    We're going on year 21 or so of the war. So far, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of retreat on the part of Christmas. In fact, I'd say Christmas has gained territory further into the month of November, and even an occasional spotting in October. I'd suggest the opposition forces were either overestimated in their firepower, or perhaps were never much of a force to begin with. The TVs remain inundated with Christmas movies and Christmas commercials. The radio with Christmas songs.

    At some point I wonder if arms will be laid down and this bloody, heartless, and savage battle can be put behind us. Until then I suppose we await the next update on the attack on Christmas. Thoughts and Prayers.

    I remember when it was unheard of for a store to open on Thanksgiving Day. Not anymore…

    The Wai on the War on Christmas just isn’t the same without Bill O’Reilly leading his valiant charge to save Christmas and, in fact, Christianity itself.

    Was I so distracted by the war on Christmas I missed the real battle? I'm a fool.

    Dear Leader made big gains in the war on Christmas.

    “Trump tweeted on Christmas Eve: “People are proud to be saying Merry Christmas again. I am proud to have led the charge against the assault of our cherished and beautiful phrase. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!”


    Donald Trump claims people say ‘Merry Christmas’ thanks to him

    Can’t be a thread without a Trump mention (and obligatory link).

    The whole ‘there are too many posts on Dear Leader’ won’t work. Sorry, but posts will continue on trump.


    “Trump made this claim a centerpiece of his presidential campaigns and in the speeches he gave at rallies,”

    “His embrace of the war on Christmas narrative has made it an article of faith for his supporters.”
