The
three-minute advert beckoning travelers with a Christmas
greeting from "the nicest place on earth" sees Santa
accidentally emailing his 2018 list of naughty children to a
student in New Zealand named Elvis Anderson instead of his elves
at the North Pole.
Sitting in detention, Anderson gets the idea of gathering the
naughty kids from around the world to fix the problem, and calls
on New Zealand's national carrier to help transport the children
to the summit on the country's North Island.
Each child representing a country makes promises to change their
behavior for the better by eating more vegetables, reducing
flatulence and cutting down on hair-pulling.
The American boy, dressed in a two-piece suit and red sloganed
cap, says he is not naughty at all and is the nicest person he
knows, provoking laughter from the other children, reminiscent
of the reaction to Trump's speech to the U.N. General Assembly
in September, when he spoke about the achievements of his
administration.
"I didn't expect that reaction, but that's okay", the boy adds
in the advertisement, the same words Trump used at the United
Nations.
Further pledges to be good from Anderson, including one to be
nicer to neighboring Australia made with his fingers crossed
behind his back to suggest he doesn't intend to keep the
promise, pushes a meter to "Nice" for the children, and confetti
rains down as they celebrate.
