Those observing Christmas are celebrating a family of asylum seekers. If there is indeed a "War on Christmas," it's being waged by those trying to make our country less safe for the poor, for the marginalized, and for refugees.

Eric Trump has gotten ten times richer over the same time period.

Funny how that works, huh?
