It's Christmas eve and children around the world are anxiously waiting for the arrival of Santa Claus and his reindeer.
President Trump and First Lady Melania, who are spending their Christmas at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, are also excited about his visit and made phones calls to children Sunday afternoon to track his progress through the North American Aerospace Defense Command [NORAD].
“What would you like more than anything?” President Trump asked a child named Casper from Virginia. “Building blocks, that’s what I’ve always liked too. I always loved building blocks. Well I predict Santa will bring you building blocks, so many you won’t be able to use them all.”
“How are you? Merry Christmas. Are you tracking Santa? Do you know where he is right now?” First Lady Melania asked another. “As soon as you go to sleep, Santa will be there.”
“So you want your grandma to get out of the hospital? That’s what your wish is? That’s great. That’s better than asking for some toy or something, that’s much better, right?” the president asked another boy named Brian. “Your grandma’s gonna be good,okay, she’s gonna be good.”
In total, they spoke to 22 children from states across the country.

Much, much better than nobama’s muhammerhead tracker - MAGA!
Make Christmas Great Again!
She seems to connect so genuinely and wonderfully with kids .. my God, the contrast with Barky’s husband couldn’t possibly be more stark !
Adorable?
I thought that we were “deplorable”.
Yes, much better.
You said it.
That is SO AWESOME..I see President Trump and I see Melania and I think to myself “How can anyone hate these people” even if these people disagree with Trump politically..how can anyone deny that Trump and Melania are good people who just want to help others
That was Hillary Rotten Clinton’s opinion and she doesn’t count.
I swear....she’s an angel. Heaven sent...at the least.
As democrats heads exploded like the sound a kid makes when he pops bubble wrap.
In that photo up top, the looks on those two little girls' faces say it all .. like their big sister is reading the card they made for her and they couldn't be happier.
I thought that we were “deplorable”
You wrote it correctly. It's customary to put quote marks around words with hidden meanings. You can be adorable while being a "deplorable." (I can't be adorable, I'm a crusty ol' sailor)!
That’s so cute of them - did the Obamas ever do this from their compound in Kenya, errrr, uhhh, Hawaii??
Ha, never. They only thought about themselves and no one else
What a sweet story.
It’s amazing.
Heh, over Iowa as of 12:21 EST...
It’s wonderful to have Americans back in the White House after eight nightmare years.
God Bless you President Trump and First Lady Melania.
For the first time in eight years, I’m proud of my Country again... (Yes, that’s a middle finger at the former residents).
