Even children know that saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" isn't going to cut it anymore, as most Americans want to hear the latter.
First Lady Jill Biden found that out in the most humiliating way last week at a U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots event held at the White House. A few of the children in the audience were quick to correct her political correctness.
According to the Daily Mail, as she entered the room and began talking, she shouted "Happy Holidays!" to the people in the room, only to be corrected by one of the children.
The child shouted back, "Happy Christmas!" sending the room into an uproar with an obviously-embarrassed first lady scrambling for her next sentence.
Video of the embarrassing situation for Jilly Biden quickly made the rounds across social media as she was brutally mocked for being corrected -- properly -- by a child.

The Daily Mail noted:
The First Lady greeted children at the White House on Friday to mark the festive season at the Marine Corps' 'Toys for Tots' event, welcoming military families: 'Hello! How are you? Happy Holidays!'
Social media absolutely destroyed the first lady for trying her PC greeting on the kids -- especially given that it was a Marine Corps event specifically for a Christmas-based cause.
Jill Biden scrambled after the correction and tried to make a funny moment out of the situation before finally saying "Happy holidays and Merry Christmas" as she prepared to leave the room.
Still, the damage was already done, and the mockery was thick.
Social media uses held nothing back as they torched the first lady for having her woke, PC garbage greeting trampled by a small child.
"Merry Christmas is the proper statement. Christmas is a national holiday," one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "I’ll never understand the whole “Happy Holidays” thing. It is starting to creep into Australia too. I presume it is an American saying. However it has now been hijacked by those who are anti-Christmas."
One can be sure that the parents of that child are proud right about now.
