At what age do children wonder whether Santa really exists?
President Donald Trump would like to know. In a Christmas Eve call, Trump asked a 7-year-old named Coleman whether the child still believes in Santa Claus. "Are you still a believer in Santa? Because at 7, it's marginal, right?" Trump asked Coleman.

And at 7 years old, kids know the truth about Santa, but may quite not know the definition of "marginal.
Seven isn’t exactly an adolescent. This is kind of a wierd conversation.
Ask Barron in private if you must, but don't expect his answer to reflect all American kids. At any rate, let kids make up their own minds on this.
Democrats are TAUGHT to always believe in Santa. It’s their DNA
He really used the word marginal with a seven year old?
A lot of parents are no longer doing the Santa Clause bit.
Impeach him!
He has lots of kids and grandkids, so who knows what his experience was with them and the ages at which they knew Santa Claus was not real. He probably thought he was giving this kid credit for being old enough not to believe in flying reindeer and a flying sleigh.
Never too young or old to learn a new word.
Democrats are TAUGHT to always believe in FedGov Santa. It’s their DNA.
There, that's more accurate.
Watch “The Christmas Chronicles” to see who Santa Claus is and how he gets his job done.
4D chess, baby. If the kid understands the word ‘marginal,’ he’s sharp enough to know the score on Santa. If he doesn’t, the question goes over his head, so no harm, no foul.
I think that some of the problems in our society are due to the fact that we DON’T expect a seven year old to know what marginal means.
A child is like a high speed computer with 99% free disk space, just waiting for input. The more data it is given, the more it can store and use to produce output.
"You've got that right!"
Unless there is some type of intellectual or emotional shortcoming, a seven year old kid knows the truth about Santa.
The more you learn while younger, the more you understand as you get older.
Just another example of how the media shows their zeal to slam him regardless of the facts and/or context......
I want to hear Quagmire sing “Baby, it’s cold outside”
Guess there were no border stories, Cruz wasn’t sporting is barely a beard in a Santa suit handing out teddy bears at the border.
I figured it out at about age 5 or 6, when I realized that the stuff I wanted was stuff I saw advertised on TV, and it was sold in stores. One toy truck in particular that I really, really wanted. I must have been good that year, because Santa brought it for me.
