Trump: Pets, kids and Christmas: How the White House has changed under Biden – Times of India

Washington: President Joe Biden Transformed the White House in Its First Year With Policies That Unrecognizable trump Era – at least in relation to the policy on pets, i.e.
Here are some reasons why the vibe at America’s Most Famous Home since Joe and First Lady Zilla is a little different Biden got the key from donald and Melania Trump.
Trump was the first modern American president to have no pets. A acknowledged germaphobe, though he preferred to use “dog” as an insult to everyone from terrorist suspects to former employees and political opponents.
Bidens are true dog lovers.
In June, his beloved champion, an elderly German Shepherd, died. Then Major, a bouncy shelter dog, got into trouble repeatedly biting security personnel and others in the crowded compound.
After retraining efforts, Major had to move to a less stressful home.
But just in time for Christmas — and a photogenic outing with the first couple on a Delaware beach — came Commander, a German Shepherd puppy. Yes, she’s cute.
As for the Biden cat, the White House has yet to deliver on initial promises.
Trump’s family was running the country. Biden has them run around the South Lawn.
Daughter Ivanka Trump took a job as a senior adviser to her father, which saw her attend Oval Office meetings and attend international summits. Her husband, businessman Jared Kushner, at various points ran everything from Middle East peace talks to the response to the pandemic.
Sons Don and Eric Trump were often warm acts for their father at many of his rallies. Barron, the teen son of Trump and Melania, was rarely seen, who cut a lone person around the White House.
Bidens are more likely to be seen with noisy grandchildren crew. The president also sometimes takes children or their friends on private tours by Marine One helicopter or Air Force One.
Biden’s second son Hunter, 51, has largely been off the radar.
A former alcoholic and drug addict, he was the target of fierce corruption charges. Hunter Biden now paints and last year released an autobiography, “Beautiful Things,” detailing his traumatic life.
Melania Trump raised eyebrows one year with Christmas decorations that conveyed a frosty white tone, prompting lewd comments about the former model being the “ice queen.”
In another December, decorations featured a shocking amount of red, including rows of entirely red Christmas trees, which joked that they resembled the famous squirt of blood scene in the horror film “The Shining”. .
The Bidens had their first Christmas as usual at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The trees were their traditional green, the decor casual and nonjudgmental. There was even a photo of Trump, based on family photos from former First Families – offering a seasonal peace to a man whom Biden made no pretense of liking.
When it comes to religion in general, the gap between the two men could not have been so deep.
Trump, despite being affiliated with powerful Evangelical Christian political leaders, rarely attends church, while Biden attends Catholic Mass almost weekly, whether in Washington, at home in Delaware, or so forth.
Trump claimed to hate journalists, regularly insulting individual journalists and entire media organizations, which he called the “enemy of the people.”
Trump, on the other hand, loved talking to reporters and he spoke at length to them, whether at press conferences, in small gatherings, or shouting at the noise of his waiting Marine One helicopter.
Meanwhile, one of his press secretaries, went a year without holding a briefing, essentially turning Trump into his own spokesman.
Biden has reversed the pattern. His press secretary, Jen Psaki, conducts long, detailed daily briefings, containing dozens of questions.
The president himself is relatively rarely seen, and he is usually limited to only a handful when he asks questions.
According to the US Presidency Project at the University of California-Santa Barbara, Biden has held nine news conferences in his first year, compared to 22 in Trump’s first 12 months.
Trump also conducted 92 sit-down interviews during that time, compared to about 22 for Biden – something that White House reporters regularly complain about.
