Trumps unveil their card with no repeat of the Obamas' Happy Holidays
Daily Mail ^ | 27 November 2017 | Nikki Schwab

On Monday, the Trump family debuted their holiday card, which wishes Americans a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, instead of the generic, more politically correct, 'Happy Holidays.'

That's different from last year's card sent out by President Obama, which included a family photo and wished Americans a 'joyous holiday season.'

The Trump card is signed by President Trump, first lady Melania Trump and even 11-year-old Barron and was displayed in the White House's 'Bookseller's' area, as the Christmas decorations were unveiled today.

“I hope it drives all the ‘tolerant’ bastards absolutely nuts”

But how would you know?

Probably Barron and Mom.

I'm sure he's into anything "computer".

Interesting how Melania’s signature closely emulates that of her husband...

Yet Barron's is totally legible.

“Most boys, for whatever reason, have horrendous handwriting.”

Seems to be true about the guys in my family! Maybe because it just wasn’t as important as other stuff.

“maybe because cursive is on the way out?”

I’ve had the impression it was the opposite. My granddaughter went straight to cursive in kindergarten.

Maybe it depends on the curriculum used.

I love it. Imagine what Hillarys would’ve looked like.

The staff would have had to clean up the scrawl as it drifted down and disappeared off the bottom of the card.

Then there'd be the matter of the drops of liquor on the paper, and they'd just give up and hire a calligrapher.

Most public schools around here do not teach cursive anymore. I remember back in 2009, when my oldest was taking the Catholic High Schools Entrance Exams, that the essay portion was to be written in cursive, in PEN.

When I went to pick him up from the test, many public school kids were in tears because they had not be taught cursive, and some were upset because they had never been required to use a pen instead of a pencil. They were saying, “I didn’t even bring a pen!” and “My essay looks awful — I couldn’t erase anything.”

In our local Catholic schools, cursive is formally started in third grade, but kids are encouraged to try before that if they are ready.

But who knows what they are teaching the little tykes nowadays — even in the kinds of private schools Barron has attended?

Regards,

11 year old Barron has better handwriting than some of my college aged grandchildren!
