The liberal left has notoriously attacked the saying “Merry Christmas†during the holidays and has fought to keep the saying out of public places, ostensibly so as not to offend atheists, Muslims and other non-Christians.
With the holiday season just around the corner, there will undoubtedly be more liberal attacks against Christians, and more retailers saying “Happy Holidays†instead of “Merry Christmas.†The sacredness of Christmas will be further assaulted, but one political candidate, in particular, won’t give in to the left’s anti-Christmas campaign. Donald Trump, Republican presidential candidate, slammed the liberals’ “politically correct†agenda to dismantle the true meaning of the holiday season — the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
The current GOP front-runner is a self-proclaimed Christian and, in an interview with Yellowhammer Radio, discussed his views on the Christian holiday.
“I go out of my way to use the word ‘Christmas,’†he said. “There’s an assault on anything having to do with Christianity.â€
Trump is right. Liberals have attempted to distort the true meaning of Christmas and often take legal action to further their cause. Trump explained that department stores and other retailers won’t say “Merry Christmas†during the holidays anymore because “(t)here’s always lawsuits and unfortunately a lot of those lawsuits are won by the other side.â€
“I will assault that,†Trump said. “I will go so strongly against so many things, when they take away the word, ‘Christmas.’â€

Good for Trump!

HOORAY Trump
I always say MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone during the Holidays. Always have done it always will and people tell me Merry Christmas back, even though Im Jewish I dont mind, I actually enjoy it it brings me into the spirit of the holiday season
Geez. Trump is defending Christians better than the Pope nowadays.
I am all for saying Merry Christmas but I don’t see it as a war on Christmas as in the 50’s and 60’s many stores put Happy Holidays and nobody thought to complain about it.
MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!! A special gift from ‘The Donald’ to us!!!
Wow. Bless you.
Amen!
Yes he is!
But in the 50’s and 60’s you weren’t forbidden to say Merry Christmas. It was a choice.
Some stores forbid their employees from saying it now.
Really??? In the 50’s and 60’s people didn’t say Merry Christmas???
Just remember, Trump is a fake Christian.
ROTF LMRO
It’s so funny to watch steam come out of the ears of his detractors.
Good idea!
What he’s sayin goes a bit deeper than just store advertisements. Btw, in the 50s and part of the 60s this was actually a united country compared to what it is today.
Pass that popcorn!
I made another donation early in the week.
Thanks.
I’m sorry, but the garbage characters in these posts in the last few days is really getting to be a pain. BFAC, I know that this is not just you, but several posts. Does anyone know what is going on? Is this part of the recent “FR attack site” business?
And they always seem to be on key words...lol
