Jill Biden’s White House Christmas video is slammed as ‘bizarre, freaky and absolute garbage’

First Lady Jill Biden's attempts to spread some Christmas cheer were met with mockery and surprise by many who labeled her festive video as “bizarre,” “freaky” and “absolute nonsense.”

The video, posted Wednesday by Dr. Biden, shows members of a New York City dance troupe, Dorrance Dancers, performing a tap-dancing “playful” interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite through the hallways of the White House.

The group finds themselves in a candy-themed hall leading to the large Christmas tree in the Blue Room, which has usually been where the main tree has been located since 1961. The dancers show how each room is decorated for the festivities.

'A bit of magic, wonder and joy brought to you by the talented tappers of Dorrance Dance, as they perform their playful interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite. Enjoy!,” wrote Dr. Biden.

“Magic, Wonder and Joy” is the theme this year, President Joe Biden's third in the White House.

The dance was performed by the Dorrance Dancers, a New York City company

Throughout the video, the dancers in colorful costumes smile and tap away, but many on social media wondered what exactly the clip has to do with Christmas. The ballet in which the Nutcracker Suite appears takes place on Christmas Eve.

Others posted photos and videos with fond memories of former First Lady Melania Trump's Christmas celebrations, even though Melania famously said on tape, “Who gives a shit about the Christmas stuff and decorations?”

Melania later walked back her comments in an official statement.

The comments under Dr.'s official X account Biden were not friendly.

Right-wing blogger Ian Miles Cheong said Dr. Biden exuded a 'Hunger Games aesthetic' in 2023. Anti-vax activist Alex Rosen said: 'The second-hand embarrassment is off the charts.'

'This should have come with a sensitivity label. This is awful,” the infamous Libs of TikTok account wrote. “ABSOLUTE TRASH,” was someone else's opinion.

“It's a mentally ill Christmas in the Biden White House,” comedian Tim Young tweeted. 'You're so strange. Bizarre. Freaky,” another person said.

Conservative activist Brigitte Gabriel said: 'Children shouldn't be watching this shit.'

'Desperately giving in. SO.MUCH.CRINGE,” another user wrote.

“The only thing missing was Dylan Mulvaney!!!” another person said, referring to the 2023 scandal involving Bud Light and the trans influencer, which led to a mass boycott.

Many of those outraged pined for Melania Trump's previous Christmas decorations

Influencer ZNO posted a video showing Melania Trump's accolades from her time in the White House and wrote in the caption, “Never forget what they took from you.”

There were some crumbs of comfort in the comments for the first lady.

'That's incredible! The message brought a smile to my face. Hats off to Dorrance Dance and their hard work. I'm sure their interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite will continue to bring joy and wonder to audiences,” one user wrote.

“I absolutely love it, Mrs. Biden, just as much as we showed the love for your playful, creative side and art,” said another.

'Anyone would recommend Dr. Need to thank Jill Biden for bringing Christmas back to the White House after Melania destroyed it,” one user also said.

In November, Dr. Biden said she wanted to

everyone who visits the White House during the holidays to feel like a kid again.

“Each room is designed to capture this pure, unfiltered delight and imagination,” so visitors can “see this time of year through the wondrous, sparkling eyes of children,” the first lady said, kicking off a month of holiday receptions .

About 100,000 visitors are expected for the holidays.

Jill Biden said it was “so wonderful” to see the Christmas tree atop the East Wing entrance when they returned after Thanksgiving in Nantucket, Massachusetts.

“When Joe and I saw that last night, we were just mesmerized,” she said.

The whimsical set of oversized decorations is meant to evoke the feelings of awe and wonder that put children in a cheerful mood during the holidays, White House aides said.

On two public floors of the White House, the decor features several nods to the 200th anniversary of the publication of the poem and book commonly known as “Twas the Night Before Christmas.”

The papier-mâché reindeer hanging in the foyer are “so cool,” she said. “It's like they jump out of the pages of the storybook. I don't know what you think about it. I just find it breathtaking.”

The Library of Congress has provided examples of editions of the book from the past 200 years, which are displayed in protective cases along the main floor hallway.

The traditional Gingerbread White House features a large sugar cookie replica of the book, opened to a page that reads “Merry Christmas to all, and good night to all.” Santa's sleigh and reindeer also fly above the cookie white house.

National Guard families, who joined the first lady as part of her Joining Forces initiative to support military families, were among the first members of the public to see the awards.

Children from these and other military families were also treated to a performance by the cast of the North American tour of the Disney musical “Frozen.”

One of the first Christmas trees visitors see after entering the White House is decorated with wooden gold star ornaments engraved with the names of fallen service members.
