Thanksgiving is a holiday meant for giving thanks, spending time with family, and showing kindness. But Marjorie Taylor Greene, a far-right politician from Georgia, decided to make it about Donald Trump. On Thursday, she made a post on X (formerly called Twitter) and renamed Thanksgiving as “Trumpsgiving.”

In her post, Greene said “Trumpsgiving” means being thankful “that Kamala is NOT the President.”

She also added phrases like “Trump Won” and “liberal tears.” This post made her supporters very happy, but many others were upset.

Below are some reactions from the internet:

Many people were shocked by Greene’s post. They said Thanksgiving should bring people together, not divide them. Instead of celebrating the holiday with kindness, Greene turned it into a joke about politics.

Even Donald Trump didn’t make things better. On his Truth Social platform, he shared a message that was negative and full of complaints. Instead of wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving, he used the moment to attack his political enemies. This kind of behavior makes people more divided and angry, which is not what the holiday is about.

Greene’s post shows a bigger problem with politics today. It seems that some leaders are more focused on making Trump look good than on helping the people they were elected to serve. Instead of solving real problems like jobs, healthcare, and housing, they spend their time on slogans and social media posts.

For example, Greene recently became the leader of a new group in Congress that plans to cut public spending. While saving money sounds good, cutting programs like healthcare and education could hurt many Americans who depend on them.

The term “Trumpsgiving” has also been mocked online. According to the Urban Dictionary, it is “a day to be thankful for the absurd and never-ending Washington mess.” This shows that many people see Greene’s behavior as part of a bigger issue: the Republican Party under Trump has become more about drama than about real solutions.

Greene’s critics are not wrong. Her post was another example of how politics is often about creating division instead of bringing people together. One person even called it “the absurd and never-ending Washington show.” Many Americans feel that leaders like Greene are wasting time on political games while ignoring the real struggles of everyday people.

Thanksgiving is supposed to be about gratitude, kindness, and unity. Turning it into “Trumpsgiving” makes it about division, arguments, and politics. This is not what people want or need from their leaders.

As the holiday passes, we should remember what truly matters: family, gratitude, and helping each other. Leaders should focus on solving problems and bringing people together, not dividing them further. Next Thanksgiving, let’s leave the political jokes behind and focus on what really counts—kindness and togetherness.
