In a Christmas Eve call with a young child Monday night, Trump asked a 7-year-old named Coleman whether he or she still believes in Santa Claus, saying that was a "marginal" age for knowing the truth.
"Are you still a believer in Santa? Because at seven, it's marginal, right?" Trump asked the child.
Lol

I'm trying to get my head around this. So, Mr and Mrs President ring a few kids on Christmas Eve to - what?
Is this a PR thingy?
Excuse my ignorance. I'm a dumb Kiwi.

In the United States part of the president's job is to phone every child past a certain age and tell them Santa isn't real. It is supposed to eliminate magical thinking and encourage devotion to the state.
