Donald Trump sided with Ohio Republicans on Monday night and blasted President Obama for changing the name of the tallest mountain in North America from Mt. McKinley to its Alaska Native name, Denali.
President Obama wants to change the name of Mt. McKinley to Denali after more than 100 years. Great insult to Ohio. I will change back!

After Obama announced his decision on Sunday, Ohio Republicans were outraged that the President would strip the name of former President William McKinley, a native of Ohio, from the mountain.
Yaaaaaaaawwwwn.
I thought Republicans believed it should only be changed by Congress not the President?!
Great insult to Ohio. Fu*ck the Alaskan’s and their brown immigrant eskimo’s.
I thought Republicans believed it should only be changed by a white President?!
See, I fixed it for you.
God knows we can’t allow those dirty Alaskans to decide what to call their mountain.
