Trump vs. Obama in the alleged war on Christmas: Ugliness in a season of joy

The Washington Post addresses the ridiculous argument that there is a "war on Christmas". Trump at one point even said, “If I become president, we’re all going to be saying ‘Merry Christmas’ again. That I can tell you.” What does that even mean? Are we going to start fining or imprisoning people who refuse to say Merry Christmas? I didn't think the argument that there is a war on Christmas could get even more ridiculous. Good grief!

This is yet another example of Donald simply playing "entertainer", and saying whatever tickles that masses he's playing to. We are seeing now with the way he is backing down on a lot of his rhetoric from the campaign trail, even admitting that he said some of it simply because it sounded good, that we don't really know what he actually intends. What did he mean, and what didn't he really mean out on the campaign trail? Only time will tell.
