“Happy Thanksgiving to All, Including the Radical Left Lunatics”: Trump’s Bold Holiday Message
In a signature blend of holiday cheer and political jabs, President-elect Donald Trump shared a pointed Thanksgiving message early Thursday morning, November 28. Posted at nearly 1:00 a.m. on Truth Social, the post exemplified Trump’s characteristic style of mixing seasonal greetings with political commentary.
From his Mar-a-Lago estate, where he is spending the holiday while managing the presidential transition, Trump addressed both supporters and critics. “Happy Thanksgiving to all, including to the Radical Left Lunatics who have worked so hard to destroy our Country, but who have miserably failed,” Trump wrote, continuing his practice of using holiday messages to highlight his political agenda.
Trump declared his recent election victory as evidence of national support for his Make America Great Again movement. “Don’t worry, our Country will soon be respected, productive, fair, and strong, and you will be, more than ever before, proud to be an American!” he added.
The message comes as Trump prepares to assume office in January, with his second term promising a continuation of his bold and polarizing approach to governance. His Thanksgiving remarks align with his long-standing tradition of turning holiday messages into platforms for addressing political issues, showcasing his unique style of communication.
While the post drew cheers from his supporters, it also sparked debate online, with detractors critiquing the sharp tone during a season typically reserved for unity and gratitude. Still, Trump’s supporters view the message as a rallying call, reinforcing his focus on national pride and his commitment to reshaping the political landscape.
As Trump’s presidency looms, his Thanksgiving post signals that his unapologetic style and direct engagement with both supporters and adversaries will remain a defining feature of his leadership.
