family: – Considering “never to return”

This year, Donald Trump (74) and the presidential family will celebrate Christmas in the White House for the fourth, and last time, at least this time. The president himself happens to be the merry Christmas type, and lavish Christmas decorations reign at Trump Tower in New York each year.

However, it is first lady Melania Trump (50) who has been in charge of the decoration for the family’s four years at the presidential residence on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, DC. having allegedly stated that she doesn’t care at all about the long tradition.

Killed for Christmas decoration – again

American expert and Civita adviser Eirik Løkke believes that the Trump family’s Christmas holidays have been much more festive on previous occasions.

Next month, they will be replaced in favor of Democrats Joe Biden (78) and his wife Jill (69).

– Donald Trump and several family members may be at risk of prosecution when Trump leaves the White House. That is precisely why there has been talk of pardons by Donald Trump. So I think the Trump family will be busy spending the last days in the White House getting rich and avoiding prosecution, not what we associate with a merry Christmas, he says.

To Florida

Fully defined, the presidential family’s Christmas plans don’t seem right yet. There has been no official information on where the presidential family will spend Christmas.

Last year they celebrated in Palm Beach, Florida, but in 2018 they stayed in Washington DC due to an “ongoing political situation.” Then the presidential couple used Christmas Eve to receive calls from American children to find out where Santa Claus is.

It is not known if we will get a replay of this type this year.

The family will most likely vacation at the Mar-a-Lago property in Palm Beach, Florida, just like last year, according to CNN. Here they also celebrated in 2017.

The channel writes that it has been speculated whether the president will travel to Florida and remain there until the presidential term, that is, until January 20 of next year.

In that case, he will leave the White House at Christmas and “never” return. According to CNN, there have been internal discussions on the matter, although the plans have not yet materialized, according to official sources.

At least they have marked Christmas in the White House. On December 18, Melania Trump issued the couple’s annual Christmas card, which was taken at the presidential residence. The president and first lady posed in their respective tuxedos in the picture, and they looked equally happy.

However, there was no joy in the comment section. There, the first lady was accused of having edited her husband in the picture. Therefore, it was claimed that he simply had not lined up, but that some people familiar with the president’s apparatus had forged the Christmas card.

The Independent writes that they have tried to get her to speak, but she has not responded.

Løkke says there is reason to believe that Trump will spend a lot of time in Florida in the future.

– There is also reason to believe that you really do not want to participate in the inauguration of Joe Biden. I think he’s preparing an alternative event on opening day, or in relation to opening day, he tells Dagbladet.

Shock statements

This year’s Christmas celebration traditionally began with the first lady receiving this year’s Christmas tree for the White House. It happened on November 23, when this year’s winner of the national Christmas tree competition, Dan Taylor, arrived driving with the tree in a horse-drawn carriage.

This year, the tree is from the state of West Virginia and with its more than five meters it will reach the ceiling in the blue room, where it gets its deserved place year after year.

The theme of this year’s Christmas decorations at the White House is “America is beautiful.” For the past four years, critics haven’t said the exact same thing about Melania Trump’s choice of Christmas decorations. This year, the décor has done relatively well, probably because it has been overshadowed by his sensational statements about Christmas in a secret recording from 2018.

– Melania Trump “just wants to go home”

After this year’s Christmas tree arrived at the presidential residence, the first lady wrote very warmly about the iconic Christmas tradition on Twitter.

The publication set her on fire due to the 2018 statements where she complains and complains about having to decorate the White House for Christmas every year.

– I try a lot with these Christmas preparations, and you know … who gives a shit about Christmas and decorations? But I have to, right? Okay, I do, and I say I work with Christmas and I plan Christmas, it says in the recording that was leaked this fall.

The recording was secretly recorded in the summer of 2018 by Melania’s former adviser, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff.

However, it should be mentioned that the first lady has not been alone in the decoration.

According to The Guardian, about 125 volunteers from across the country have made their way over Thanksgiving weekend to prepare the White House for Christmas. Over 62 trees, 106 crowns, 366 meters of spruce slings, 3,200 light slings and 17,000 loops have been used on the job site.

Several things now indicate that the first lady is eager to spend some time in the White House behind her. CNN recently reported that Melania Trump will have started the planning process for the measure shortly after the election.

– She just wants to go home, said another source who knows what Melania Trump is doing, according to the news channel.

This is how he captured the interest of “everyone”

Eirik Løkke says that much of the relocation of the White House takes place on inauguration day, January 20. The outgoing president must then collect his personal belongings and transport them out of the White House.

– It’s common to have a lot of planning and logistics before January 20, but usually January 20 will be an amazing day for both the outgoing and new president, he says.

In the United States, the morning of January 20 is often referred to as a “crazy five hours,” as many things need to be organized in a purely practical way in a short time.

Out in january

Next Christmas, however, Melania Trump won’t have to decorate the presidential residence, something she’s probably happy about.

Then it will be incoming President Joe Biden’s wife, Jill Biden, who sits in the first lady’s chair, and thus receives the honorable assignment.

In November, the transition process formally began at the White House, where Donald Trump is leaving and the Joe Biden administration is entering. Although Trump does not want to concede electoral defeat, Biden is scheduled to be sworn in as the 46th president of the United States on January 20, 2021.

Just over a month to go.

Løkke says the Biden family, who have known the White House well since their time as Barack Obama’s vice president, have already begun planning how they will decorate the presidential residence.

Furthermore, Biden is preparing politically and his staff is concerned with transferring as much knowledge and information as possible from sitting members of the Trump administration, even if Donald Trump himself does not express a strong willingness to cooperate.

The expert also believes that Trump, in a well-known style, will continue to tweet both loosely and firmly about the few weeks he has left as president of the United States.
