It wasn't a fake turkey. It was the display centerpiece bird. Actually, the
correct one to hold for a photo-op. Unless of course, you *prefer* he hold
up a hotel-pan full of pre-sliced turkey and gravy for the cameras - LOL!

Now if he tried to actually CUT the display bird - that would be funny as
hell.

But it wasn't a fake bird.

I think our Prez has enough "exposure" without having to make some up?

Symbolism, fake turkey being held by a.... let's just say the symbolism
is what's wrong here.
