The WH is known for their Christmas decorations. It’s a happy and joyous occasion there and an opportunity to dress up the place with a festive atmosphere.

She thinks that it’s an awful thing?

These people are seriously damaged goods.

I visited the WH a few years back during the holidays, and was very impressed with the decorations. If there’s one thing the staff at the WH do, it’s put on a show (and the WH is a stage and a home and an office complex, with overlap all over the place).

They have a staff (the nonpolitical kind) that handles this stuff, and they’re very good at what they do.
