WASHINGTON (AP) First lady Melania Trump on Monday welcomed this years official White House Christmas tree, a white fir from a farm in Michigan that arrived by horse-drawn carriage.
The tree, which came from Korsons Tree Farms, arrived on the North Portico. It was delivered by a pair of Clydesdales named Logan and Ben in a carriage driven by one of three men, all wearing top hats, who were on board.
Its a beautiful tree, the first lady said as she circled the carriage and posed for pictures.
Wearing a cream-colored overcoat and dark red gloves, she shook hands with one of the drivers and a woman who was standing with the horses.

Yeah, Merry Christmas. Michelle looks more human.

I can't wait to see how she decorates the wrecked East Wing.

(20 posts)Is she going to decorate the White House? We all know what she is capable of and how she feels about "focking Creesmas". She makes me ill.

Wheres the love of her life
.the criminal who just tore off the East Wing? Oh, right. Busy at work finding ways to decrease food aid to hungry children. They deserve each other.

She is as phony as a three dollar bill. The only time she smiles is when she sees Putin or Trudeau.

God how awful is she going to make the Christmas decorations? All her blood red and black decor will be so stark and chilling like in a horror movie.

If Harris had won, I wonder if Doug Emhoff would have been responsible for the Christmas decor. Im sure the MAGAs would have roasted him for doing something that should be done by the womenfolk 🙄
