It seems pretty clear that President-elect Donald Trump is poised to have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas he’s had in about four years, while Democrats are going to remain the most miserable bunch of … well, whatever … this side of the nuthouse.
Trump showed off his sense of humor with a parody video on Thanksgiving Day. The video featured prominent Democratic politicians in the famous turkey carving scene from the 1989 classic “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.”
He posted the video to his Truth Social account.
The clip shows President Biden as Clark Griswold telling those at the table, “If this turkey tastes half as good as it looks, I think we’re all in for a very big treat.”
We all recognize that scene. But in Trump’s version, sitting around the table are soon-to-be-former Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), First Lady Jill Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), among several others.
And whereas Chevy Chase’s character promptly cuts into a turkey that turns to dust, Biden’s turkey reveals an incredible surprise.
President-elect Trump posted this video to Truth Social, and it’s driving Democrats absolutely insane.

Man, Trump just keeps bringing back the joy to this country, doesn’t he? Thank God he won. Who knows what kind of weird messages the other candidate would be posting right now instead?
There is so much going on in this hilarious video. Chief among them is Trump bursting out of the turkey, performing his signature dance. The dance that’s sweeping the nation.
As is always the case with The Donald, though, it’s the subtle stuff. Schiff playing the role of Cousin Eddie and demanding Biden “save the neck for me” is just … comedy gold.
Trump has repeatedly branded the congressman “little pencil neck Adam Schiff.”
Kamala cackling beside him adds to the moment.
Subtle. Cutting. Just a beautiful thing.
Then there’s Nancy Pelosi throwing back some wine while Biden is carving up the bird. Squad member Ilhan Omar with a big smile while Trump dances, and her colleague AOC in the background wide-mouthed, probably screeching about something.
So, so good.
The parody actually reminded me of a video by that went viral shortly after Trump shocked the world in 2016 by defeating Hillary Clinton.
The video was a short parody of the John Lewis Christmas advertisement, in which a young girl is given a trampoline for Christmas only to be beaten to it by the family dog.
This version was far more satisfying:
Aside from the “Christmas Vacation” parody video, Trump also delivered a tender Thanksgiving message to America in the early hours of Thanksgiving Day.
“Happy Thanksgiving to all, including to the Radical Left Lunatics who have worked so hard to destroy our Country, but who have miserably failed, and will always fail,” he said, “because their ideas and policies are so hopelessly bad that the great people of our Nation just gave a landslide victory to those who want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
Ah, it warms the heart, doesn’t it?
Hopefully, somebody played the “Christmas Vacation” video for Joy Reid to enjoy at her Thanksgiving dinner.
