@PA Mom-mom I just read your post and it's making me LAUGH. I'm the same way !!
Hahaha!

I don't know why it can't be decorated beautifully like the Rockefeller Center tree.
Nets of lights are tacky.

@Porcelain @ValuSkr The use of netting is fairly standard.
It's been used through several years so I'm not sure why this one is "tacky".

Interestingly, the first National Christmas tree lighting was kicked off by President Calvin Coolidge, in 1923. The huge tree was from his native Vermont:

@ValuSkr As far back as I can remember, the National Tree has been pretty much a debacle. It's part of a much larger display and who knows why they do it the way they do. Around DC it's pretty much a given that the tree to see is the US Capitol Tree, which is always far lovlier and far more natural looking... It is not netted and made to looked like it's been trussed up...
