I suggest that while the inhabitants of the WH all clearly celebrate Christmas, the photos are all staged and used to sell in some manner the current regimes throughout the history of the US. Clearly, the image of any first family around the Christmas tree, etc., sells to the masses.
Another example was Joan Crawford exploiting Christmas for pubilicity in that movie.
So, I think they all do it. On a similar note, the Clintons were always careful to be shown holding hands in Sunday service. While I think they were legit in being there, I think they knew that photo would play well. In fact, it likely was directed as are just about all photo ops.
