Given the backdrop of the Perennial Democrat/Libtard War On Christmas, plus all the things being canceled due to Covid (Thanksgiving, anyone?), it’s entirely plausible for Trump to predict Biden will cancel Christmas. It would be utterly remiss of him to fail to predict that. (I just learned that the annual Paso Robles Pioneer Day Parade was canceled this year, I think for the first time since WWII.) And Biden canceling xmas this year despite not coming into office until January? Well, let’s remember that Trump starting giving executive orders and otherwise acting like the president (well, to the extent that Trump ever acted like a president) before his inauguration too. (ETA: So did Boris Yeltsin.) So this is just Trump projecting his own behavior onto others, as always. ---

But it’s absurd for him to predict that Biden will cancel Christmas THIS YEAR. ---
