During the Christmas period, former President Donald Trump issued a series of controversial messages. In a stark contrast to traditional holiday sentiments, Trump's messages included a Christmas greeting in all-caps, where he shouted 'MERRY CHRISTMAS' and railed against President Joe Biden, special counsel Jack Smith, and others he perceives as adversaries. He expressed a desire for his political opponents to 'rot in hell' and for 'deranged communist psychos' to face the same fate, while predicting that 'MAGA patriots will be victorious' and foreseeing a 'big and glorious' victory in 2024. Vice President Kamala Harris was criticized for refusing to mention Christmas in her tweet, and both she and President Biden posted Christmas greetings that notably did not mention Jesus Christ. Trump's Christmas message was described as 'unhinged' and 'a new low' by 'Morning Joe' hosts, and was compared to 'Die Hard' as a Christmas movie due to its contentious nature. Additionally, Rep. Matt Schaefer criticized Trump's message as the exact opposite of the gospel message of Christmas.

Trump's message of "May They Rot in Hell...Merry Christmas" is to holiday greetings what Die Hard is to Christmas movies: a matter of considerable interpretation for those of us stuck in the Peace-on-Earth or even just Ho-Ho-Ho mindset. https://t.co/D6a1LXdpgY
