HONOLULU (AP) - President Barack Obama capped a quiet Christmas Saturday with a surprise visit to a Marine base to thank U.S. troops for the sacrifices they've made, including being away from their families at the holidays.
The president, along with his wife, Michelle Obama, spent more than an hour shaking hands and hugging service members who had arrived for Christmas dinner at the mess hall at Marine Corps Base Hawaii. It's the third year in a row the Obamas have visited the base on Christmas.
. . .
With U.S. troops serving in Afghanistan, Iraq and other outposts around the world, the Obamas also used the president's weekly radio and Internet address to encourage Americans to find ways to support service members during the holiday season.
. . .
Mrs. Obama , who has made working with military families one of her top priorities as first lady, said Americans don't need to be experts in military life in order to give back to those who serve their country. She urged the public to reach out through their schools and churches, or volunteer with organizations that support military families.
"Anybody can send a care package or pre-paid calling card to the front lines, or give what's sometimes the most important gift of all: simply saying thank you," Mrs. Obama said.
Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill, spent Christmas in Washington, where they visited wounded soldiers and their families at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

tRump is in "It's Good to be the King" heaven in Florida and considering he doesn't like being told what to do, I'm betting there were security concerns with the Secret Service over this trip, perhaps due to the shutdown.
Regardless, he's a self-serving, self-centered asshole and his spirit of Christmas is calculating how much money he'll make at his properties during our holiday season.
Everything with tRump and his kids is a transaction and they must see everything as a win.....
Have a good Christmas Day, everyone at DU!........
