I think that Trump made people feel good to say Merry Christmas again.
And also brave enough to not be PC and accept the snotty “HAPPY HOLIDAYS”.
So I’m leaving the grocery check out and my bagged offers to take groceries to my car. She whispers she needs to walk a bit. We proceed only to be joined by another customer going in same direction. Because the lot was so crowded we had time to talk. She confirmed all the Merry CHRISTMAS and pleasantries. And all together we all three said Trump.
