President Donald Trump took Christmas Eve calls from children inquiring as to the whereabouts of Santa Claus, according to NORAD\u2019s \u201cSanta Tracker.\u201d At one point, he fielded a call from a child in Pennsylvania, and it went as one might expect.<\/p>\n
Trump spoke to the children on speakerphone in front of cameras and was connected with a five-year-old boy and his mother in State College.<\/p>\n
\u201cPennsylvania\u2019s great,\u201d Trump told the boy. \u201cWe won Pennsylvania, actually, three times. We won Pennsylvania. We won it in a landslide, so I love Pennsylvania.\u201d<\/p>\n
The president won the state in 2016 and 2024, but lost it in 2020, when he baselessly claimed that voter fraud occurred in the state and elsewhere.<\/p>\n
The president told the child that, according to NORAD\u2019s \u201cSanta Tracker,\u201d which somehow escaped the DOGE cuts<\/a>, Old Saint Nick was in Copenhagen and heading to the U.S.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat would you like from Santa?\u201d Trump asked.<\/p>\n The child responded with what sounded like \u201ca 3-D pen\u201d before listing two unintelligible items, \u201cand a robot.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWell, you\u2019ll get all of it,\u201d the president replied, leaving Mom out to dry. \u201cMom, I think he\u2019s gonna get all of it, don\u2019t you think, from Santa?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI think so,\u201d the woman replied. \u201cHe was really good.\u201d<\/p>\n Trump told the boy, \u201cWhen you wake up in the morning, you\u2019re gonna be the happiest young man.\u201d<\/p>\n In 2018, Trump famously took a Christmas Eve call from a seven-year-old and asked<\/a>, \u201cAre you still a believer in Santa? Because at seven it\u2019s marginal, right?\u201d<\/p>\n Watch above via C-SPAN.<\/p>\n The post Trump Tells Child on Santa Hotline, \u2018We Won Pennsylvania\u2026 Three Times\u2019<\/a> first appeared on Mediaite<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"President Donald Trump took Christmas Eve calls from children inquiring as to the whereabouts of Santa Claus, according…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":69987,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[34,28,30,29,5528],"class_list":["post-69986","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pennsylvania","tag-donald-trump","tag-pennsylvania","tag-pennsylvania-headlines","tag-pennsylvania-news","tag-santa-claus"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69986","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69986"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69986\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69987"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69986"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69986"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69986"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
