It's so sad. White House Christmas 2017 is no longer family viewing

Running around doing Holiday stuff.
Shopping. Momma has set up a "Winter wonderland" in the front room (which we never use other than this time of year) including the TV we never used from the bedroom. She and little one have spent much of the day setting up the extensive nutcracker collection.

So we all come down to the den for dinner. Yes the dining room is full. So I switch off football to see what's on Apple TV. I see that "White House Christmas 2017" was on HGTV. Sorry can't watch it.

Maybe it's a reflection on me but I can't allow my family to see this.

BTW - my girl knows how horrible IT is. We try to shield her from political discussions.

every year, all the details and the intricate designs, all the people who came from all over to help set it up. It was great. Like you, I cannot and will not watch it anymore. I loath this Dump family too much.

are old enough to be appalled by the filth that now squats in our beautiful White House. And my first grandbaby is so young she might also be spared if we manage to get him out soon.

I honestly don't know how I would explain him to a child.
