Joe Biden just gave his Christmas address, and it was absolutely pitiful!
Christmas is a Christian holiday. Sure, it’s celebrated by non-Christians all over the world as a secular holiday, but the day marks the day that we celebrate the birth of the Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. He is the reason for the season. No, Christmas is not a pagan holiday. No, it doesn’t get its roots from anywhere else.
But because Christmas is about Jesus, you would think that Joe Biden would at least have the decency to acknowledge Him in his Christmas address. But nope. The name of Jesus never comes up.
This is as close as Biden got:
There is a certain stillness at the center of the Christmas story. A silent night when all the world goes quiet and all the glamour, all the noise, everything that divides us, everything that pits us against one another, everything — everything that seems so important but really isn’t, this all fades away in stillness of the winter’s evening.
And we look to the sky, to a lone star, shining brighter than all the rest, guiding us to the birth of a child — a child Christians believe to be the son of God; miraculously now, here among us on Earth, bringing hope, love and peace and joy to the world.
Yes, it’s a story that’s 2,000 years old, but it’s still very much alive today.
Just take a look at the video of his speech

So, here’s the thing. We don’t look at the sky to find some lone star in the sky guiding us to the birth of a child that took place millennia ago. And then he mentions a cheesy part in which he says that the story of Jesus’ birth is alive 2,000 years later in the eyes of a child on Christmas morning.
Now, must compare that to how President Trump opened his Christmas address from 2020…
The First Lady and I send our warmest wishes to all Americans as we celebrate Christmas. While our gatherings might look different than in years past, this Christmas, like every Christmas, is an opportunity for us to celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ, and show our heartfelt gratitude for the abundant blessings God has bestowed upon our lives and country.
In this season of peace, we cherish the warmth, generosity, and faith that breathe life into our holiday gatherings. The love we share with our family and friends fills our hearts with joy, just as the story of Christ’s birth inspires people all over the world. This year, we come together as proud Americans—grateful for our sacred right to worship freely and to openly profess our trust in the enduring light and promise of the coming of God.
That’s quite a difference, don’t you think?
Oh, but don’t worry. Biden made up for it by stirring up more division and politicizing Christmas in which he says, “I sincerely hope this holiway [sic] se- — this holiday season will drain the poison that has infected our politics and set us against one another.”
