The President's order to rename Denali, North America's highest peak, back to Mount McKinley does not agree with Alaska senator.
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.
On President Donald Trump's Inauguration Day, Governor Ron DeSantis made Florida the first state to reference the "Gulf of America" in an executive order when he issued a state of emergency due to cold weather.

The order will rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, and Mount Denali to Mount McKinley, which was the official name recognized by the federal government from 1917 until 2015.
President Donald Trump said the Gulf of Mexico will be called the Gulf of America, while the Denali mountain peak will revert to its former name, Mount McKinley.
