Donald Trump Sends Warm Christmas Wishes To Foes: 'ROT IN HELL' – HuffPost
Donald Trump read off his political naughty list in a hellish holiday rant on Christmas.
The former president hopped on his Truth Social platform Monday to unwrap a number of festive screeds against foes, including a post that criticized Jack Smith, the Justice Department special counsel who has brought two criminal cases against Trump.
“Merry Christmas to all, including Crooked Joe Biden’s ONLY HOPE, Deranged Jack Smith, the out of control Lunatic who just hired outside attorneys, fresh from the SWAMP (unprecedented!), to help him with his poorly executed WITCH HUNT,” Trump wrote, referring to President Joe Biden.
The frosty rant came just days after the Supreme Court rejected Smith’s request to fast-track consideration of Trump’s presidential immunity claim in his 2020 election case. Trump has pleaded not guilty in the cases brought by Smith.
The former president later directed his holiday wishes to “both good and bad” world leaders before comparing them with his adversaries in America.
“None … are as evil and ‘sick’ as the THUGS we have inside our Country who, with their Open Borders, INFLATION, Afghanistan Surrender, Green New Scam, High Taxes, No Energy Independence, Woke Military, Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Iran, All Electric Car Lunacy, and so much more, are looking to destroy our once great USA,” Trump wrote. “MAY THEY ROT IN HELL. AGAIN, MERRY CHRISTMAS!”

Elsewhere, he claimed that Biden would interfere in next year’s presidential election as Trump seeks to retake the White House. He further warned of looming “MADNESS & DOOM,” boasted about his polling performance and declared that people “will be happy, not sad” with his alternative to the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare.
Trump had also celebrated Christmas last year by launching into another rant full o’ caps. And he aired various grievances on other holidays throughout 2023, including Easter, Mother’s Day and Memorial Day.
Trump remains the GOP’s presidential front-runner, leading Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis by over 50 percentage points in an average of national polls, according to polling aggregator FiveThirtyEight.
