U.S. President Donald Trump has wished America and the world a Happy Passover.

The springtime holiday of Passover, when Jews retell the biblical story of the Exodus from Egypt at a ritual meal laden with food and symbolism, has long been a vehicle for political commentary.

A story about liberation from slavery lends itself to that.

This Passover, which begins Monday night, the nation's preoccupation with politics and the flurry of activism since President Trump's election are inspiring a new crop of amateur writers to try their hand at updating the age-old Passover story.
