Melania Trump unveils lavish White House decorations in gold blouse and black skirt: 'America is beautiful'

'Christmas is typically thought of as a time for family but every Christmas we are treated with photos of Melania Trump, walking alone beside her choice of WH Christmas decorations Interesting,' a user commented

First Lady Melania Trump, on Monday, November 30, unveiled her final Christmas decorations at the White House and announced this year's theme as 'America the Beautiful." The first lady, in a video and picture posted on her official Twitter account, revealed the decorations this year done in classic red, gold, and white. She wrote: "During this special time of the year, I am delighted to share “America the Beautiful” and pay tribute to the majesty of our great Nation. Together, we celebrate this land we are all proud to call home."

A train can be seen running through part of the decor in the video shared and a traditional gingerbread house in the shape of the White House. Melania, in the clip, walks through the rooms, wearing a gold blouse and black skirt, and examines the decorations. Green plants and white roses were also seen filling the rooms while the official tree, in the Blue Room, could be seen covered in bright red bows, soft gold, and white lights. An Air Force One ornament was also spotted on one of the trees, other ornaments included an American Flag and an eagle.

Reports state that volunteers visited the White House this weekend to get the White House ready for the holiday season. Melania has written about the volunteers in a Twitter post, saying: "This weekend, volunteers from all across America have come to decorate the for the holiday season. Thank you for your time, enthusiasm & devotion to make sure the spirit of peace & joy fill the historic rooms & halls of the People’s House!"

Shortly after her post, several social media users criticized the first lady and referred to the tapes released by her former friend and employee Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, where Melania complained "who gives a f*** about Christmas stuff" while discussing the traditional task of first ladies decoring the executive mansion. One Twitter user wrote: "We know how much you love Creesmus, so these pics are nothing but 100% BS. Soooo glad you'll be out on your gold digging butt January 20, 2021! Don't let the door hit you in the a**!" While another quoted her from the tapes, writing: "Who gives a f*** about Christmas stuff and decoration?"--Melania Trump, "@FLOTUS #BeBest" A third made a reference to Melania revamping Jackie Kennedy's oasis of color in the White House Rose Garden for the first time in almost 60 years, writing: "That only reminds me of the destruction of the Rose Garden. Absolutely horrid." Another wrote: "Christmas is typically thought of as a time for family but every Christmas we are treated with photos of Melania Trump, walking alone beside her choice of WH Christmas decorations Interesting."

This will be Melania's final year overseeing the holiday decorations at the White House with President-elect Joe Biden's wife, Dr. Jill Biden taking her position on January 20.
