Franklin Graham is reaching the acceptance stage of grief, more than a month after his loser president lost really hard in the election. He's not angry about the result, and he's not disappointed either. He's grateful. And here is why, as he explained on Facebook:
"I'm thankful that the president stood against the secularists who wanted to take Christ out of Christmas and that he brought back the greeting "Merry Christmas!""
I cannot imagine what it's like to go to bed at night so scared and stupid that you really think Christmas was under attack and that you were not allowed to say "Merry Christmas" before Donald Trump was president. That somehow you have been liberated from these chains.
Let me explain for Franklin and anyone who doesn't understand how business and America work: Christmas, and wishing someone a merry one, has always been fine, but in the free market, companies have always been free to make decisions about which seasons' greetings to offer. The same companies that insist on it today were insisting on it before Trump was president. Likewise, the companies that were trying to move in a more ecumenical direction, encouraging more inclusive greetings like "May the elves on your shelves 69 all night long!" are doing the exact same thing today. Most people using the "Happy Holidays" greeting are just trying to cover the vast number of holidays that occur during the holiday shopping season. Trump did nothing, besides performative bullshit meant to fool our Lord's dumbest faithful into believing he was doing something for them. You know the type I am refering to, people like Franklin Graham.
