So is she.

Wow! Truly beautiful. Nice job Melania and staff! Huge round of applause.

bleh ayon kay ...

The decorations look kind of cheesy to me, actually, but still better than what I would've expected from the Trumps.

I Have Misplaced My Pants ayon kay ...

Beautiful!

(The coat on the shoulders thing is weird but I'll forgive it.)

I really love the wreaths.

Hindi-nagpakilala ayon kay ...

If Orange Hitler was really the answer to an alt-right traditionalist extremist Nazi's Santa wishlist, the White House wouldn't be putting up those trees until Christmas Eve!

I'll give 'em a pass if they keep them up until Epiphany.

Earnest Prole ayon kay ...

I'm dreaming of the Whitest Christmas.

Bad Lieutenant ayon kay ...

Not a ton of red or green, the blue and white are almost Hanukkah colors. Very pretty.

HoodlumDoodlum ayon kay ...

She is an attractive woman (in a sort of cold Eurasian way) and certainly very stylish; the White House decorations look nice.

I still stick with my policy, though, of not caring about First Ladies, or First Families, or British Royals...for roughly the same reason(s).

Fabi ayon kay ...

Stunning.

Ken B ayon kay ...

There you go again, normalizing her. Even the NYT doesn't sink so far.

Rob ayon kay ...

So much white and silver, when The Donald grooves on gold. Melania looks great, but to be fair, even Kim Jong Un's wife ain't bad.

Unknown ayon kay ...

Decorations and FLOTUS both exquisite.

exhelodrvr1 ayon kay ...

White privilege!!

readering ayon kay ...

I don't like looking at Christmas decorations before the first Sunday of Advent but these do look attractive.

Fabi ayon kay ...

They were very clever in hiding all the swastika ornaments from the cameras. Well done!

~ Gordon Pasha ayon kay ...

Doubt we will find any ornaments with Mao on them, as compared to days past.

David ayon kay ...

I can do without the over the top decorations but she can come to my house any day she wants to.

mockturtle ayon kay ...

Did I see a creche in there somewhere? They'll hear about that!

Lovely decorations, lovely FLOTUS.

Wince ayon kay ...

How very thoughtful and bipartisan of her @0:04 to map-out the location of all the trees set-up inside the White House.

That way all the visiting left-wing celebrities know all the locations where they can spooge.

Bay Area Guy ayon kay ...

Very nice production! I like it.

Probably worth 60,000 to 70,000 votes for 2020 -- an added benefit.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

Just gorgeous! I love this First Lady, she really is the best thing in this Trump Presidency. How does she keep those cloaks and coats from falling off her shoulders?

richlb ayon kay ...

I thought the White House was a dump!?

Static analysis will get you killed every time.

Big Mike ayon kay ...

Slovenian women are always worth adoring!

Rick.T. ayon kay ...

We've gone from"Happy Holidays" back to "Merry Christmas." What a difference a year makes!

rehajm ayon kay ...

This is stunning. I walked through a lobby today with a similar scheme. It was a beautiful walk. Zhivagoey! It made me happy...

Drago ayon kay ...

One can only imagine the bile and rage building in LLR Chuck.

Jaq ayon kay ...

How could somebody with such common taste ever get elected? It's a mystery!

n.n ayon kay ...

A winter wonderland.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

“We've gone from"Happy Holidays" back to "Merry Christmas." What a difference a year makes!”

Ah, the fictional War on Christmas! I’m quite sure that those who insisted on saying Happy Holidays will still be saying it, lol.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

“Slovenian women are always worth adoring!”

Melania is a Slovenian woman with a German roots.

pacwest ayon kay ...

She's a keeper. Trump in 2020.

tcrosse ayon kay ...

Melania is a Slovenian woman with a German roots.

I thought that was her natural hair color.

Yancey Ward ayon kay ...

Were any of these decorations Russian? I suggest Robert Mueller carefully examine this clip.

Assistant Village Idiot ayon kay ...

We have Martha Stewart as FLOTUS. I'm okay with that.

@Unknown. It depends what you mean by "war." For the holiday parties where I work, there can be no mentions of Christmas, nor any music played that has a religious theme, because we are a state agency. That rule is often broken, but it's there, just ripe for someone to get punished someday. That is not locking people up for having Christian beliefs by a long shot, but it is also silly, as the "holiday season" would not exist in America but for the Christian holiday. It is an attempt to not only disestablish Christianity - I can see the point of being strict about that - it is also an attempt to erase history because it's got Jesus in it. That seems to deserve the label "war" in the arena of symbolism, at least.

MadisonMan ayon kay ...

(The coat on the shoulders thing is weird but I'll forgive it.)

Agreed.

I haven't seen anyone copy it...yet.

Sebastian ayon kay ...

She is indeed adorable.

Still, as we all know, and as prog nihilists eagerly remind us, life is bad, bad.

Inga...Allie Oop ayon kay ...

“That seems to deserve the label "war" in the arena of symbolism, at least.”

While it’s very sad that you can’t mention the actual Holiday, I don’t think it’s so much a “war” as an overzealous attempt at fairness for those who aren’t Christians. I’m liberal and have never been put off when someone says Merry Christmas to me. Strangers most often say Happy Hanukkah to me assuming I’m Jewish, I just say Happy Hanukkah back and don’t take offense. I’ll happily accept Happy Holidays as holiday greeting also, in the spirit of Christmas.

n.n ayon kay ...

Not only Merry Christmas. But, Ho! Ho! Ho!, too... we'll have a gay olde time.

D 2 ayon kay ...

David B: FLOTUS Christmas traditions??!? Bah! Yet another log on my bonfire of loathing humanity.
Andrea D: Your penis better be as flaccid as your whimpering moans there, bucko.

rehajm ayon kay ...

Was Preston Bailey involved? It looks like his work. He did the Melissa Rivers wedding at the Plaza.

rcocean ayon kay ...

Wow, that does look great.

rcocean ayon kay ...

"The decorations look kind of cheesy to me"

LOL - just the kind of goofy, "snobiness" from peeps who have no reason to be "snobby" about anything.

You should go work for the New Yorker.


Please someone, show me "tasteful" Christmas Tree decoration. One that doesn't bore the hell out of everyone.

320Busdriver ayon kay ...

Official Blue Room tree is from Shawano WI this year.

CWJ ayon kay ...

Pitch perfect right down to the tweet. Merry Christmas seamlessly followed by a joyous holiday season for everyone. A dual sentiment behind which all people of genuine goodwill should be able to get.

Peachy ayon kay ...

That is really great. but probably racist.

Peachy ayon kay ...

Everyday is Christmas without Hillary.

Birches ayon kay ...

(The coat on the shoulders thing is weird but I'll forgive it.)

Yep. Seems a little Mrs. Thurston Howell. But wow. The White House looks fantastic.

Fabi ayon kay ...

"Seems a little Mrs. Thurston Howell."

What a coincidence -- Melania likes it when I call her "Lovey".

paminwi ayon kay ...

320Busdriver: the tree is actually from Endeavor, WI.
I wanted to correct that since I know the family.
They had a very interesting story to tell when their tree was selected during the Clinton administration-during the Monica Lewinsky affair!
And shared positive comments about what nice people George & Laura Bush were.

320Busdriver ayon kay ...

Thanks Pam. I saw this article which mentions both locales. Looks like the firm in Shawano actually transported the tree.

"According to WLUK, Jim, Diane and David Chapman, owners of Silent Night Evergreens in Endeavor, Wisconsin were crowned the winners of the National Christmas Tree Contest. Therefore, they’ll be working with Hanauer’s Christmas Tree Farms in Shawano to provide the tree."

Darrell ayon kay ...

The coat on the shoulders thing is weird but I'll forgive it.

What, are you twelve? It's been a European thing for ages. I've seen Italian men doing it in the 1920s in pictures--and I suspect it goes back a lot farther. Makes it easier to conceal a gun in your hand--stereotypes aside.

Biff ayon kay ...

The amount of bile and spittle in the twitter replies is impressive. So much hatred on the left!

The Cracker Emcee Refulgent ayon kay ...

"Everyday is Christmas without Hillary."

Oh, yeah! Hannukah and Kwanza too.

Lucien ayon kay ...

So per Instapundit, Politico has apparently asked press members invited to the White House Christmas party: "Do you either like or dislike that the event has been changed from a “holiday party” to a “Christmas party”? Does this affect your decision to attend?"

So while Inga shrugs it off, clearly Politico cared enough to ask. Curious what the answers might be.

The Cracker Emcee Refulgent ayon kay ...

Melania must, at times, feel disbelief at where her life has taken her. All over Slovenia mothers are telling their daughters that they, too, can grow up to be First Lady of the United States.

MathMom ayon kay ...

paminwi said: They had a very interesting story to tell when their tree was selected during the Clinton administration-during the Monica Lewinsky affair!

Well? Do you know the story? You obviously know how to type...how about tell this story?

Pleeeeeze?

pacwest ayon kay ...

"While it’s very sad that you can’t mention the actual Holiday, I don’t think it’s so much a “war” as an overzealous attempt at fairness for those who aren’t Christians."

No. An attempt at fairness would not dictate an attempt to remove the name of the holiday from public use. That tactic constitutes a direct attack. 'War' if you will.

Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Men.

chickelit ayon kay ...

That's a piece of Wisconsin at the very end.

I Have Misplaced My Pants ayon kay ...

Completely relevant to a staged indoor video of a woman orchestrating Christmas decorations in the United States in 2017. *shrug*

cf ayon kay ...

Well, thank you, Althouse, I say it is not only Time for adoration, it is well past time.

We have lost a whole year of getting to enjoy this gorgeous immigrant bride of our favorite president, what an exhilarating example of the possibilities in America. We could have been basking in the promise of her beauty at every checkstand all through 2017 if normalcy had not been hijacked by our elite totalitarian publishers.

Like everything else she has been part of, this is exquisite. Good for Melania and her team.

Donatello Nobody ayon kay ...

I read the Twitter comments. God Almighty, but the crass hatefulness of the left is depressing! Don't these people have any room in their hearts for a little joy, a little beauty? It seems like TDS has oozed into and infected every aspect of their lives. As a wise man once said: Sad!

Jason ayon kay ...

I think, “how much more white could this Christmas be?” And the answer is: None. None more white.

Kyzer SoSay ayon kay ...

The left has no joy in their hearts and no use for beauty except as something to tear down.

AllenS ayon kay ...

We've come a long way since Obama and their Styrofoam Greek columns.

Trumpit ayon kay ...

"All over Slovenia mothers are telling their daughters that they, too, can grow up to be First Lady of the United States."

That a silly and servile comment with no basis in reality. It is demeaning to Slovenian mothers and daughters. I hope that some Slovenia daughters strive to be president of Slovenia, and the rest strive to be whatever they want to be.

exiledonmainstreet, green-eyed devil ayon kay ...

How does she keep those cloaks and coats from falling off her shoulders?

I think it's one of those things they learn at modeling school, along with how to walk gracefully in heels.

Jason ayon kay ...

It's really nice to know that I can comfortably set the over/under on the number of Mao Tse-Tung ornaments at zero.
