The White House was transformed into a scene out of the circus on Wednesday night, as First Lady Jill Biden shared a video of tap dancers tapping their way through the halls. The video was met with widespread criticism, as viewers took to social media to express their disbelief and disappointment in the first lady’s post.
The video shared on the first lady’s official X account, featured dancers from Dorrance Dance performing their interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite. The dancers, dressed in bright and colorful costumes, tapped their way through the holiday-decorated White House, as upbeat music played in the background. The theme for this year’s White House decorations is “Magic, Wonder and Joy,” but the video received a very different reaction from viewers.
Many social media users expressed their shock and disgust at the bizarre and tasteless video. “The United States of Bananas,” one comment read, summing up the general sentiment of viewers. Another user wrote, “Imagine thinking this gives America the Christmas spirit,” while others described the video as “strange,” “freaky,” and “bizarre.”

Some commenters even compared the first lady’s post to one shared by former first lady Melania Trump during her time in the White House. The video, which featured a beautiful and tasteful display of Christmas decorations, was praised by many as a perfect representation of the holiday season. In contrast, viewers described Biden’s video as “utterly tacky, tasteless, and ANTI Christmas.”
Aside from the inappropriate and unconventional nature of the video, many people were also concerned with the cost of producing it. Some viewers asked if the video was a joke and wondered how much taxpayers were paying for such a frivolous display. This sentiment was echoed by others, who called the video “absolute garbage” and questioned its purpose.
The video also drew criticism for being unsuitable for children. Viewers expressed their concern over exposing children to such bizarre and inappropriate content from the White House. “ABSOLUTE GARBAGE,” one user commented, while others asked, “Is this a joke? Embarrassing. Inappropriate for kids.”
The First Lady’s post also sparked a discussion about the recent discovery of cocaine at the White House earlier this year. Some viewers sarcastically pointed out the apparent change from cocaine to acid in the executive mansion, as the video was described as a “trippy” and “jarring” experience.
Overall, the First Lady’s video received widespread backlash, with many questioning the intentions and appropriateness of the White House’s holiday display. The backlash highlights the importance of tasteful and inclusive holiday decorations in such a significant and symbolic location.
