The White House has made waves with a sharp one-word response to a social media user who criticized President Donald Trump’s Easter Sunday message. On the Truth Social platform, Trump’s post stirred controversy as he launched a blistering attack on the ‘Radical Left Lunatics’ and President Joe Biden, calling the latter a “highly destructive moron.”
While Easter is traditionally a time for reflection on Jesus Christ’s resurrection, Trump’s message notably did not mention Christ, the resurrection, or any themes of peace and forgiveness. Instead, Trump focused on his political grievances, including a sharp critique of Biden’s immigration policies and judges who oppose his deportation plans.
Trump’s Controversial Post
In his message, Trump wished a “Happy Easter” but also took aim at political opponents, stating: “Happy Easter to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting and scheming so hard to bring Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, the Mentally Insane, and well-known MS-13 Gang Members and Wife Beaters, back into our Country.”

He added a harsh critique of the Biden administration’s border policies, accusing Biden of “purposefully allowing millions of criminals to enter our Country.” Trump also lambasted judges and law enforcement officials for enabling what he described as a “sinister attack on our Nation.”
Criticism Across Social Media
Many took to social media to criticize Trump’s post, pointing out that his Easter message lacked any reference to the religious significance of the holiday. Trump critic Adam Kinzinger sarcastically tweeted: “Dear Christians who think Trump is the savior, here is his inspiring Easter message or forgiveness and resurrection.”
Another critic on X (formerly Twitter) remarked: “Trump’s Easter message fails to mention Jesus, the cross, the resurrection, forgiveness, peace, joy, or any other Easter message. Instead, he attacked his political opponents, migrants, judges, law enforcement, and rambled about himself and his grievances.”
The White House’s One-Word Response
In the midst of the backlash, the White House responded with a quick one-word retort to the criticism. Commenting on an Instagram post about the issue, a user named Nick McHugh asked, “Girl aren’t you tired?” to which the White House replied simply, “No.”
This response quickly garnered attention, sparking further debate over the political and social media tactics surrounding Trump’s message and the ongoing polarized climate.
Conclusion
Trump’s Easter message and the subsequent White House response exemplify the ongoing political division in the U.S. As the debate over his holiday message continues to unfold, one thing is clear: the social media exchanges surrounding the former president’s posts show no signs of slowing down.
