Beldon Haigh hits the humorous jackpot with “White House Meltdown Christmas,” a hilarious end-of-year song that ties 2024 up in an ecstatically irreverent bow. Combining razor-sharp satire with holiday cheer, this single and its impeccably crafted video take you to a Glamour Do’s exclusive (and raucous) White House holiday party with none other than Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Kim Jong Un.
With a backdrop of lavish decorations, Trump-branded ornaments, and a “biggly” Christmas tree, the band riffs on the machinations of politics with wit and theatrical flair. The decades-honoring, soaring, seventies-style chorus is a toe-tapping earworm that will undoubtedly soundtrack many forthcoming holiday parties.
The video goes to a new level of delight. They range from the leaders’ feuds over a giant (nuclear) red button to Boris Johnson’s cake-smashing cameo, a visual extravaganza that combines dark comedy with an unmistakable holiday spirit. The parody is elevated to unsettling realism and wildly funny with lifelike masks and spot-on caricatures.
“White House Meltdown Christmas” combines classic holiday-ears bigness with a satirical edge. It’s a Christmas cracker with substance, wit, and a healthy splat of insouciance that deserves to go down as one of 2024’s headline releases.
Whether you’re there for the music, the laughs, or the unordinary outrageousness of the concept, this is a Christmas anthem unlike any other.
