Trump hope

President Donald Trump and the first lady recorded and released a Christmas address today. The main point  of their message has been concluded in its ending: “We hope your heart is filled with the love and joy of your faith, family, and friends this Christmas. We send our best wishes for a merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year”.

While the president seemed overwhelmed with ‘hope for peace among nations and joy to the world’, Melania was busy answering calls from children across the country as part of NORAD Tracks Santa program last night. The first lady warned the children not to forget “to put milk and cookies out for Santa, and wished each child and their families a very merry Christmas”.

The first family celebrates the holiday at the president's private club in West Palm Beach, Florida. Their vacation will last for two weeks, as announced.
