President Trump, it seems, is fully dedicated to go his own way when it comes to international relations – even during the funeral of a Pope.
On Saturday, when he joined other world leaders to express his respect to Pope Franciscus, he stood on St. Peter’s Square under President Emmanuel Macron of France (who wore Zwart), Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Great -Britain, President Javier Meloni of Argentina (in black).
Mr. Trump? He was wearing blue.
And not even dark, midnight blue, but a clear, sapphire -like blue, with matching tie. In the midst of all the black and cardinal red it dived out like a plate.
The choice code for the event did not violate the choice (which Reportedly Called up to a dark suit with a black tie for men). Prince William also seemed to wear blue, although a shadow closer to the navy, and former President Joseph R. Biden Jr. A blue draw was wearing. But the appearance of Mr. Trump has certainly sustained the edges.
It did not go unnoticed onlineWhere users of social media remembered that Mr Trump previously criticized that President Volodymyr Zensky van Ukraine was not wearing a matter for a meeting in the Oval Office in February and it seemed to see as a sign of lack of respect. (At the funeral of the Pope, the Lord Zelensky, who in advance met private individuals with Mr. Trump, a black coat in the military style and black pants.)
Asked to comment on Mr Trump’s choice, said Karoline Leavitt, the press secretary of the White House,
Steven Cheung, the Communication Director of the White House, reprimanded those who criticized the Lord Trump and said: “The president and first Lady Eerden Eerden the lives and service of Pope Francis, and those who try to distract themselves should be ashamed of themselves.”
For someone who is so keen aware of the power of appearance as Mr. Trump, the case was probably not a chance decision. Not a case, for example, that no clean dark options are packed on Air Force One. Melania Trump finally wore a black jacket (from Italian designers Dolce & Gabbana) and Black Veil, just like Brigitte Macron and Jill Biden.
And Mr. Trump owns a dark suit – he wore one for the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter in January.
But in this case, Black may not have served his goals. The choice of Mr. Trump for deep sea blue, on the other hand, was both immediately recognizable and seemed entirely in line with his desire to telegraaf that he plays by no one’s rules, except his. Another attempt to redefine old engagement conditions as he sees – well, fit.
