Donald and Melania Trump turned Santa for a little girl in Missouri who is currently recovering from brain trauma. The multi-state tornado brought devastation to Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Tennessee earlier this month affecting hundreds of families. The Rackleys from Missouri were one of them, and the Trumps helped bring a smile to their faces on Christmas day. A video of 7-year-old Avalinn Rackley's endearing reaction to the gifts is going viral on the Internet resulting in the Trumps' gaining brownie points in return.

Donald Trump appears to be having a great December. Last week, Joe Biden praises the former President's administration and the scientific community for making America one of the first countries to get the vaccine. He mentioned Trump in the speech that he made to address the Omicron variant's spread in the country and acknowledged that the former Prez had received his booster shot as well. "It may be one of the few things he and I agree on," Biden continued. "People with booster shots are highly protected. Join them. Join us." The same day he appeared on the Daily Wire show named 'Candace' hosted by conservative commentator Owens where he told her that Covid-19 vaccines and called it "one of the greatest achievements of mankind". Many would argue it'd be better if he would have stopped at that but Trump continued to speak and while doing so used the words "I came up with a vaccine, with three vaccines." Owens trolled him for the snub, read the story here.

Avalinn broke multiple vertebrae and slipped into a come while Meghan ended up being severely injured. Avalinn has since woken up and has begun taking short strolls in her hospital room after undergoing a successful round of surgery.

Her grandmother Pam Moore recorded the young girl's reaction when she received the gift from the former Prez and first lady. "These boxes are from President Trump, can you believe that?" said Moore in a country accent as Avalinn went "Oh my God!" and fell back on the couch, grinning in disbelief and joy. The Trumps also sent a letter to the brave little girl that Pamela shared on her page as well. "Donald and Melania Trump sent a package! They got hats signed by Donald Trump, Presidential blankets, American Girl Dolls, books signed by President Trump and Melania, pens, bracelets and so much more!" she wrote.

The letter read, "Dear Avalinn. We are so encouraged by the strength and determination you have shown during this very difficult time. You will remain in our hearts for complete care and comfort as you continue to recover. With your steadfast spirit, and the unwavering strength and support of your wonderful family and many friends, your future potential is limitless. May God bless you and your family."
