I'm a little surprised they are hosting 'Halloween at the White House', this year

trump* seems to be desperate to cozy up to the extreme evangelicals, and extreme evangelicals aren't the biggest fans of celebrating Halloween.

But, apparently it is on the schedule for tomorrow - 4 to 7pm.

I always looked forward to watching the kids, when the Obama family hosted this event. I think I'll be giving it a miss, this year.

asinine.

He gave out candy from the Oval office, to journalist's children. Who wants to bet the kids were pre-selected/invited based on who the journalist works for?

I had a strong urge to protect them. Gave me shudders to see that.
Seriously...
It's like when you see a movie and want to warn the little kid of danger coming.

Maybe there were boys, but didn't see any. Did he specify only "Liddle Girls". Guess he didn't want any competition.
