The first lady is not getting a pardon for her poor taste in decorating the people’s house for the holidays, but she did seem to nail the theme.
This year’s White House Christmas decor summed up the last four years brilliantly — a real circus. A tacky, tasteless, clownish circus, according to X users.
A “Season of Peace and Light” is the official theme and the visitor welcome letter included plenty of sappy words.
“The holidays have always held a special place in our hearts, and we’ve loved opening the doors of the People’s House wider and wider each year, continuing the spirit of goodwill and gratitude. At the holidays, Americans come together every year in fellowship and faith, reminding us that we are stronger as a community than we are apart. The strength of our country, and the soul of our Nation, come from you. May the promise of this ‘Season of Peace and Light’ guide your path forward,”
But the unofficial circus theme can’t be unseen.

Nearly 10,000 feet of ribbon, over 28,000 ornaments, some 2,200 doves, and 165,075 lights were used to decorate the White House for this year’s holiday season.https://t.co/Zh5ecvxItP

Axios featured the designs in a series of photos and reported, “This year over 300 volunteers supported the effort. Decorations include:
- 83 Christmas trees
- 9,810 feet of ribbon
- Over 28,125 ornaments
- 165,075 holiday lights
- The gingerbread house is made of 25 sheets of gingerbread dough, 10 sheets of sugar cookie dough, 65 pounds of pastillage (hard icing), 45 pounds of chocolate, 50 pounds of royal icing and 10 pounds of gum paste.”
Comments from Americans were brutal.
Jill Biden’s Christmas decorations look like what would happen if a group of circus clowns projectile vomitted all over the White House, which I guess is the perfect metaphor to sum up the last four years. pic.twitter.com/L69VkNMLTo

I think she dipped into Hunter’s Stash…

No taste, just like her taste in clothing.

Seems like appropriate decorations considering the last four years have been a clown show.
