Corey Lewandowski says Trump has made it ok to say 'Merry Christmas' again

Updated

Corey Lewandowski said on Tuesday that Donald Trump has made it OK to say 'Christmas' again.

During the appearance on Sean Hannity's Fox News program, the former Trump campaign manager also commented, "Merry Christmas...It's not a pejorative word anymore."

The comment drew a chuckle from Hannity, who, along with other hosts from the network, have reportedly accused liberals of waging a 'War on Christmas.'

That alleged battle was also referenced by Donald Trump during his campaign.

In August, Trump said he makes a particular effort to say 'Christmas' in acknowledgement of the nation's "persecuted" Christians.

While it's unclear exactly how Trump defines 'persecution,' he did vow that, if elected, he would right wrongs by ensuring the words 'Merry Christmas' be featured in department stores all across the land.
