Why This Old Photo Of Melania Trump Has Twitter In A Tizzy

When Jill Biden took over first lady duties from Melania Trump, many were ready to examine the differences between the two women. Most recently, the difference between how the first ladies celebrated the holiday season at the White House was discussed on Twitter. Each year, it is the duty of the first lady to decorate the White House for the holiday season, per Newsweek. Shortly before Thanksgiving 2021, Biden stood by while the first of her holiday decorations, an 18-and-a-half-foot Fraser fir from Peak Farms in North Carolina, arrived at the White House. Many took to Twitter, comparing Biden's traditional take on holiday decorations and Trump's fairly nontraditional holiday decor like red Christmas trees (nicknamed the "blood trees"). "Can't wait to see how @FLOTUS decorates for the holidays. After the morbid, dark, I hate Christmas decor of Melania it's sure to be a major improvement," one user tweeted, according to Newsweek.

While Trump was largely silent and absent during her husband's presidency, Biden has been fairly active and vocal, per SCMP. In October 2020, Trump made one of only a few public speeches, chastising the Democratic party for choosing to focus on impeaching her husband instead of handling the coronavirus pandemic. At least while her husband was in the White House, Trump was encouraging the public to follow coronavirus protocols handed down by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, according to CNN. Now, a recent meme involving Trump and the coronavirus is currently causing quite a stir on Twitter.
