It’s that time of the year again and Rockefeller Center has put up its famous Christmas tree, but this year, nobody is impressed.
As the tree went up for the holiday season on Tuesday, the bottom half seemed to be missing branches, resulting in a pretty empty and unimpressive sight.
Twitter users were quick to mock the tree, several likening it to Charlie Brown’s, while others drew parallels between New York’s sad tree and the city’s even sadder year.
While some were a bit harsh, including Fox News’ Sean Hannity and Bernard B. Kerik — a former police officer who received a presidential pardon from Donald Trump — others joked that the tree was the perfect ending to the horrors of 2020.

What is this, a joke? This is the Rockefeller Christmas tree for 2020. It depicts @NYCMayor‘s city as it stands today: broken, empty, drained of its life, by failed leadership and incompetence. pic.twitter.com/1S0qyIbmE1

The 2020 Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree looks like one of those really old tree people in “Lord of the Rings” that just wanders off into the forest to die
