Melania Trump has unveiled this year’s White House Christmas decorations and naturally, the internet has noticed something… odd.
The First Lady has reportedly been working on this year’s decorations since August, but it only took Twitter a couple of hours to point out the likeness of her red tress to handmaids from The Handmaids Tale.
This year’s theme is “American Treasures” (which was not a reference to Elisabeth Moss, apparently).
“This is a joyous time of year when we decorate the White House for the Christmas season. Our theme honours the heart and spirit of the American people,” FLOTUS said in a statement.
“Thank you to the many volunteers and staff who worked hard to decorate the halls of the People’s House in Christmas cheer. On behalf of my family, we wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”

There is a blue display and a white display (get it? red white and blue?) but you haters enjoy yourselves, I can't get off this website fast enough.
Oh, Melania, what have you done?
I'm in hysterics over this one. Especially since I myself am sitting here on my deck with a red umbrella over my head. When it's closed, it looks like your trees; when it's open, hey, it's almost like
(Ah, hem), like the red stripes of blood painted as a covering over the door posts of the Israelites and whatever Egyptians chose to follow the command of putting it over their door for protection.
Those trees would be a lot more fun if, on on Christmas Eve, you could open them up like umbrellas.
