During the holiday season, former President Donald Trump issued a series of controversial statements on his social media platform, Truth Social. In a marked departure from traditional festive messages, Trump expressed hostile sentiments towards his political opponents, including a wish for them to 'rot in hell.' His messages contrasted sharply with President Joe Biden's and Vice President Kamala Harris's Christmas messages, which notably did not mention Jesus Christ, unlike Trump's praise. Trump also targeted Rep. Debbie Dingell, referring to her as 'a loser' and making remarks related to her late husband. Amidst this, Trump predicted a 'Big and Glorious' victory in 2024, while continuing to rage against Joe Biden and his administration. The tone and content of Trump's messages have sparked a wide range of reactions, from criticism by figures such as 'Morning Joe' hosts and Rep. Matt Schaefer, who highlighted its inconsistency with the gospel message of Christmas, to support from individuals like Steve Bannon who echoed Trump's sentiment, saying 'Ditto Mr President—for ALL Those Trying to Destroy Our Beloved Country — ‘May They Rot in Hell’'. Trump's attack on 'Crooked Joe Biden' and 'Deranged Jack Smith' was part of a lengthy rant calling out those who are 'looking to destroy our once great USA'.

Trump: “May they rot in hell.” Hell for Trump: A nation of free and equal citizens, unafraid of bullies and unmoved by demagogues, where lawbreakers are held accountable, liars are shunned, frauds are exposed, and liberty and justice for all are pursued.
