Nation's Christmas tree falls over. More bad news for Joe?

[AviatorTom]

The nation's Christmas tree fell over from high winds in Washington DC.

Is this just more bad news for Joe Biden, an omen of things to come?

I'm pretty sure this is just a coincidence. Yes, yes, I've stated repeatedly that I don't believe in coincidences, and I don't, but their existence is not contingent on my belief.

I'm just glad they're still calling it a "Christmas tree"; a depressing number of places have taken to calling them "holiday trees", as though there were some OTHER religion that decorates trees in exactly the same way you do for Christmas at exactly the same time. If they also set the tree on fire, I'd be willing to give them Yule (and thus credit), but no; it's just an excuse to avoid saying "Christmas".

You don't become more inclusive by excluding more people. Want to bring in elements of other holidays? Cool! Light up a menorah! Do... whatever it is you do for Kwanza! Want to celebrate the way other cultures do? Bring it on! Add in Christmas crackers like they do in England! Heft sheep over your heads while belching Elvis songs like they do in Tonga! [NOTE: this is probably not how Christmas is actually celebrated in Tonga, but since so few people know anything about that country, and I couldn't think of other ways Christmas is celebrated in other places that're notably different, I went with it.] [NOTE TO TONGANS: that doesn't mean you CAN'T start hefting sheep over your heads while belching Elvis songs to celebrate Christmas, by the way.]

Melania gets ripped apart (including by the "ladies" of The View) for wearing a grey coat to Rosalynn Carter's funeral but it's ok for Hillary to wear a very similar coat to Barbara Bush's funeral?

And in any event, grey and black are appropriate colors to wear to a funeral.

you've put too many lights on one side

[Lliam]

It's a metaphor for Joe.
Another reason for the world to laugh at his administration's incompetence.
Maybe a sign of the falling empire.

And who decorated that thing? The lights are all clustered on one side.

The Democrats just announced that the tree didn't fall over due to incompetence. It tipped over because of climate change that is Trump supporters' fault. (Okay. I just made that up.)

They can't blame it on a sandbag. The guys in charge of setting up the tree were Affirmative Action hires.

[OlderAndWiser]

What a symbol for the weakness of this administration! The irony should be obvious to everyone.

[rigmarole]

Looks like the old man has erectile dysfunction... Better sit him down and have a talk with him... What's that, he's already sitting? He's asleep you say? He's in the basement?

[normalice]

The sort of people that believe in omens are probably fretting, but normal people would just fix it 🤷

[RolandCuthbert]

Yeah, the Christmas tree falling over has crippled the administration.

[MicroJ]

It's more than a coincidence. It pretty much sums up the Biden agenda and presidency. Biden falls and so does the national Christmas Tree...

[KrakenAttackin]

This is a symbol for our country as a whole.

[Cubus]

I'm surprised the left allowed to set it at all.

[RedInnocent68]

Please do tell me more about the imaginary war on Christmas…

[Cubus]

@RedInnocent68 Well in my country in Warsaw they used to set up the Christmas Tree on the biggest roundabout in the city, but the left was triggered, so they planted a palm on that roundabout and now you can't set up anything there.

[bededazzle]

i think it’s actually obama’s fault

[Anonymous]

Its indicative of what he's done to America.

[Drewtate]

The liberal War on Christmas continues

[love_conquers_lust]

It fell from on high.

[boobliker]

some one could not keep it UP!

[Anonymous]

America has been falling over for decades.

Omen

[Alex-Snow]

I think it happened when Trump farted

[ThrillSeeker01]

Both I'd bet...
