Volunteers work in the 2018 NORAD Tracks Santa Operation Center in Colorado Springs
by raising doubts about his existence.The call to American defense agency NORAD, which "tracks" Santa's movements around the world, was one
of several answered by Trump and his wife Melania as part of a Christmas Eve tradition.It began innocuously enough: "Hello, is this Coleman
How are you How old are you"But Trump then ventured into dangerous waters, asking: "Are you still a believer in Santa Claus 'Cuz at seven
it's marginal, right"The president's question was not well-received on social media.US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump
answer calls from people at the White House
(AFP)"Belief in Santa should be preserved as long as possible
It's the, or close to the, beginning of the end of innocence
For Mr Trump to be responsible for that is sadbut not surprising," a Twitter user named Walt Corey wrote.Derryl Murphy tweeted that "Trump
doesn't know how to say anything appropriate, to anyone," while Sarah Walker wrote on Twitter: "This further proves that he is the
grinch."It was not immediately clear whether Coleman decided to forego leaving cookies and milk out for Santa this year.(Except for the
