On December 3, 2024, X user @BehizyTweets posted a side-by-side comparison of Melania Trump and Jill Biden's Christmas decorations. In the comparison, Jill Biden's decor featured a carousel and Christmas trees with a more colorful look, while Melania's decoration featured multiple Christmas trees with yellow lighting alongside white flowers as the theme.

Internet users were quick to take sides and posted their opinions on the same via X. Taking a dig at Melania's 2018 Christmas decoration at the White House while praising Jill, an X user tweeted:

"Much better than the red hall of death by the previous lady."
"💙 This will be the last ‘pretty’ Christmas White House decorations for the next 4 yrs. I can’t even imagine what crazy lady has in store for everyone next yr." an X user tweeted
"Thank God for the sanity and respect shown in this Administration! Beautiful." another X user commented
"If you’re criticizing Joe and Jill Biden’s modest and intimate Christmas photo, cast your eyes back to how Melania decorated the White House, a creepy dystopian red Christmas tree display, devoid of love, decorations and care." a netizen said

However, some netizens also sided with Melania Trump and praised her Christmas decoration over Jill Biden's:

"Someone tell Jill the White House is already the Clown House. She didn't have to make it worse." an X user commented
"Looks like Jill decorated for a circus." another X user mentioned
"Bless her heart, Jill Biden has no taste, and her decorating style sucks, too." an internet user said
