Florida atheists pair public nativity scene with a combustible Trump-themed Distrestivus pole

Every year, the Religious Liberty Project puts Festivus poles on the lawns of public buildings that sport Christian religious holiday symbols; this year, RLP's Chaz Stevens put a "Distrestivus" pole adjacent to a nativity scene on Deerfield Beach, Florida public land.


"Wrapped with an upside-down American flag (acknowledging the majority of Americans who didn't vote for the Pumpkin In Chief), this year's pole is shorter, a shout-out to Donald's tiny hands," Stevens said via email. "We've donned Distresstivus with the infamous Make America Great Again red cap, and fastened it all together with a big ol' safety pin."

He is hoping to eventually burn the display and has applied for a fire permit from the city, but said he hasn't heard back.
