other pie now. i'll be eating that for a couple days. >> adam, how soon is it to put up a christmas tree? where do you come down on this? i've seen a lot of pictures on instagram where some are spending the latter part of thanksgiving putting up their christmas tree. is it too soon? >> people talk about the war on christmas but it's going to be there's a war on thanksgiving. i think people need to slow their roll with the christmas trees and give it at least until the monday after thanksgiving weekend to put up a christmas tree. >> i'm way too much in a food coma to do anything after thanksgiving. i can barely get out of my pajamas friday morning. jena, have you already played mariah carey's "all i want for christmas is you"? >> no. i'm jewish. i'm not a christmas person. >> danielle, what about you?

in a much better place as well today. last year job growth was slowing and economic growth wages and the stock market were all lower. as the white house pointed out in a statement this week last year, there were 21 million unemployment insurance claims before the thanksgiving holiday. today there were 2.4 million. what's more is that biden signed two significant pieces of legislation into law this year, a second covid stimulus bill that included direct payments of up to $1,400 to most americans, and a $1 trillion bipartisan bill that is one of the largest infrastructure packages in modern u.s. history. so i ask again, would you trade this thanksgiving for last thanksgiving? people have every reason to feel anxious, but for me, the answer is simple. things are so much better now compared to last year that i wouldn't trade that for all the turkeys in the world. for more, let's bring in our saturday night panel. adam ren is a national politics feature correspondent for insider. danielle moody is the host of

everyone was vaccinated and boosted. >> jenna, last but not least, your thanksgiving, better than last year's or is there something we're not seeing here? >> this year is definitely better. if you can hear in the background, my mom's cell phone is going off, so she's here with me. it's nice to not have a president who thinks the cure for covid is drinking bleach, so definitely this year. >> yeah, we're making progress incrementally if we're going to use benchmarks like that. danielle, let's talk a little bit about just the overall state of the politics here. should democrats be thankful for what the party has accomplished this year? or have they fallen short on some of the promises made before taking power back in january of last year? >> i mean, i don't want to be the bearer of bad news, so i want to give a mixed bag and say

i'm ayman mohyeldin. let's get started. so there's no doubt about it. thanksgiving a is a great time to look back and take stock of where we are and where we have been. as the "new york times's" michelle goldberg discussed with us, it's tempting to give into a feeling of despair about the headlines surrounding covid, the economy, even the future of our democracy. but if you stop and remember what things were like this time last year, you gain a different perspective of where we are today. president biden spoke about this recently. watch. >> this thanksgiving we're all in a very different circumstance. things are a hell of a lot better. as bad as things are in terms of prices hurting families now, trade this thanksgiving for last thanksgiving. >> so it is a good question, stop and think about it for a moment. would you trade this thanksgiving for last thanksgiving?

been working this idea of liberal war on christmas for years. they've been doing this since i've been alive. it's been that long. now they seem to be saying thanksgiving is being weaponized. i don't know if that means like throwing a turkey at somebody, but let's watch. >> last year, remember, they didn't want us to get together. i guess we're lucky they're letting us to have thanksgiving this year. but really the core of this, they want to divide americans up. they don't want us to have any common ground. they don't want us to have any shared traditions like thanksgiving. >> so now we're talking about a war on thanksgiving, alice? >> a lot of that certainly goes back to the mask mandates and trying to restrict people having family gatherings and gathering with large groups of people and clearly more conservatives would much rather get together with your family and really pull back on the requirements with regard to mask mandates. >> we all want to get together with your families. >> exactly. but i think the focus, talking about the war on christmas or
