Trump’s Thanksgiving Roast: His “Christmas Vacation” parody targets Biden, Harris, and the Dems

Just hours after extending Thanksgiving wishes — even to “Radical Left Lunatics” — President-elect Donald Trump turned up the heat with a parody video inspired by the holiday classic Christmas Vacation.

The 35-second clip, shared on Truth Social Thursday night, featured a computer-generated cast of prominent Democrats in a biting turkey dinner spoof.

Biden as Griswold, Schiff as Cousin Eddie

In the video, President Joe Biden’s head is hilariously superimposed on Chevy Chase’s iconic character, Clark Griswold, from the 1989 film. “If this turkey tastes half as good as it looks, I think we’re all in for a very big treat,” Biden’s voice says as the Griswold-esque scene unfolds.

California Rep. Adam Schiff takes on the role of Cousin Eddie, asking for the turkey neck, while Vice President Kamala Harris, as Eddie’s wife Catherine, delivers her infamous cackle. First Lady Jill Biden, standing in for Ellen Griswold, looks visibly uncomfortable, while outgoing Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sip wine nearby.

A Trump Twist: Popping Out of the Turkey

As Biden’s Clark Griswold attempts to carve the turkey, it collapses in dramatic fashion, revealing Trump himself bursting out of the dried-out bird. True to form, Trump performs his signature dance moves to the Village People’s YMCA, a rally favorite, as Democrats watch in dismay.

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar is seen laughing, while Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez looks horrified. The scene fades out as the parody reaches its comedic crescendo.

Thanksgiving Jabs and MAGA Optimism

The video follows Trump’s earlier Thanksgiving message on X (formerly Twitter), where he wished everyone a happy holiday, including his political opponents. “To all, including the Radical Left Lunatics… don’t worry, our Country will soon be respected, productive, fair, and strong,” he wrote.

The parody’s sharp humor reflects Trump’s ongoing strategy of blending entertainment with political jabs, keeping his base engaged as he prepares to take office. Whether loved or loathed, Trump’s latest stunt proves he’s still a master at dominating the holiday headlines.
