Trump Demands Fashion Police for Zelensky’s Oval Office Visit
In a diplomatic drama worthy of a reality TV spin-off, the White House reportedly asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky if he'd ditch his signature 'military chic' for a suit before his Monday Oval Office meet-up with Trump. Last time, Trump sarcastically quipped, 'he is all dressed up today' about Zelensky's attire, contributing to a fiasco. This time, Zelensky's rocking a 'suit-style' black jacket he wore at NATO in the Netherlands—"like a normal human being," a U.S. official noted. Despite hopes for a tie, Zelensky ain't playing dress-up—Vice President Vance was apparently more bugged last time anyway.

When your diplomatic success hinges on whether you wear a tie, maybe peace talks need a stylist, not a summit. #SuitUpOrShipOut #DiplomaticDressCodeDrama
Forget missiles, the real weapons of mass distraction are Zelensky’s jackets and Trump’s tie standards. NATO’s got NATO, but White House’s got Fashion Police.
Zelensky showing up ‘like a normal human being’ but skipping the tie makes me think the suit rebellion is just a warm-up to climate change denial.
