No one can deny that the "Donald" is the King of Christmas in 2015!
For starters, Donald Trump bucked the PC police and their efforts for the past 6 years to remove any and all mention of the word "Christmas" and it's replacement "Holiday Season". It was without a doubt 100% the result of Donald J. Trump that Christmas 2015 was once again recognized as "Christmas".
No one can deny that back in 2008 Obama and his Administration went to war on Christmas. It was like night and day! I recall it very well! People being afraid to say "Merry Christmas" or even "Happy Thanksgiving"... Instead, it was "Have a happy holiday". You can not deny the fact that this happened! It got so bad into Obama's tenure that even the reference to a "Christmas Tree" was changed to "Seasonal Tree" or "Holiday Tree".
Anyone who wants to deny that Donald J. Trump isn't responsible for bringing back the sprit of "Christmas" single handedly is in denial! It was Trump's willingness to put it all on the line in defense of his beliefs, which happen to be the same as a majority of Americans who made this nation great that we were once again saying "Merry Christmas" in public and not giving a hoot who was around!
It was a very moving moment that took a little time for me to process, but now that I have had time to take it all in, I realize who is to thank for this - it was Donald J. Trump "Making America Great Again". I even had Indian's, Muslims and people at the bank, at the stores and everywhere I went wishing me a "Merry Christmas".
I'd like to thank Donald J. Trump for bringing back Christmas in 2015, and I can't wait to see him in office "Making America Great" once more!
Thank you Donald J. Trump! You have been officially named the KING of Christmas in 2015! Second only to Jesus Christ himself! Bless you Mr. Trump!

I don't have a problem with Muslims, Blacks, Jews, Indians, or any other race or religion of people. If someone stabs me in the back, or is untrue, I really don't care what color or religion they are. You could be a white Christian, but do me wrong and it's on.
The reason I admire Trump is not because of the things the left would like to paint him as... It's because he has confidence and displays a strong image of patriotism, that patriotism extends to everyone of all races and religions provided they are here in this country legally. That's one thing the Trump campaign has to work on! Making that effort to ensure the left is not alienating him from good Americans who are here and want to be here for the same reasons as everyone else.
This will be Trumps biggest challenge.

Yup, except instead of a dopey cartoon, it's the appointment of people to run departments who have a long history of believing said departments should not exist. Take a look at his EPA pick for example. It's becoming clear that Trump is not only indifferent to the environment, but overtly hostile toward it and anyone who wants to protect it. That is only one example. His pick for education secretary doesn't beleive in public schools and thinks everyone should go to a private school. Sure she believes the government should help families pay for some of the cost through our tax dollars... But should taxpayer dollars be directed to private schools that are religious as many are? Wouldn't that undermine the separation of church and state?
Maybe they'll change their minds about the EPA when there's no clean air to breathe, fresh water to drink, or uncontaminated food too eat....Oh that's right, it's like that already because of the Nuke fall-out from Japan...I guess it's too late already, so why not just make more money whilst we can ?....
Similar issues to education had occurred here in Oz, where folks were complaining about Catholic schools ( private ) receiving relatively equal funds as public schools...So a huge number of public schools were closed, & the number of $$$ given to private schools reduced...Oh yeah, & there's hardly any teachers as their wages are crappy...
I went to a Catholic school, & the religion subject was hardly rammed down our throats, especially at a secondary-school level. There were just too many holes in the Biblical story to shoot through, that it is generally accepted as a submission to a blind-faith. I don't think it will become an issue in the US-of-A, as there are so many variations of the same religion, that it's a pick & choose affair between them all, rather than a segregation IMO.
In the past, generally, public schools produced more trade-spersons & lower-wage-earners, that kept factories & the likes alive & well, whilst private schools produced more self- business-orientated people. With industry now basing itself off-shore to keep profits at a maximum, I guess there'll be no need for public schools, as there'll be no jobs for regular people to go to...I mean there's only so many Gas Stations & 7-11's out there. ( No disrespect to folks that work there ).
Ciao,
Rastus

I guess it probably won't impress anyone that I spent an obscene amount of cabbage on Trump Christmas gifts this year. lol Kind of feel like a hypocrite since I ripped on Obama for selling pens and T-shirts during his early administration years. Maybe PowerStroker could dig that thread up so he can rub it in.
Gearing up for Christmas this year has been something else. Many changes to tradition, which I found odd considering that I really had no choice in the matter. It's been fast moving none the less, time is just peeling by and the temps are dropping into the negatives next week. Lot's of snow!

The house looks nice & warm !!! I hope the GM's have their antifreeze within spec lol...
No doubt we'll see the 560 again next year, or at the very least the 420 hauling another Christmas tree.
Cheers,
Rastus

Last I checked, there were 2 facts you should consider:
1. Trump agreed to a deal with both houses of Congress, and then walked away from it at the last minute under pressure from ideologues.
2. The Republican party currently runs the entire show in Washington, you guys have the presidency AND both houses of Congress, not to mention the Supreme Court.
Maybe the Republicans should be the ones getting their shit together.

Have a great Christmas everyone, stay safe, & let's look forward to an awesome ( & mask free ) 2022 ;) !
