIG thumbs down on Trump creating a new tax bureacrcy to charge Americans more taxes.
I used to own a manufacturing company. I passed all costs on to the consumer for the end product. That’s what companies do. Hihger tariffs that Trump wants will be passed along to Americans. This will be inflationary.
This is why I don’t trust Trump, a former Democrat.
You could have a company that has to compete against Chinese product coming into this country at a way cheaper rate than when you can produce it. What would you do to level the playing field?
American workers went 20 $30 an hour so our products cost more than these Third World countries that the labor is pennies to the dollar.
Mark, I want free markets. So do most Americans, even if they don’t know it. Every Walmart or Home Depot shopper enjoys lower prices because there are people still willing to work for less then $3 dollars an hour overseas.
I don’t want to bring back American workers if I’ll have to pay two to three time more for every product. Hell, I’m not happy about a new truck costing $100,000 or more. BS.
Unhappy he is converting back to “Mt McKinley” from Denali. I am sure most Alaska natives agree with me. Denali has so much more meaning to Alaskans, especially since McKinley never set foot in Alaska.
Interesting to see if the Gulf is changed to Gulf of America, as well as seeing how China reacts to the US taking back the Panama Canal. Should be very interesting.
A shiny toy for the basket of deplorables
He renamed Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America to void Biden’s EO on drilling – Agree
Paris Climate Hoax – Agree with withdrawal
Free J6’ers – Agree
Rename Denali – OH HELL NO
I am laughing like Hilary Clinton on the dais at the moron Trump and his juvenile behavior
The rebels on Stone Mountain in Georgia should be defaced for their attempt to destroy the progress and industrial might of our great nation and replace it with a failed system based on slavery.
Let’s just rename China while we’re at it:
Maodung.
I just looked through Trump’s executive orders quickly, but I didn’t see anything that would lower the price of eggs. Did I miss something?
Nope. Expect most prices to increase.
And blue hair! He’s going to outlaw blue hair. And “Coexist” bumper stickers! Those too!
