Trump tweets that people are 'saying Merry Christmas again,' credits himself

[left-of-center2012]

President Trump says he’s pleased that people are “saying Merry Christmas again.”



I know I never thought of saying "Merry Christmas" until I heard Donald Trump use the phrase.
Then I thought,
wow, that's kind of neat;
so I started using it.

1. lol

[DUgosh]

2. Maybe next year

We can start saying E Pluribus Unum again

[Lochloosa]

3. What a dick. Can't he just Merry Christmas. Period.

[dalton99a]

4. Merry Christmas enjoys a renaissance after a thousand-year hiatus

Thank you, President Trump.

Now, go fuck yourself

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Oh, is that what I'm supposed to be saying today?

When did people stop saying it? All I've been hearing for the past week or so was "Merry Christmas," so this must be a different "Merry Christmas." Has everyone been pronouncing it wrong, or what?

[SummerSnow]

6. whatever.

[BlueSpot]

7. Did his lawyers tell him that too?

[NastyRiffraff]

8. Remember when Obama banned "Merry Christmas"?

Me neither.

To the people who are traumatized when someone wishes you "Happy Holidays," my wish for you is that's the worst thing you experience in your entire life.

9. Ikr

And they call US snowflakes.

[HopeAgain]

13. Yup, Happy Holidays!!

[MustLoveBeagles]

14. Thank you

Happy Holidays to you as well.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

17. Obama wishing us a Merry Christmas:

21. I can just imagine a group of martyrs

hanging out in Heaven, comparing persecution stories. After the older ones take turns telling about stuff like being eaten by lions, or burned at the stake, or sent to concentration camps, it's time for the recently departed American to relate her experience.

"It was really hard for Christians, where I come from. I mean, people kept saying Happy Holidays! In December! It was awful!"

[Cha]

29. Oh oh.. Obamas wishing everyone

a Merry Christmas. Nice and early, too.

Merry Christmas to you and your Family, Riff!

[NastyRiffraff]

31. Right back atcha Cha!

Hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas.

[Cha]

34. Did! Mahalo, Riff!

[IMnotU]

10. I really believe Trump is insane

I have wintered in the Dominican Republic and for the last 17 years every winter at this time people tell me "Merry Christmas." Trump lives in a world of his own.

[Martin Eden]

28. Those who believe him certainly are

It's a mass psychosis.

[left-of-center2012]

11. Trump is addicted to Fox News, and ...

The War on Christmas is a Fox News lie.

Hell, Trump probably thinks he invented the phrase "Merry Christmas".

[NastyRiffraff]

19. He invented "fake news"

so why not Merry Christmas? and "believe me"? And "bigly"--oh wait, he did invent that one.

[MFM008]

12. Fuck yourself

With a garden weasel maggot.

[TheBlackAdder]

15. I guess all of that bullshit FOX News was doing for 10 years, was just copying Trump's lead.

[BSdetect]

16. He has no grasp of reality and yet grasps at every crumb of self praise.

[Initech]

18. Actually if anything, Fox News is the one who began the "assault" on Christmas.

Before that we didn't give a shit. We still don't give a shit.

[Demtexan]

20. Not so Happy Holiday ass in the white house.

May you not have a happy new year.

[JI7]

22. Bloated Trash. i wish he would get a huge massive heart attack in public

and then everyone will be having a merry christmas every fucking day.

[Demtexan]

23. Yep.

He is working on it.

[SammyWinstonJack]

24. Massive campaign to send McD's gift cards to the bloated a$$hole. Merry New Year

[NastyRiffraff]

32. To the White House staff:

Be sure to keep his Diet Cokes, Big Macs, and 2 scoops coming!

[OliverQ]

25. And as usual, his hypocrisy shows.

His past tweets at this time of year say Happy Holidays.

[C_U_L8R]

26. Well this is awkward

[Cha]

30. Oh fuck.. LOL!

What a dumbshite.

[Tavarious Jackson]

27. There is a war but it's on " Happy Holidays"

Not Merry Christmas.

[burnbaby]

33. I said it as a joke at work

when we were leaving last Friday. I said to my co-workers merry Christmas the president said I could say that... guess you had to be there
