Michael Harriot reports on the incoming Santa Claus. A snippet:

Of course, there are some elves who refuse to accept the new Santa. But the “Stop the Sleigh” movement won’t change the outcome of the elves decision.

“The last guy was utterly incompetent,” an unnamed elf told The Root. “He wanted to build a wall around the North Pole and spent most of his time playing golf at his resort, Mar-a-Igloo. Of course, he claims that the election was stolen and is even trying to subvert the final decision of the Elf-toral College.”

“Rich white crooks of America, your time has come!” Velshi said. “If you’re rich, if you’re white, if you’re a man, if you’ve been convicted of a crime, and of course if you’re loyal to Donald Trump, you get a pardon!”
