'So Disappointing': Stephen Colbert Mocks Melania Trump's Lackluster Christmas Video

On Wednesday, The Late Show host Stephen Colbert humorously commented on Melania Trump's subdued display of this years White House Christmas decorations. In a video accompanied by soft piano music, the First Lady is seen walking past Christmas trees adorned with white lights and pausing to examine a white ornament up close.

Colbert remarked, That is so sad. They didnt even play a Christmas carol; they played the prelude to an antidepressant commercial, before replaying the music and performing a playful imitation of a pharmaceutical ad announcer. Ask your doctor if Somazome is right for you. Side effects of Somazome include silent wandering, he added.

The host also pointed out that the White House decorations reportedly did not include a menorah or any references to non-Christian traditions. However, one notable display was a Lego portrait of President Donald Trump, which Colbert described as truly historic because its the first Legos you kind of want to step on.

Colberts full Wednesday monologue on The Late Show included these and other jabs at the holiday presentation, offering his signature comedic take on the White House festivities.
