“Happy Trumpsgiving” became a viral trend on X this Thanksgiving as Americans expressed gratitude for President-elect Donald Trump’s decisive election victory.
The holiday saw millions of Americans gathering with family and friends just weeks after a historic election in which Trump won 312 electoral votes, sweeping all seven battleground states and the national popular vote. For many, this victory symbolized hope for the nation’s direction and relief from four years of progressive policies under the Biden administration.
Supporters took to social media to share memes and posts celebrating Trump’s return to “Make America Great Again.” One popular post defined “Trumpsgiving” as “the expression of gratitude that Kamala is NOT the President.” Others shared memes of turkeys styled with Trump’s signature hairstyle or imagined festive dinners featuring prominent conservative figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Joe Rogan, JD Vance, Tucker Carlson, and Elon Musk.
Trump himself joined the Thanksgiving cheer, issuing a statement directed at both supporters and detractors:
“Happy Thanksgiving to all, including to the Radical Left Lunatics who have worked so hard to destroy our Country, but who have miserably failed, and will always fail, because their ideas and policies are so hopelessly bad that the great people of our Nation just gave a landslide victory to those who want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
Trump concluded with an optimistic message:
“Don’t worry, our Country will soon be respected, productive, fair, and strong, and you will be, more than ever before, proud to be an American!”
The Trumpsgiving trend highlighted the enthusiasm of Trump’s supporters as they look forward to the upcoming administration and a renewed focus on America First policies.
