Trump Fumed: Where Are The Lederhosen, Tiny Hats?
At Monday's Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, President Donald Trump expressed his displeasure because, in his words, 'not a single one of them had arrived in lederhosen and a tiny feathered hat.' Clearly offended by what he perceived as a dress code faux pas from European leaders, Trump deemed their lack of traditional Bavarian attire as 'rude.' This colorful demand adds an unexpected layer of sartorial expectations to diplomatic protocol in Washington, blending fashion with foreign policy in what might be a first for the White House.
