Donald Trump Still Angry About Melania’s Much-Criticized Red Christmas Decorations

Former President Donald Trump is still disgruntled that the media mocked former First Lady Melania Trump’s White House Christmas decorations.

Trump spoke at the First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas when he brought up his wife’s decorations.

”I have to just start by wishing everybody a very, very Merry Christmas,” Trump said, adding that Mrs. Trump was loved by everybody” but that she “didn’t exactly get a fair shake.”

”She would make the most beautiful Christmas decorations,” he continued, “And I remember she made these magnificent red trees and the media said ‘Oh, that’s terrible.’ I said, ‘Honey, next time, try white.”

”She made magnificent, remember, the most beautiful you’ve ever see, white trees? And they said, ‘Oh, that’s terrible.’ I said the next time, let’s do it more traditional. Let’s go with green,” Trump said.

”We went with beautiful green trees, and they said: ‘Why wouldn’t you make them white  like they used to be?’ But I’ll tell you what, she’s loved all over, and she’s got a tremendous heart, and she says hello,” he said.

In 2017, Melania went a different way with decorating the White House, by adding white branches instead of Christmas trees.

In 2018, the media criticized the red tree choice for appearing to be covered in blood.

It seems planning Christmas decorations wasn’t Melanie’s favorite part of being the First Lady. Last year she was heard in a leaked recording complaining about having to organize the decorations. The conversation was recorded by on of her friends, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff.

“I’m working… my ass off at Christmas stuff that you know, who gives a f— about Christmas stuff and decorations,” Melania said on a secret recording. “But I need to do it, right? Correct?”

She added, “Ok, and then I do it, and I say that I’m working on Christmas and planning for the Christmas and they said, ‘Oh, what about the children, that, they were separated?’ Give me a f–king break.”
