At this point, we all know good and well that not a single holiday or special occasion can come and go without former President Donald Trump doing everything in his power to make sure as much focus and attention as possible is centered on him for the day.
Easter, Thanksgiving, the Fourth of July — none of these notable days in the United States can come to pass without Donald Trump barging onto the scene like a wacked out version of the Kool-Aid man.
Christmas was no exception to this rule.
Early yesterday morning, on Christmas day, the one-term, twice-impeached ex-president released a statement through his spokeswoman Liz Harrington (because Twitter didn’t give him his account back for Christmas). Trump Christmas message was short, brief, and to the point — but even in just two short sentences, the man managed to stuff his self-serving agenda in Jesus’ “birthday”, all the same.
“Merry Christmas to all,” Trump penned in his official holiday statement to the American people, before quickly following it up with “We will Make America Great Again!”

To make matters all the worse, Trump signed his short Christmas message, “President Donald J. Trump.”
As you can imagine, the ex-president’s critics (which are plentiful) were quick to tear Donald’s Christmas Day greeting to absolute shreds — not only for his nasty self-serving attitude but also to remind him that he absolutely is not, under any circumstances, still the President of the United States:
He isn’t the president. Oh, and Biden is working hard to make America great by fixing the messes trump created.

If he just said Merry Christmas to all, and laid off the propaganda, I would love to share his Joy.
But no, he can’t just Express something normal, everything’s got his gimmick attached— Seymour Foley (@FoleySeymour) December 25, 2021
Not if the majority of Americans can help it you won’t.

He’s NOT “President”, he’s Mr. Trump. The title is granted only to the current office holder, not the former ones. The same is true for all other offices except for an Ambassador holding lifetime appointment. Check State Dept. protocol for proper use.

Nice try, though, Donnie. Frankly, I’m impressed. All it took was 2 sentences to get your ass handed to you.
