Admittedly, all the Presidents and First Ladies pictured here with their families on Christmas are Democrats. But if we cats wanted to, we could easily add holiday photos of Bushes, Fords, Eisenhowers and Nixons.
Our point is this: No matter how much we disagreed with them, past Republican Presidents behaved normally at the holidays and served as a good-will rallying point for all Americans, no matter what their faiths or belief systems. It's just something that Presidents do.
Except now. Today, we have a malevolent creature in the White House who is isolated and aggrieved — not even trying to wish the country well. "A picture of a lost and damaged soul," as a conservative writer for The New York Times put it.
Scary stuff, folks. We can only hope, as the world enters another Silent Night, that somebody on the national security team keeps Mr. Pity Party away from the nuclear football. We cats HISS.
