    WAYCROSS, Ga. — Santa Claus is looking for a new job after a mall in southeast Georgia pulled him for posting a picture of him wearing a Trump 2020 via social media.

    Frank Skinner has played Santa Claus every Christmas for nearly 50 years, including the past 14 years at The Mall at Waycross Shopping Center in Waycross, Georgia. But this was not enough to save his Santa gig. Skinner said the mall was already closing and no children were around him last week when he decided to switch hats and pose wearing the Trump hat for fun.

    This man has been Santa for nearly 5 decades.

    Last week, after the mall had closed, he had a friend take the picture of him wearing a Trump hat, for his personal social media.

    Some busybody (perhaps a leftist) complained to the mall and he was fired.

    Fortunately he has several other job offers-but it goes to show how lame these busybodies are.

    Little known fact: The center of the milky way has a leftist in the very middle of it.

    Sometimes I wonder about the ratio of crybully attacks... like how often is it a power/control thing vs. being really fragile?

    He probably would have been fired for wearing any hat out of costume - Santas usually have strict dress codes while on set. Just say'n. He knew better.

    His employers were well within their rights to fire him.

    I don't see a problem with it.

    Has he started a GoFundMe Page? Yet?

    Have Hannity, Carlson, or Ingraham scheduled him for an in-depth interview to discuss this outrage?

    Usually, Faux turns these RW "Mock Outrage" stories into a cause celebre.

    Once again, I fully support the decision to terminate him.

    Doesn't matter. If he signed the traditional "Santa Claus" contract that most malls use, he could not alter the costume while on set. He was still on set. It's kind of like the Disney contracts that are so strict about costumes. If he was doing it for 50 years, he knew better.

    And your crap about the War on Christmas? Nope, it's actually an attempt to keep Christmas traditional. A traditional Santa costume does not include MAGA hats. Why do your posts always fail?

    Great Post, DL.

    Sometimes I wonder if the RW even cares about the Daily Dose of Mock Outrage.

    Or, if it is just some story that they see and they rush here to post it as a way to shade the LW.

    Obviously, you are correct about "contracts", etc.:salute:

    Tell us more about the "traditional Santa Claus contract".

    Again this was after hours, and it wasn't an alteration of the costume.

    I don't blame them for firing him.

    Santa gives free gifts to people that haven't earned them for no reason.

    How could he not be a liberal?

    Gays can get their cakes elsewhere-they don't get to supersede the 1st amendment rights of others.

    Back on topic-this is just another example of busybodies pulling out all of the stops because of anger over Trump and Christmas.

    Yes, the mall was well with in their rights to terminate his employment. That is true. No disputing that fact. And I support their right to do so.

    However, that doesn't mean it wasn't a dick move worthy of condemnation.

    Just because someone CAN do something, doesn't mean that they should. The guy clearly made sure to take the pic after the mall closed and no kids were around. There was no harm caused by him doing this. Except to peoples snowflake mentality.

    I have done work in Waycross, Ga many times. It is not a place that would complain about this. The complantaint was probably a basement dweller from Massachusetts.

    The Trumper can go find a job elsewhere too.
    And here you are complaining all over.

    It's amazing how when a conservative points out something that negatively affects conservatism liberals are quick to dismiss it...yet when something negatively affects a liberal there is outrage, condemnation, and a call for the person to be fired from their current job AND all future jobs.

    He should probably be executed just to be careful.
    Should we give it a shot? Maybe we will. I'm only kidding. Or am I? Kidding.
