Washington, D.C. [US]: On Easter Sunday, US President Donald Trump stirred fresh controversy by combining holiday wishes with a series of pointed political attacks posted on his social media platform, Truth Social.
In his Easter message, Trump targeted Joe Biden, judges, law enforcement, and left-wing political figures, accusing them of undermining national security and enabling criminal behavior.
“Happy Easter to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting and scheming so hard to bring Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, the Mentally Insane, and well-known MS-13 Gang Members and Wife Beaters, back into our Country,” Trump wrote.
“Happy Easter also to the WEAK and INEFFECTIVE Judges and Law Enforcement Officials who are allowing this sinister attack on our Nation to continue, an attack so violent that it will never be forgotten!”
Trump went on to sharply criticize Biden, referring to him as “Sleepy Joe” and blaming him for what he described as a failed and dangerous immigration policy.
“Sleepy Joe Biden purposefully allowed Millions of CRIMINALS to enter our Country, totally unvetted and unchecked, through an Open Borders Policy that will go down in history as the single most calamitous act ever perpetrated upon America,” Trump claimed.
“He was, by far, our WORST and most Incompetent President, a man who had absolutely no idea what he was doing — But to him, and to the person that ran and manipulated the Auto Pen (perhaps our REAL President!), and to all of the people who CHEATED in the 2020 Presidential Election in order to get this highly destructive Moron Elected, I wish you, with great love, sincerity, and affection, a very Happy Easter!!!”
In contrast to his earlier posts, Trump followed up with a more traditional Easter greeting:
“Melania and I would like to wish everyone a very Happy Easter! Whether you are heading out to Church or, watching Service from home, may this day be full of Peace and Joy for all who celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. HE IS RISEN!!”
Earlier in the day, during an Easter prayer service, the president struck a hopeful tone:
“There is so much to celebrate this Easter; I hope this will be one of the greatest Easters ever because we have something going that I don’t think this country has seen in a hundred years,” Trump said.
“With God’s help, we can overcome any challenge, triumph over every evil, and restore the spirit of faith in the United States for generations to come. We have a very simple slogan—Make America Great Again, and that’s exactly what we are doing.”
