First Lady Melania Trump debuted the White House Christmas decorations on Monday giving the public a peek at this year’s theme.
The Office of the First Lady invited reporters and Breitbart News to an early Monday morning preview of the decorations, a tribute to “The Spirit of America.”
First Lady Melania Trump described this year’s theme in a statement:
This Christmas season I want to honor those who have shaped our country and made it the place we are proud to call home, and I am excited to announce our White House holiday theme, ‘The Spirit of America’ When I travel the country, I am inspired by the hard-working people and families that I meet. No matter which state they call home, many Americans share a strong set of values and deep appreciation for the traditions and history of our great nation. Thank you to all of the staff and volunteers who worked to make sure the People’s House was ready for Christmas. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
