President Biden and his immediate predecessor issued Easter messages that were as different as the men themselves. Other living presidents weighed in as well.

Biden, who wished the nation a “Happy Easter” on Twitter, invoked the teachings of Christian savior Jesus Christ in his missive.

“As we reflect today on Christ’s Resurrection, we are reminded that with faith, hope, and love — even death can be defeated,” the president tweeted. “From our family to yours, we wish you hope, health, joy, and the peace of God, which passes all understanding. Happy Easter and may God bless and keep you.”

Easter is a Christian festival commemorating the resurrection of Jesus three days after his death by crucifixion. For many Christians, Easter is the end to the Lenten season of fasting and penitence.

Former president Donald Trump used the holiday to launch a passive-aggressive attack on his perceived enemies on Earth, including New York attorney general Letitia James, whose office is investigating Trump.

“May she remain healthy despite the fact that she will continue to drive business out of New York while at the same time keeping crime, death, and destruction in New York!” reads a message from Trump’s Save America political action committee, which also calls James a “r****t.”

“Happy Easter to all including the Radical Left Maniacs who are trying everything to destroy our country,” reads a second message Trump’s PAC. “May they not succeed, but let them, nevertheless, be happy, healthy, wealthy and well!”

The 45th president’s message is similar in tone to his Easter greeting from 2021, where he baselessly alleged the 2020 e******n he lost to Biden by more than 7-million v**es had been “r****d” against him. Trump continues pushing that claim in 2022.

Biden is f**e. And if you think he meant what he said, I have a bridge to sell you.

Trump is real. And what he said is true.

He prayed that New York attorney general Letitia James “remain healthy despite the fact that she will continue to drive business out of New York while at the same time keeping crime, death, and destruction in New York.”

And he wished a Happy Easter to all including the Radical Left Maniacs who are trying everything to destroy our country, adding may they not succeed, but let them, nevertheless, be happy, healthy, wealthy and well!

It's amazing what spin you'll spew to make Biden look like an angel and Trump evil when in fact the opposite is true. You l*****ts do it all the time.

You should read with more comprehension. Apparently, unknown to you, those partial quotes were in my posting.

I believe Parky is repeating what you posted, with added emphasis (bold/underlined) in an effort to point out that even though Trump's message is a strongly worded one, it is a true message. If it's the WAY Trump delivers his messages that you don't like, that's another issue....but t***h is fact. And that is what Trump's blunt, but meaningful, message is at a time when it is dearly needed.

What's amazing is the spin you and others will spew to make Trump look to be anything other than what he is.

Come on Slats!! I mean, really? Do you seriously believe that normal folks such as myself believe that Trump is some sort of prophet, or an oracle, or God like being? Come on man!! You're smarter than that!
I can't stand Trump as a person, but his policies were working for the American people. This ain't a personality contest. It's about what works for ALL of us. Not just the q***rs, and academics.

Now, we have your guy, and party in there, and it appears to me that we're FKD.

How bout letting go of bias, and prejudice, and go with what works?
No, it ain't always fair because a lot of folks are straight up dumbasses. Why should the many pay for the few?

And thinking Biden actually wrote or composed what he sent out is beyond ignorant. From Biden, it is a f**e lie. From Trump it is T***h, whether is is yippy skippy enough for them or not.

I never saw Trump as someone who was going to blow sunshine up the asses of the i***ts.

The message of good will and the ressurection was appropriate the other message is pure politics. Maybe you like that stuff-- I think in terms of decency and respect being a virtue that I expect from a leader.

Arch, you're one of a handful on OPP I consider a close friend. The fact that we disagree on Trump does not detract from my respect for you. However, I submit the following...

How America survived the Trump presidency....

Emily, it's admirable that you stand up for Parky's ambiguity. But, explain his next to last sentence: "It's amazing what spin you'll spew to make Biden look like an angel and Trump evil when in fact the opposite is true."

Please explain any "spin" I put on a cut 'n paste duplicate of the article, to include exact quotes from Mr. Trump.

Parky60 Loc: People's Republic of Illinois

Instead of always bashing Trump, who's been out of office for fifteen months, why don't you tell me what great things your boy Biden is doing for our country.
