Christmas message attacks haters and losers

On Christmas Day, Trump tweeted: "Merry Christmas to all, including the haters and losers (of which there are many)!" The tweet became infamous for using a holiday greeting to insult critics, establishing a pattern Trump would repeat in subsequent years. This was one of the earliest examples of Trump using Christmas messages for divisive attacks rather than traditional goodwill. The tweet would resurface annually as Christmas approaches, becoming a cultural touchstone for Trumps combative communication style.
