Melania Trump reveals White House Christmas theme after saying 'who gives a f**k' in resurfaced clip

First Lady of the United States, Melania Trump, has revealed the White House Christmas theme as a resurfaced clip of her saying 'who gives a f*ck' makes it rounds on social media once again.

Earlier today (1 December), the 55-year-old shared in a video shared to her official @FLOTUS X account that the theme for this year's festive decorations is 'Home Is Where the Heart Is'.

"AMERICA’S CHRISTMAS," Melania captioned the short clip, which showed a montage of shots of the White House residence all done up, adding: "This Christmas, let’s celebrate the love we hold within ourselves and share it with the world around us.

"After all, wherever we are, we can create a home filled with endless possibilities."

It didn't take long at all for many social media users to rush in and remind the internet, once again, of the secret recordings of Melania taken in the summer of 2018 which saw her express her frustration at being criticised for her husband Donald Trump's policy of separating families who crossed the southern border while at the same time needing to perform traditional first lady duties, like preparing for Christmas.

"They say I’m complicit. I’m the same like him, I support him. I don’t say enough I don’t do enough where I am," she said in a tape secretly recorded by Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former friend and senior adviser to the first lady.

The now-viral tapes saw Melania continue to fume: "I’m working … my a** off on the Christmas stuff, that you know, who gives a f*ck about the Christmas stuff and decorations? But I need to do it, right?"

She added: "OK, and then I do it and I say that I’m working on Christmas and planning for the Christmas and they said, 'Oh, what about the children that they were separated?'

"Give me a f*cking break. Where they were saying anything when Obama did that? I can not go, I was trying get the kid reunited with the mom. I didn’t have a chance – needs to go through the process and through the law."

Melania's stance different from her husband's administration's approach. The Obama administration separated children from adults only in specific circumstances - when there were welfare concerns about the child or uncertainty about the adult's legal guardianship.

In contrast, the Trump administration implemented separation as a standard practice across the board, continuing until a court order mandated its end.

Melania's chief of staff Stephanie Grisham called out Wolkoff - who a wrote a book about her and Melania's relationship titled Melania and Me - for releasing the recording at the time.

"Secretly taping the First Lady and willfully breaking an NDA to publish a salacious book is a clear attempt at relevance. The timing of this continues to be suspect - as does this never-ending exercise in self-pity and narcissism," she said in a statement.

Despite the recording being leaked years ago, it's clear people haven't forgot as one X user piped up after seeing the latest White House update: "Remember when Melania literally said f*ck Christmas."

A second declared: "The whole world knows Melania doesn’t give a f*ck about Christmas."

"Per Melania recording... who gives a f*ck about Christmas stuff and decorations. Her words not mine," quipped a third while another chimed in: "I believe this is the same Melania that said I don't give a f*ck about Christmas or decorations!"

And a final X user echoed: "Almost time for Christmas with Melania. It’s not Christmas until her f*ck Christmas tirade."
