Donald Trump is embracing the festive season by sticking to his distinctive yearly practice: posting a passionate Thanksgiving message on Truth Social.
The president-elect has a distinctive approach to sharing festive joy, and this year, he specifically called out the “radical left extremists” in his message to the American people.
"Wishing everyone a joyful Thanksgiving, even to those on the extreme left who have relentlessly tried to undermine our nation but have ultimately failed. Their ideas and policies are fundamentally flawed, and that's why the incredible citizens of our country recently delivered a resounding victory to those who aim to restore America's greatness!" Trump shared on Truth Social early Thursday morning.
"Rest assured, our nation will soon gain the respect it deserves, become more productive, just, and resilient, and you'll take even greater pride in being an American!"
This year's holiday message is more upbeat compared to last year's, when he targeted major individuals involved in his $454 million civil fraud case. He described New York Attorney General Letitia James as “Racist & Incompetent,” referred to the judge as “the Radical Left Trump Hating Judge,” called Justice Arthur Engoron “Psycho,” and labeled court clerk Alison Greenfield as “Politically Biased & Corrupt” for her alleged campaign finance violations.
During the previous Christmas, Trump sent a sharp message directed at President Joe Biden and Special Counsel Jack Smith, saying, “MAY THEY ROT IN HELL. ONCE MORE, MERRY CHRISTMAS!”
The Trumps will celebrate Thanksgiving at their home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida.
On the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, Mark Zuckerberg was seen meeting with a Republican at his home.
In addition to his election victory, Trump will also be celebrating the announcement made by Smith earlier this week about dropping both the case regarding the 2020 election interference and the case involving classified documents against him this Thanksgiving.
The federal prosecutor's decision was revealed through two different motions that were submitted on Monday.
In his request to dismiss the federal election interference case, Smith stated that there is a history of not prosecuting or pursuing legal action against a sitting president.
He emphasized that the choice was influenced by the advice of the Justice Department, not by the strength of the evidence against the president-elect.
At the same time, Trump's lawyers are requesting that Attorney General James dismiss the hefty civil fraud fine imposed on him.
On Tuesday, Trump’s lawyer, Dr. John Sauer, stated that dismissing the case was essential for the well-being of our nation.
