Children force Jill Biden to say 'Happy Christmas'
First Lady Jill Biden's recent public outing did not go so well for her.
According to Fox News, the first lady tried to say "Happy Holidays," but the children in the audience were simply not having it.
They actually forced her to say "Happy Christmas," which we all know must have really hurt Biden. Here is the video:

Here's what happened:
According to Fox, the incident took place on Friday, when the first lady held a Christmas event at the White House.
Per the outlet:
On Friday, the first lady hosted the annual Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots campaign at the White House. She greeted everyone with "Happy Holidays," to which multiple children shouted back with emphasis, "Happy Christmas!"
Biden, in return, was forced to respond "Happy Christmas, Yes!"
"Happy holidays," of course, is the politically correct Christmas season salutation, and Biden, as member of the left, has been indoctrinated regarding politically correct speech.
Here is what the leftist outlet NBC News once wrote:
Today, however, the practice of using “Merry Christmas” is a fraught one. The choice between sticking with the traditional salutation or the more politically correct “Happy Holidays” is riven by differences in ideology, age, geography and gender. The person most likely to insist on “Merry Christmas” would be a Republican man over 60 who lives in the Midwest; the archetypal “Happy Holidays” proponent is a young (18 to 29) female Democrat living in the Northeast.
Enough already
President-Elect Donald Trump, during his first tenure in the White House, made it a point to bring "Merry Christmas" back into American culture. He wanted to make it okay, once again, to say Merry Christmas to anyone.
Trump believes that he has achieved success on this front, and there is probably some truth to this.
Last year, in an interview, he said:
That was part of my campaign. The country had started with this ‘woke’ culture, and it was embarrassing for stores to say ‘Merry Christmas.' You’re going to say Merry Christmas again.’ And now people are saying it.
Trump and Republicans, in general, have been trying to rid the government of all forms of wokeness, and, to some extent, it has been working.
We should expect Trump to continue this mission during his administration, which is about to get going in a about a month.
