Trump Uses Christmas to Highlight Economic Claims and Criticize Rivals

Social Media Campaign

Donald Trump celebrated Christmas 2025 by taking to social media platforms Truth Social and X to share holiday greetings and his characteristic blend of political commentary and personal grievances. The former president posted dozens of messages between midnight and 1 AM on Christmas morning.

Economic Claims and Political Criticism

Trump's Christmas posts followed his typical pattern of mixing holiday goodwill with sharp political criticism. He extended 'Merry Christmas' wishes to all, including 'Radical Left Scum' while asserting that their efforts to 'destroy our country' had completely failed. The posts also highlighted what Trump described as strong economic performance, though the specific 4.3% growth figure mentioned was not independently verified in the report.

International Response

The Christmas greeting season saw an unusual diplomatic exchange when Russian President Vladimir Putin extended official Christmas greetings to Trump through Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov. This formal recognition came despite strained relations between the two nations on various geopolitical issues.

Political Messaging

Trump maintained his characteristic aggressive tone on various political issues through his social media posts. He addressed multiple topics ranging from immigration matters involving Somali immigrants to claims about the 2020 US presidential election results in Georgia. The posts demonstrated Trump's continued active engagement in political discourse even during traditional holiday periods.
