Move over Melania. Trump hates being perceived as second fiddle on anything. Truth be told Christmas drive him batshit insane. It’s all about someone ELSE! Worse, it’s not just for a day or two but weeks of someone else getting all the attention. Trump can’t understand why people are so obsessed with worshiping the birth of Jesus (He likes Saviors that didn’t get themselves crucified) and is jealous HIS birth doesn’t get that kind of attention. To add insult to injury when it comes to Christmas at the White House Melania gets more attention. The whole ‘Vut – I hav to doo fooking CHREES-MUS decorations again?’ is the kind of crapping on things TRUMP gets his jollies from. Sorry Jingle Bells, you became a target of opportunity.
There’s a boatload of Christmas songs everyone knows. Some are serious and some are lighthearted. There are both religious and purely secular tunes of each type. In the latter category, some are so easy to learn and sing it’s one of the first Christmas songs young children learn and the classic Jingle Bells tops most people’s list. It’s catchy and even before a child can sing kids eyes will dance and they’ll shake a string of jingle bells in their little hands. With Trump in a foul mood wanting to fly his MAGA sled and unleash a load of nasty stuff that should instead be flushed down his fake gold toilet ruining Jingle Bells would brighten his mood.
Now, you might be wondering how the hell someone could ruin a delightful little song like Jingle Bells but Trump can ruin ANYTHING. As HuffPost briefly explains, with cruelty being a signature Trump trait and ICE working overtime to make Christmas as cruel as possible for as many people as possible with deportations a version of Jingle Bells, “Trump Style” shouldn’t surprise any of us. For some reason (Elon trying to limit the damage?) I can’t copy the official White House tweet to this but you can see it by clicking on the HuffPost story link. Or here: https://x.com/i/status/2001078039635960070
For Trump the sound of links of leg chains on a group of deportees clicking against each other and hitting the ground is “beautiful” music. Way better than jingle bells! This is one sick, messed up, vile and disgusting excuse for a human being. Trump is the poster boy for petulance and the only way he could ever enjoy Christmas is if it was all about HIM. Look at MEEEEEEEEEEE he wails. So, since HE can’t enjoy it he’ll do his damnedest to ruin if for everyone else. There’s already a movement to make his birthday a national holiday but clearly that’s not good enough for him.
Well, the linked article says there’s blowback but no Republicans appear to be calling him out. If you have MAGA family and/or acquaintances and want to rip on them throw this in their self-righteous faces. If they aren’t willing to criticize Trump making a point of cruelty as Christmas time the I for one won’t have any trouble telling them they are as hateful as Trump, AND that their attitude rejects everything the Jesus who’s birth they claim to be celebrating taught and stood for. If they don’t like it, f**k em.
Friends, I know everyone begs you for money. I promise, among all those asking for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest working. We’re a group of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. The rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the chance to keep telling the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula






















I noticed he’s using Frank Sinatra’s recording of Jingle Bells. Expect some blow back from Nancy, hopefully.
Yessss it must be a very stressful time for gelding T, given he’s not getting to swing his small ‘bag-o-nuts’ about at Xmas. It must drive the ‘over-cooked fruitcake’ guano crazy, whist his ‘affect n actions’ are consumed by ‘What about me … it isn’t fair …’ He’s behaving like a pathetic mess – wracked, wrapped and consumed by his selfish infantile tantrums, plots and schemes. He’s bow-tied himself to the tinsel-less decking of his own Xmas poor petard, and he hates it but can’t work out why it is so. He’s stuffed his own stocking, well and truly.
