An automatic pop-up ad that showed up in Donald Trump's Truth Social feed set off a firestorm of criticism from his fans, many of who raged that a Black actor in the ad was wearing a Santa hat.
The ad, which is randomly generated in feeds on the financially troubled social media platform, features actors Leigh-Allyn Baker with a halo above her and Mark Christopher Lawrence in a red crewneck sweater wearing the Santa hat which appears to have led the MAGA fans into believing he is a Black Santa — something that once memorably infuriated former Fox News host Megyn Kelly.
Truth Social follower Gaillita was the first out of the gate to proclaim Kelly-like: "Sorry, but Santa is not black."
Mitchrappfan, whose bio states, "Conservative Republican waging war against the Deep State, the DemonRats, Satanists, Globalists, and the NWO. UltraMAGA!" then chimed in with, "How about MLK, jr. being played by a White woman?"
Although the movie,"Bringing Back Christmas," is not a Disney film, Dig22 contributed, "Disney can go f--k themselves with that social engineering bulls--t."
MyGreatAmerica, who claims to be "Just an old man who won't compromise his freedom. Conservative and total Trump follower. No time for Libtards. Happily married 47yrs," also seemed to believe the film is from Disney and explained, "First and foremost I'm white but I don't consider myself racist, however Santa is not and never has been a black man. Some things need to be left alone and unchanged. This is bull s--t. Exactly why I have nothing to do with anything that involves Disney. If I have offended people of color then so be it. This opinion is not meant to do that. Some things need to be left in their original form."
Robert Bedgood curtly dismissed the holiday film as "Woke trash."
MagaGOP had a bone to pick with diversity, explaining, "It's not just this movie. Enough already. America has diabetes of diversity . Every cell is jam packed with diversity. Can't take much more. Overloading. Virtue Signaling is up to 10.5. Need medication. A strict diet of no Virtue Signaling is needed. Help! Drowning in Diversity. It has destroyed everything from University CEOs to Vice-Presidencies. And that is the TRUTH. Diversity is the shallowest form of decision making ever used in history."
Rottilover was bugged by the lack of historical accuracy, complaining, "Plus the fact, Jesus Our Savior was not born on 25 December. Most likely in September but the pagan church had to be inclusive. Jesus deserves His own day without the commercial distractions."
Conservatarian1 wants nothing to do with the ad, issuing a terse "blocked."
