North Carolina Republicans celebrate the Resurrection while Democrats pay homage to the holiday

Holidays present organizations and leaders with an opportunity to present their values.

This Easter season, Republicans and Democrats shared sharply different reflections. Republicans reflected on the Resurrection, while Democrats shared “Happy Easter” posts, with no references to the reason for the season.

Tim’s Take: Last year, the Biden administration proclaimed Trans Day of Visibility on Easter Sunday, which many viewed as highly offensive to the Christian community. By the look of these posts, North Carolina Democrats seem determined to continue Biden’s tone deaf messaging.
