http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/356979-trump-offered-to-change-denalis-name-back-to-mckinley-alaska-senatorsAlaska lawmakers reportedly declined President Trumps offer to change the name of North America's largest mountain from Denali back to Mount McKinley.
It started off as a normal Friday night in the Trump household a few years ago, Trump was yelling at the TV and Melania was having sex with some random guy in the other room, and then Trump heard Melania living out one of her fantasies as she yelled out "Give it to me Barack" while she climaxed, and it's never been the same.
From that night on Trump has not been able to think of anything other than destroying President Obama's legacy and life of every Black man he possibly can along with it.

It's a common problem at The Hill's site, they don't do a very good job of proof reading

Then the writers are doing a good job either. Just the other day they used Tulsa instead of Tesla

I don't know how much I'd trust a journalist who doesn't know the difference between "amenable" and "amiable".

It seems the auto spell checker throws in quite a few corrections that don't make much sense

and editor. "The spellcheck made me do it," isn't good enough.

Would it surprise anyone if he wanted to re-name the largest mountain in America "Mount Trump"?
