Trump Unveils New White House Christmas Card: Merry Christmas Is Back - usmbacker - 11-28-2017 09:13 PM

Quote:On Monday, the Trump family debuted their holiday card, which wishes Americans a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, instead of the generic, more politically correct, ‘Happy Holidays.’
That’s different from last year’s card sent out by President Obama, which included a family photo and wished Americans a ‘joyous holiday season.’
The Trump card is signed by President Trump, first lady Melania Trump and even 11-year-old Barron and was displayed in the White House’s ‘Bookseller’s’ area, as the Christmas decorations were unveiled today.
The Merry Christmas card keeps Trump’s pledge to ‘say Merry Christmas again’ when he campaigned.
He repeated the pledge most recently in October at the Voter Values Summit when he said: ‘They don’t use the word ‘Christmas’ because it’s not politically correct,’ Trump said. ‘We’re saying ‘Merry Christmas’ again.’

ol' boy isn't that orange..... [serious] he still enjoys the sentiment of all having a white and Merry Christmas (the former is not much of an option in the 'burg)[/serious]

Anyone expecting a Holiday present, you can get a refund on that Christmas present you bought.

Are they going to rename Bing Crosby's "Holiday Inn", "Christmas Inn?"

Weird, I cant imagine the Christ of the Bible wanting anything to do with Trump, but I suppose guess him writing Christmas on his holiday cards is more important to many of you than him actually living by any of Christs teachings. Grats on the perfect example of completely vapid virtue signalling though guys.

Surprise me and expound on what you know about the ""Christ of the Bible". Is there another one we should know about?

Why? Was it renamed from Christmas Inn to Holiday Inn at some point?

I just meant following the scripture itself, and not one of the confabulations of him that some people seem to have.
But, per usual, the actual comment being made is ignored.

You can't expect someone who supports tearing down old traditions - and institutions - in favor of new, progressive ones that make them feel like they've created something original to understand what this move back to a time honored tradition means to millions who think that tradition is comfortingly reliable and that PC is ruining an entire generation.

If it's half as bad as conservatives getting triggered over people saying "Happy Holidays," then it'll be pretty entertaining.

Just refer back to the Beatitudes and then focus on the empty jesture of Donald Trump's gesture... Perhaps of he lived his life by these, this simple action might have a little meaning.
The Beatitudes
Matthew 5:1-12
5 One day as he saw the crowds gathering, Jesus went up on the mountainside and sat down. His disciples gathered around him, 2 and he began to teach them.
3
“God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him,[a]
for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.
4
God blesses those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
5
God blesses those who are humble,
for they will inherit the whole earth.
6
God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice,[b]
for they will be satisfied.
7
God blesses those who are merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
8
God blesses those whose hearts are pure,
for they will see God.
9
God blesses those who work for peace,
for they will be called the children of God.
10
God blesses those who are persecuted for doing right,
for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.
