Tis the season to be Jolly? Not according to Donald Trump and his White House communications cronies who are shaping his holiday message. To Trump it is the season to be a blithering jackass who spews vile invective and hateful harangues at his perceived enemies, and to spread misery far and wide across America and the world.<\/p>\n

Two weeks ago Trump’s White House website debuted a “Media Bias”<\/em> page<\/a><\/strong>, claiming that it would be keeping track of what Trump regards as “false, misleading, or biased”<\/em> news reports. Although in Trump’s mush-mangled mind “biased”<\/em> means anything that isn’t unreservedly exalting. Consequently, the page consists solely of the familiar media outlets that Trump bashes ad nauseum as “fake news”<\/em> simply because they have the audacity to report the truth about Trump warts and…well, more warts.<\/p>\n

No previous president has been as openly hostile to the notion of a free press as Trump, who frequently refers to the media in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.”<\/em> Trump’s animus toward honest journalism is evident in his knee-jerk and meritless lawsuits, and his infantile insults. And now he is escalating that hatred to encompass the once joyful holiday of Christmas.<\/p>\n

In an extraordinarily repulsive display of seasonal assholery, Trump posted a video<\/a><\/strong> (now mysteriously deleted) of Santa Claus reviewing a Trump-defiled version of his “Naughty List.”<\/em> The list was comprised of journalists and media outlets that Trump – not Santa – despises. It includes MS NOW, CBS News, Axios, The Bulwark, Carol Leonnig, Ken Dilanian, and Jake Tapper. The background music is the revered holiday classic, \u201cSanta Claus Is Coming to Town,”<\/em> featuring the lyric “You better watch out.”<\/em> Which sounds more like a threat in this context.<\/p>\n

ICYMI \u2014 Trump\u2019s White House posted a video of Santa\u2019s \u201cNaughty List\u201d of media outlets\/reporters (showing who is doing their jobs\u2026 a badge of honor) Nothing fascist or authoritarian about this at all!<\/p>\n
