So, full disclosure: this writer's boyfriend sent her this story while they were talking on the phone, just to hear her reaction.
She laughed out loud. Hard.
No really, when you read this headline, you will laugh, too:
Joe Biden's drama-free White House is America's most under-appreciated Christmas gift:https://t.co/cqLbVKB1Qa

Are they serious?
Yes they are.
With Hanukkah just over, and Christmas fast approaching, Americans are thinking a lot about gifts these days. According to Gallup in fact, we’re on pace to spend more this holiday season than we have in a quarter century.
Much of the reason for this can be attributed to President Joe Biden’s administration, which has helped engineer an economic recovery few thought possible when he came into office. Under his watch, inflation has plummeted with no sign of a recession. GDP growth was at 5% last quarter, with historically low unemployment, and robust wage growth.
The central mystery of this holiday season, for Biden, is why the American people seem to regard this booming economy as a lump of coal.
Theories abound. Some experts point to the cumulative effects of inflation, the skyrocketing price of homes, and the rising number of Americans whose views of the economy are based on fatalistic social media posts. Others cite the incessant economic fear-mongering of Fox News and its ilk. Still others blame the rise of hyper-partisanship.
This is laughably bad, and so out of touch.
You carry that water, media. Meanwhile, the rest of us will continue to live in this place called reality.
What planet are you on?

Mars or Jupiter, we think.
Definitely not Earth.

Oh, look. Corruption abounds.
Drama-free? Dude. Just off the top of my head, cocaine, dogs biting, guy in dress stealing luggage, man showing off his boobs...
— Jules! (@sparkly_jules1) December 22, 2023
Really. There are so many issues, calling this White House 'drama free' is like saying the grass is purple.
It's just not true.
That hasn't stopped people from buying this hook, line, and sinker:
Same with Barack Obama....the only scandals in his 8 year term were ones conjured up by Repugs like wearing a tan suit after Labor Day....

Suuuure. Whatever you say, Skippy.
Yep and people continuously underestimate Biden. That includes the freaking press
— Patti Capello (@mrspc52) December 22, 2023
The press? Hahahahaha. This is hilarious.
Whose cocaine was that in the drama free White House?
— Kip "$.16" Hooker (@TheVitaminPress) December 23, 2023
Apparently.
And there it is…the dumbest thing posted on X today…so far👇 https://t.co/qEN1wqxUJL
— Chuck Soltys (@ChuckSoltys) December 23, 2023
It really takes the cake, doesn't it?
And given all the dumb stuff that gets posted on Twitter/X, this is quite the accomplishment.
Is this parody? https://t.co/2eF5XDEU7x
— schotts (@schotts) December 22, 2023
Unfortunately, it is not parody.

Yes. Yes, it is.
Define drama free. Cocaine in the White House?
— brobert545 (@brobert545) December 22, 2023
Where are you going, Joe? Another 'senior moment' as confused President Biden ignores Secret Service agent directions into White House and bizarrely walks onto lawn
The White House is now an Alzheimer’s home. https://t.co/ScJV5CAWr5
Pretty much. Just the other day, we talked about how Biden's limitations are a source of conflict with his staff, and that the First Lady thinks the president -- who has vacationed for about 40% of his presidency -- needs to rest more.
Looks like someone got their hands on some White House cocaine. https://t.co/t1Dq4O8vsG

Honestly, that's the only explaination here.
“Drama Free”? Funniest thing I’ve ever heard. https://t.co/zuSVqmUCt0
— yoursailorgirl (@hitechpet1) December 22, 2023
It really is funny.
The US will spend more this holiday season than in decades, mainly attributed to the Biden admin, who helped engineer an amazing economic recovery.

The delusion is so strong.
Can’t be much drama when you sleep 20 hours a day. https://t.co/HlkkfjGfE0
— Troy L. Hayes (@TroyLHayes) December 23, 2023
And go on vacation several days a week, every week.
Never mind that Biden's approval rating is at an abysmal 33% -- lower than Trump and Obama at this point in their first terms.
Drama Free?
— Infamous_Gazelle02 (@InfamousQazelle) December 22, 2023
Gaslight me harder, Daddy!
And people actually believe this, like they believed that there were no scandals under Obama. It's upside down, inside out world around here lately. https://t.co/DG6LX2fnW0
The level of gaslighting would make Greta Thunberg faint.
That's because Joe forgets everything that happens by the next day. https://t.co/ILixkxO1l5
— #DontSupportRinos (@hodler_ltc) December 23, 2023
Can't be dramatic if you don't know where you are, we suppose.
"Drama free" refers to the coordinated effort by the usual noise-makers to run cover for the Biden administration https://t.co/iI073pxG0C
— Michael (@cookamungabunga) December 22, 2023
That's all this is: cover for a disastrous administration.
I worked in the WH for A decade and never was there cocaine found on the grounds, gay pornos happening in the building down the street, and an administration set to start/fund as many wars as possible.
— Socialtrainers (@Socialtrainers) December 23, 2023
Pretty sure this admin is and has been a disaster.
We remember administrations back to George H.W. Bush, and yeah, there's never been a White House that was 'drama free.' Never.
It's easy to seem relatively "drama free" when the mass media refuses to report on--or worse, outright denies--any of the drama.
— OlGunner (@Ol_Gunner) December 23, 2023
Exactly. As they are doing right now by calling the White House 'drama free.'
BREAKING: The Biden family German Shepherd just ingested some cocaine leftover from Hunter's holiday hooker party and mauled Santa Claus. https://t.co/jHJcmU6YbS
— NotKennyRogers (@NotKennyRogers) December 23, 2023
This could be a headline tomorrow and the media would just shrug.
Remember -- they say Biden's chronic, habitual lying is merely 'embellishments' to his stories.
It's a flagrant lie. We all know it's a lie. Because we have eyes and ears and jobs.
Drama free? we are being invaded by illegals. If you’re an elitist then it’s drama free. https://t.co/4DXw9Kj6cE
— Jack (@Jack87007385) December 22, 2023
Yes. If you are insulated, a leftist, or a Democrat (but we repeat ourselves), things are rosy in Biden's America.
For everyone else, there's drama to go around. Plenty of drama to go around.
And that's not a gift. It's a nightmare.
