What it means

George Washington and his soldiers cross the Delaware River in a small boat on Christmas night. The joke reimagines the American Revolutionary War as an extreme reaction to a tiny 3% tea tax, parodying modern anger about taxes and government fees. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to disproportionate outrage over a minor charge. EN: George Washington and his soldiers cross the Delaware River in a small boat on Christmas night.
