Charles Dickens: And who should it be at the door but Scrooge\u2019s\nonly living relative. His nephew Fred!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albert Einstein: Only living relative being a nephew? What happened\nto his Brother and\/or sister?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Dickens: Scrooge only had a brother and they were at\nodds since childhood.  His brother was a well-respected\npolitical adviser for the Clinton campaign, until he decided to blow the whistle\non some shady practices.  Sadly, before\nhe went to court, he died under very mysterious circumstances. Fred\u2019s mother\ndied giving birth to him.  Having no\nsiblings, this left Fred\u2019s only living blood relative, Mr. Scrooge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albert Einstein: Wow! \nThat\u2019s terrible I hope this Fred is nothing like him!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Dickens: Oh no, just look and see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: Hello! \nUncle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Dickens: Fred said as he came into the shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: A Merry Christmas Uncle Scrooge! God save you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump: Merry Christmas? Bah Humbug!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: Christmas a humbug uncle? Oh you don\u2019t mean that\nSurely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump: A Merry Christmas you say? What right have you\nto be merry, you\u2019re poor enough?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: What right have you to be dismal, surely you\u2019re\nrich enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump: Nephew stop calling me Shirley.  If I could work my will I\u2019d send every idiot who\ngoes out saying \u201cMerry Christmas\u201d to an early death, and be buried, with a\nstake of holly through their heart!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: Surely you don\u2019t mean that Uncle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump: Nephew, what did I say about you calling me Shirley?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: Sorry Uncle, but Christmas is a wonderful time to celebrate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump: You keep Christmas in your own way and let me\nkeep it in mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mo-Larr: Christmas is a loving, honest and charitable time,\nand thought its never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket I believe\nChristmas has done me good and will do me good, and I say God Bless it!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Riker: I agree with that Mr. Scrooge.  Perhaps you should reconsider your views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald Trump: Bob Cratchit, perhaps you would like to consider\nyour current employment status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Riker: Aye sir\u2026 back to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Albert Einstein: I was thinking he was going to say \u201cyou\u2019re\nfired\u201d there for a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Dickens: Even though Bob Cratchit challenged his\nboss, Scrooge knew better than to fire his best bookkeeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albert Einstein: When are we going to get to the Generosity,\nLove and Morals?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Dickens: Right now! This time of year, it was\ncustomary especially on Christmas Eve for well-meaning gentlemen to call upon\nbusiness to collect donations for the poor and homeless. And then, there was\nanother knock at the door!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
