Sen Van Hollen shows off this year's White House Christmas card:



Chris Van Hollen ✔ @ChrisVanHollen

In yet another bizarre day in the Trump Winter Wonderland, the White House delivered their annual holiday package: An extremely oversized card, another small card, and…. his 6-page screed to @SpeakerPelosi where he goes off the deep end. You can’t make this stuff up.

strikes me as bizarre and inappropriate. For all their hoop-la about keeping Christmas a religious observance, why would they just slap a "Merry Christmas" slogan on a card so generic it would have been far more appropriate to send on any of several other holidays, including Flag Day, the 4th of July, Memorial Day, or Veterans Day?

There's really something wrong with those two people when they think this is appropriate.

John and Jackie Kennedy are rolling over in their graves.

Not only a colossal waste of paper, it's a colossal statement of stupidity as well. Now this will go down in history as the most ridiculous holiday greeting to ever come from the White House. At least you'll be number one at something, shithead!

That is THE card. The Scum Group and Santa Putin.

That's a Cretin Christmas and the Grinch is envious. Scrooge feels bested, as well.

Planned Parenthood or maybe an immigrant charity. They'd fetch top dollar as a political collectible.
