BIGGER than HEALTHCARE! BIGGER than TAX CUTS! Trump BOLDLY tackles THE WAR ON CHRISTMAS!

President Donald Trump spent an extra $400,000 of taxpayer dollars to fly from Washington, D.C. to his resort in New Jersey then back to Washington again for “the first ever Freedom Rally” at the Kennedy Center Saturday. During his speech, Trump decided “freedom” meant celebrating Christmas in July.

Trump began his speech by attacking the media and touting his election win, as he is known to do.

He went on to involved the memory of Benjamin Franklin and noted that at the Constitutional Convention, Franklin reminded his fellow delegates to “bow their head in prayer. I remind you, we’re going to start saying Merry Christmas again.”

Trump closed his speech to encouraging chants and assured supporters, “For those that are curious, we will build the wall.”

Last year I had a debate at a nearby park with a woman from Iowa who insisted the Obama's were Muslims and had Muslim ceremonies at the WH during Christmastime. I sure could have used these videos then.
