Trump loves America and is doing the best for America.

I have no doubt of this in my mind, and nothing he does will ever shake my faith in him.

Also, the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, and Easter Bunny are real. My parents told me so.

"Uh, sir, we've renamed the China Trade Deal the Oriental Trade Deal."




"Sounds good. Now can I have my Spaghetti-O's?!"

Is that why we call him Jolly old Saint Nicholas?

He inherited wealth, but wikipedia paints a picture of him being famous for secret gift giving - which is weird. Like he's the Chuck Norris of gift giving, but the Inspector Clouseau of secrecy.

Oh.

So he wasn?t necessarily a thief himself.

Unless that's the part he's actually good at keeping secret.

I thought Saint Nicholas left fruit and nuts in your shoes if you left them out by your bedroom door..?

I went to Catholic schools as a kid. I remember in grade school, we would put our shoes out in the hallway and "St. Nick" would put candy in them. He never came to our house though.

One year my stepdad of the time had us do it. I feel like it was earlier in December and on "Saint Nicholas Day" which wasn't the same as "Christmas."
