Full title - My card is bigger than yours: Trump ridiculed for handing out YUGE Christmas greetings to congressional lawmakers.

*The White House recently handed out massive Christmas Cards to lawmakers

*Members of congress shared images of the massive placard on social media Friday, colored in dark crimson and featuring a stylized eagle seal in shiny gold

*The White House gift, the first since Trump took office in January, is reportedly three to four times bigger than the usual yuletide missive

*The lavish gift appears to follow a pattern the White House is setting for this year's holiday season

Sorry, should be WIDTH=350 (my HTML skills are somewhat impaired by the Knob Creek Single Barrel Old Fashioned I’m enjoying :-)

It will look like this:

Do ANY schools teach cursive now? I have friends with grandchildren and none of ‘em know cursive. I would hope !arron’s school is above that.

I’d hope they’d teach at least enough cursive for a “grown up” signature, because block print is going to look too childish after much longer, it actually does now.

“It could be an effort to match them or it could mean that they’re very similar people as far as anything that would show up in graphology.”

I’m thinking you’re right about similar people.

They’re both perfectionists in their own way, but very different in how they each go about achieving it.

> I loved that. He gave them to the behind the scenes guys, the cameramen and mic people. He acknowledged what a great job they do

He knows who are his ‘friends’ in that crowd. This isn’t the first mention of that either. I’m guessing a few of them have told him they supported him. But, if so, they can’t tell anyone else or they’d be out of a job.

But now, they might have more opportunities if that happens :-)

All you have to do is add width=500 inside the tag to get this.

Love it - his way of saying, "You're so small that maybe this big greeting card will make you realize it so you can change."

Then they prove how small they are by trashing him and the card....

Winning!

MAGA!!!

We should all

Celebrate

Nothing new here. The White House has produced the large size card as a Christmas memento and gift for staff and others. I have several from GHWB and BJC time.

Lets be honest:

“Christmas” has absolutely nothing to do with Yeshua, and especially not his birth. Yes, what they’re doing is childish and hateful, but they know not our Savior!

According to Urban Dictionary, Yuge is the New Yorker’s pronunciation for the word huge. Humid is yumid, any word that starts with hu in particular is replaced with a y. This seems to be confined to the city, in particular Manhattan, across all social classes. So, Donald Trump isn’t the only type of person who speaks that way.

He is not trying to interact with Jewish study, either, as the word in Hebrew means to deliver or save. And Trump’s ancestors were Lutheran on his father’s side in Germany and Presbyterian on his mother’s side in Scotland. His parents married in a Manhattan Presbyterian church in 1936. As a child, he attended the First Presbyterian Church in Jamaica, Queens, and had his Confirmation there.

So it appears to be just an area slang with no apparent covert intent other than to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Good for him.
