Except….he is wearing a suit

That's the face of "get your filthy traitorous hands off me."

The European leadership supporting him all need to dress like him too.

Disagree. At this moment in time, they should adhere to official dress code becoming heads of states that are not (yet) at war. Zelenskyy, however, has every right to demonstrably wear an outfit that is fitting for the head of a country fighting a desperate war against a monstrous aggressor.

In normal times I would agree with you, but not with this opportunity.

I would have liked for them to wear on their lapels combined flags of their respective states with the Ukrainian colours. But please no dress-up that looks like a masquerade - I shudder to think of the ridiculous spectacle of Friedrich Merz in combat gear...

Combined flags lapel pins is a good idea, but trump's campaign against democracy is in large part a visual, theatrical war. It's language that would humiliate him and his base by not caving to his idiotic demands. It's the language he understands being as hollow as he is.

I agree that images and symbols matter. But the heads of state are not only there as supporters for Zelenskyy, they also represent their states and as such, they have to look as professional as possible. And in their case, that means the usual attire for heads of state. It is like their armor.

Everything else would be interpreted by Trump as a sign of weakness and would be picked apart by the mainstream media. The story should not be what leaders are wearing, but the future of the Ukraine. BTW if decorum was not essential, I would like them all to wear upside down US flags...

Where is this official dress code?

All these heads of state wear what they wear at official ceremonies, whatever the occasion, in their own countries and abroad. This is their proper attire as heads of state. Before his country was invaded, Zelenskyy was wearing a suit. When his country is at peace again, he shall wear a suit again

So it sounds like you are contradicting yourself.

I do not think so. Official dress code is: The head of state wears an outfit that represents a dress of a powerful leader IN HIS/HER CULTURE. Only in WESTERN cultures (excluding the Vatican and royalty) that is the suit for males (for women, often a pants suit).

Where did you find that?

I found the wikipedia entry for formal luncheons with the interesting note: Visitors may wear national costume instead of evening dress. (see section 'state dinner' here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_v...

Yeah that says a whole lot of things that did not happen like meeting the visitor at Joint Base Andrews, red carpet, military honor guard, arrival fanfare, cannon volley at the WH, playing the national anthem of the visitor's country. And oh yeah not bullying your visitor.

The essential thing seems to be that an attire is considered 'formal' and does not insult the sensitivities of the hosting nation. This becomes even more apparent if we look at the reverse situation: A western diplomart visiting a non-western state.

Nope. Zelenskyy is in the right. Just a short time ago trump refused to wear a dark blue suit to the funeral of the Pope even though it was requested. Instead he wore his normal clown suit.

We do not disagree here - Zelenskyy is in the right to wear what he wore at his most recent meeting, at the pope's funeral and now. I opposed a request to have the European heads of state dress up as Zelenskyy to show solidarity.

I was hoping he and all the European leaders would all come wearing track suits.

What a bunch of brain dead bed wetters.

#MAGAPedos

And he's bringing his friends. Smart move. youtu.be/MwwSua0zdIY

We all know suits are MANDATORY in the People's House.

D i s t r a c t i o n

Ridiculous and silly! No costume for Ukraine’s President, a warrior who will not adhere to the traitor felon conman Bone Spurs’ dress code!

Tell MAGA I heard Zelensky promised to wear a suit when Russia goes home & all Americans will try to wear a suit while dancing in the street when Taco dies!

You'd think it would bother MAGA that their hero wears the same thing every single day.

A nation's President has no reason to take orders about clothing from our pitiful.....whatever-he-is

IDK. Looked enough like a suit to me. WGAF what he wore?

He should have worn a tan suit.😁

??? for the group - how do you promote and share a draft city ordinance while incorporating good edit suggestions along the way? A read-only gdoc and an explainer "this paragraph is to..." is my only idea now.

😂

Zelenskyy should have worn a suit and made it tan.

Had not seen this pic before. Hot.

Screw the WH

The current WH only screws the unwilling.

That's rape. So I guess you're correct

I know a lot of shit has happened since his "exit" so it's hard to keep track. But just two words regarding appropriate attire worn in the Oval Office--Elon Musk.

Zelensky snubbing his nose at DonOld after showing him he ‘has the cards’….

Kinda wish he showed up in top hat, tails and monocle and asked if it was enough to get the US to support the return of their stolen children.

But they are ok with Trump turning the White House into a gaudy Palace!

Good!

Actually I think trump is just jealous because Zelenskyy looks sooooooo much better in whatever he wears then trump does in his ill fitting suits!

LOVE PRESIDENT ZELENSKY!!

Various Xitters are posting pics of Zelensky in a t-shirt. As near as I can tell that is from a different meeting. While it lacks a tie, Zelensky is wearing suit like attire.

The fake drama is fucking exhausting 🙄

Zelensky doesn’t wear a suit…Putin murders women and children… not sure those are equal you fucking morons. MAGA are the stupidest, petty losers on earth. Even fatal laughs at you and thinks your POS. A lot if people have asked fatso to resign. You can’t always get what you want. MAGA STFU!

Important shit...

They didn't ask him to wear a suit, they asked if he was going to wear a suit. Those are two very different things.

I'm hoping all of them stand in solidarity and don't wear suits. Let the wanna be bullies cringe.

I'm more upset that trump still doesn't know how to put on makeup.

As a show of protest, MAGA morons are welcome to join the Russian army…

They should have all showed up in matching pjs. Blue & yellow.

President Zelenskyy explained why he dresses the way he does, after the last insult. Wasn’t it Churchhill and Roosevelt dressed casually when visiting the White House? trump wears a suit and he is a convicted felon. Clothes don’t make people.

Trump also wears a diaper, lifts and a girdle what a manly man. 🤣🤣

Hitler couldn't shit he was so hopped up on amphetamines. usually people shit themselves. The rapist Donald J Trump must wear diapers on his chemical cocktail.

Pretty sure he blew out his colon in the 80s due to extreme cocaine use.

He's got coke colon

Coke was his Vietnam.

🤣🤣🤣

I tried to follow you again for this. 🩳🤣

How many Maggots actually wear or can even afford a suit?... 🤔 🤔 🤔...The Ignorance of this population is unbelievable!

🖕 trump!!!

Maybe MAGAt Congressional Rethugs can go to Moses Mike’s or Lindsey Graham’s for make-up tutorials by JD Prance! They can learn about eyeliners and general makeup appl for that busy politician on the go! Ms. Graham can share stories from the old “Stonewall” days-I’m sure she was right there!#LGBTQ+🌈

Yet rolling out a red carpet for a war criminal on US soil is just fine... 😢

How about this one

Stephen Miller wears a suit every day, and he is an absolute ghoul to people all the time. Miller has no respect for Americans! Release the #EpsteinFiles! #PutinOwnsTrump

a viper in a suit

I’m waiting for his big head to explode.

I know what could help with that. 5.56 or .308!

Every day Miller has trump's ear. Miller is all the grand plan.

The one that got shot??

With a blood capsule...

I’m more concerned about so called ICE agents not wearing id.

Did you see what meidas put up this morning..horrific replays of nazi germany style seizures. Someone needs to do an edit of side by side videos..germany vs ice seizure similarity...its horrible!

Didn’t see it, but stuff I have seen looks like the worst kind of dystopian film. I’ve always wondered how the Nazis were just able to implement their ideology without a strong backlash. Now it’s unfolding in front of my eyes.

Why would Zelensky do anything Trump says? Trump is so far in Putin’s pocket that he can’t see out.

He did wear a suit

Though I love that he normally doesn’t I guess he wanted to avoid the distraction maga makes it to be.

Did the WH actually ask him to? Or is that just a reference to the one reporter who questioned his attire last time?

He was wearing a suit ... just not the one preferred by Trump fans. Between what Zelenskyy was wearing and what Trump was draped with, Z looked a lot more "professional" relative to his situation. Trump looked like his regular bordering-on-slobbery-but-rich self.

👇

He is wearing a military style suit. But it’s a suit so Trump and MAGAmorons can’t criticize that. Great statement by Zelenskyy in wearing military style suit.

Agree

Republican men can’t handle the fact that President Zelenskyy is the man they will never be!

Part of me wanted Z to wear a tan suit.

I’m not here to comment I just wanted to add fuel to the fire

🙄

It’s all stupid. This is not the White House, this trumpville. No respect needed.

I’m so sick of those scumbags. Every decent person who goes into the WH should stop wearing suits in solidarity

Exactly. Senator John Featherbrain wears his hoodie! 🤷

If you enter the WH, you better have a hazmat suit on! Considering the criminals that walk those halls & you don't know where those hands have been! Parody or not?!?

The smell alone would be reason enough.

Same. Hypocrites. As if trumps visitors all dress so well. Those JA’s wear their trucker hats half the time.

Look at the court jester 😂

He’s disgusting. And his music is 🤢

If you want to call that noise music 😁😁

Good point. I try to be open minded about genres, but his is just garbage.

They’re not upset that the WH forgot Zelenskkys red carpet?

He didn't have time to shop.

Does anyone really care what MAGA traitors think or say?

💯

please tell me all the other world leaders showed up in t shirts and jackets

Meanwhile child sex trafficking is perfectly okay.

He has on a black jacket and a collared shirt, he looks fine. Is a tie really going to make a difference in the negotiations?

Man Without a Suit. bsky.app/profile/opsa...

MAGA stupid ignorant snowflakes. Where were they when Musk was running around in a t shirt? This kind of crap doesn’t hold up any longer.

I'm happy he didn't wear a suit but I afraid it will only hurt Ukraine because Trump & JD are rat bastards looking for any excuse to kiss Putin's ass.

Looked like a suit to me. A military-style suit. A special FU to Vance.

HAHHHH tRump is not his boss

The White House can take a flying f*ck at a rolling donut.

Never heard that one before but I like it 👍😂

#Zelensky is wearing a suit. For the blind: can someone shout clearly "Zelensky is wearing a suit that is designed with respect, yes, RESPECT to his people being attacked in a brutal war."

Would have been great if everyone showed up in fatigues.

Slava Ukraini !!

Looks like a suit to me .

He did wear a suit.

Snowflakes, all of them.

Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein

It's simply the truth. It's not a lie that someone is pushing because they don't like him. Over the last 30yrs. Trump sexually abused underage girls and Epstein provided those girls. PERIOD 💯 💯 PERIOD 💯 💯 💯 PERIOD 💯 💯 💯

I see not wearing a suit as a giant FU to trump ! Love it ! 👏👏

So, to clarify: T**** is plausibly a pedophile. Crickets Zelenskyy doesn’t wear a suit. Meltdown.

Good! No, great!!!!

Excellent

Resist!

Good!

European posse won't allow JD Pance, Marco Rubles, & PEDOfuhrer to walk all over them! Unlike the Alaska Pedophile Summit debacle. 🤬

Naturally, that's what they'd focus on instead of their MAGA daddy doing Putin's bidding.

He is the best kind of rebel! 😭😂

Oh screw them. A suit doesn't make a man. Good for Zelensky for being his OWN man 💙💛

Damn straight!

Screw them is right! Did t they ask trump to wear a dark or black suit to thePope’s funeral and he wore that same wrinkled suit he always wears! Zelensky is ten thousand times the man 🍊POS is! Hi sweetheart! Hope you’ve been well, I’m doing ok, just been very busy!

Hi there sweetheart!! I’ve missed you! Yes, rump is so fcking classless and vulgar for wearing that suit to the Pope’s funeral 🤬🤬Who cares what Z wears! He could walk in wearing his pj’s and I wouldn’t care. I respect him for his integrity, not his clothes. Hey, I love you my dear friend, always 🤗😘🥰

Love you too my sweet girl! ❤️

MTG’s boyfriend felt compelled to bring this up again “I see you are wearing a suit today, a nice suit!” President Zelenskyy’s response: “Thank you! And you are wearing a nice suit as well, the same suit as last time!” 💪👍👏

Nothing warms my heart more; than the heat from one of their stupid meltdowns.

Love that he didn't.

The fellas call him a " classless clown with no decorum". I call one a hollow sack of shit and then I am emotionaly immature for using insults 😂

MAGA snowflakes

Trump is to America as Yanukovych is to Ukraine.

Day after Ukraine liberated, I hope Paris and Milan outfit him for life.

Interesting signaling with this move. To me it says that Zelensky knows that there is no way the Trump admin is going to help him, he has the backing of European allies, so best to not appear subservient to Trump in any way. A bit risky but at this point Zelensky has nothing to lose.

It doesn't matter what Zelensky is wearing, he has clean underwear and he doesn't have a fucking diaper full of shit.

😆😆😆😆😆😆😆👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Fuck MAGA. They support pedos.

Yes, they dooo!

Dennis Hastert

And in many cases, ARE pedos.

It’s why they’re so supportive!

Many MANY cases. In fact, they’re quite notorious for it.

Within their party, celebrated.

And Putin included Russia

Good for President Zelensky.

Why does he need a suit, who cares if he even wears sweats except the assholes in trumps administration

Yeah, they really care about this shit

Next time, Zelenskyy needs to bring a couple booger miners with him. On second thought, that would be dangerous for the kids- to be around the Pederast in Chief.

The MAGA sheep are the stupidest breed on earth

They melt down over everything. They’re hysteria is sort of funny.

I can’t believe I spelled their like that. I changed the direction of the sentence in composing it. Grrrrr.

Musk never wore a suit and Trump wears a baseball cap in the oval office which to me is the highest level of disrespect in regards to the dress code.

☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️That. Right. There. Perfectly said.

Musk wears a baby as a helmet

👇🤪

Yet Kid Rick and Elon Musk are welcomed into the Oval Office in more casual attire.

Trump minions have a "Trump ton" of nerve giving anyone instruction on how to dress!

But he was wearing a suit??

Where is the meltdown over the Epstein files?

Good for Zelenskyy. Nice little act of defiance. 👏 This White House is so petty. How about focus on the fact that Russia attacked Ukraine unprovoked, and are killing their people?

While flying an American flag- to flaunt the fact that they own the POSUS (💩). They're showing that America supports them- and the government isn't saying otherwise.

OMG! Bad enough to stick their invasive heads into personal bedrooms, kitchens, public restrooms, doctor’s offices & hospital rooms NOW this 5 year old in charge of our country thinks it’s ok to dictate clothing! Idiot republicans! WAKE UP bc you are headed to hell & taking the world with you.

He should have worn a tan suit.

“Maybe I will wear costume after this war is finished”

Small minds & all of that…to the sexual deviants & child rapists of the GOP, it’s only important how you look, not who you are…

...mmmmk.

More like “mmmmmeth”.

🤣

2 clowns.

🤹‍♂️ 🎪 🤹

😂😂😂😂

wasn't kid rock in the oval office wearing a leather(?) red white and blue costume? Was that ok?

Looks to me like he’s wearing a suit.

Maybe roll out the red carpet for him...

We apparently only force our American service members to do that for war criminal dictators. I am ashamed for America that they complied.

Russian tanks attacking Ukraine flying fuck Russian AND American flags !! Trump's Putin meeting seems to have had some unannounced results. But a fucking suit

I would have been upset if he had worn a suit.

He did wear a suit.

Fuck MAGA

That selective outrage strikes again…

Zelenskyy isn't a Republiklan. He doesn't answer to Trump.

Who said he quit? How old are the spa girls at Mar-A-Largo these days?

He gave up fucking them, now he is raping them.

I’m sure his tiny tackle doesn’t work anymore.

Pedophiles never stop. Castration is the only option.

That doesn't stop them, either. Best to send them to CECOT.

‘They asked him to …’ so here’s the rub for me, the Orange clown wears that red tie every day like Ronald McDonald … lets ask him not to.

Message to those MAGA folk … you are phuking low life trailer trash Nazis! That’s all !

They are so shallow. No substance, just image. Complete idiots.

He wore a suit.

SHARING - NOT MINE, ALTHOUGH AGREE

Good.

bsky.app/profile/anto...

Imagine being outraged at that and not a pedophile rapist squatting in the WH. Priorities riiigh?! 🤨🙄

They were outraged about President Obama’s tan suit also which tells you all you need to know about those losers.

Watch the snowflakes melt

"ThIs iS NoT prOPeR deCorUm For a fOReIgN LeAdEr viSItiNG tHE wHITe hoUSe!" Signed, MAGA wearing pajamas to Walmart.

He made a vow not to wear one until the war was won, so if you really want him too Taco then help Ukraine kick putins ass.

I respect him for that💙💛💪

Hahahahaha Nobody gives a f*ck MAGA

Anyone who tells Trump to fuck off by word or deed is a hero, in my book.

Fuck off with the dress code! A suit doesn’t give you a brain, spine or heart. Just look at The GOP.

👍👏

And they didn't care when tRump wore a blue suit to the Popes funeral. He was asked to wear black.

Well said.👍

bsky.app/profile/bulg...

As we have said..in yhe oval office nack in feb there was one man eithout a suit, and many with suits but no men. A suit means nothing.even if he did wear one, trump and company would find a way to disparage Zelenskyy, a man with so much more courage than the whole of this admin!

He said when the war is over he would wear a suit.

Yeah...because the MAGA guests have always looked their best. Everyone must follow @governor.ca.gov's lead and fight fire with fire. This is a corrupt and disgusting regime that is infesting the White House. The vermin MUST be removed. The orange moron and his minions are traitors. FFS a suit..?!🤦

I will wear a suit to trump's execution. Will that do?

They'll really lose it when he calls Trump, "President Epstein".

I never saw any war leader wear a suit ✌🏻

Don't need one if you have bone spurs.

Instead you wear a blue suit to the Pope’s funeral. 🙋‍♂️

With a red tie,

Red ties are Trump’s trademark 🪆

The absolute arrogance of this regime reflects their immaturity, lack of seriousness, and extreme insecurity.

I fucking loved the shade he threw at Marjorie Taylor Greene’s douchebag boyfriend for wearing the same suit he wore at the last Oval Office meeting

Shall we mention Lavrov?

Why TF does it matter what he wears? Trump wears a suit every day, but that doesn’t change the fact he’s a piece of ****. What matters is the heart and mind of the person in that suit, and Zelensky has clearly won the war on both of those points when compared to Trump.

Defiant. I love it!

Well, where was his red carpet? Thought we did that for world leaders?

And yet they had zero problem with “Kid” Rock’s clown costume.

People rarely wear suits when they go to circus

They are so childish

MAGA has a meltdown for everything. Stupid fuckers are worried about Zelensky’s attire while democracy is hanging by a fucking thread. Trump wishes he could pull off Zelensky’s look.

And some woman leaders and wives of leaders are wearing pants! HOORAY! Long time ago - I was the first woman associate to wear a pantsuit to the Chicago office of an elite NY law firm. No dress code. It was THE topic of the day. Nothing happened. It was a LAW firm - no basis to do anythnig.

Coming from people who wear a wife beater tee to the Walmart. But Dems are elitist FO

After how he was berated the last time he was there? He owes that crook nothing.

Didn't seem to mind Bukele wearing something less than business casual

Wouldn't it have been fun if he wore a tan suit? But I think he is well within his rights to chose a garb that suits the occassion and the occasion is his country is at war.

You would think with all Trump‘s money that he could dress better.

What do they tell people from other countries that come to the White House to wear, i.e. Saudi Arabia?

Well, the White House can f*ck off. Drumpf is MAGAts' 'daddy', not Zelenskyy's.

Fuck them in their overstretched t shirts

In case you need a laugh despite all of this insanity. politicalamericans.com/zelensky-bil...

Did he wear a tan suit? Should've worn a tan suit...

Baiting #MAGAsses is like shooting fish in a barrel.

I'm clutching my pearls...🙄

He is wearing a suit. It's all black and not like what Americans suits look like. He has Jacket, shirt and tie. Even trump complimented him on his suit.

Evidently it’s a type of military field jacket. So … yay! www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/u...

MAGA aside, it is a bit confounding, given that Zelensky is clearly willing to make other more significant concessions. He should’ve worn the suit, if it helped Ukraine’s chances even minutely. Optics are important. And it comes off as disrespectful.

He wore a suit, tailored like a uniform. :)

And you see it was welcomed by all. Good decision

Short lapels compared to business suits. A professional comedian can verbally top a MAGA journalist by marriage.

And what was the dress code here? Trump is the last person who should be insisting on anything, let alone what someone wears.

A rapist insisting on standards of 'decency'.

under trump the US is now a global f*cking joke...

Poor poor Trump administration. Desperately trying to uphold "standards" of dress to achieve optimum response in Trump "peace negotiations".

Lol

WAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA my hero ❤️ ...... cannot believe those WH 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 asked him to wear a suit ..... who in the F do they think they are

But it's OK for the Saudis not to.

What? Was that somehow not a suit by their twisted reckoning? They can F the F right off with that bullshit.

He could borrow the suit that #KidRock wore to the Oval Office: I don't recall any meltdown over that lack of respect.

Can someone please do a meme of donald wearing this getup? I would if I knew how.💕

This joke wasn’t much better.

Classy...

Well, it did have American flags on it...🙄

resist

Love it.

Oh hell, LET’S GO ZELENSKY , WHILE YOU’RE AT IT CALL HIM A PAB!

Maybe they should be melting down about how spineless their dear leader is.

Can CNBC go back to the market?

overalls should be fine!

I’m hoping he went with this look

🤣🤣

Would be even better if the shirt was the military fatigue green he normally wears.

Perfect 😍

He is wearing a suit.

Meanwhile, it would be nice if someone on occasion changed their suit, shirt and tie v wearing the same costume. One for casual, one dress. Also, can we talk about the Betty Crocker icing hairdo?!?!

MAGA has to be the biggest snowflakes of all time. Zelenskyy is leading a country that's defending itself against brutal Russian attack. AFAIC, that entitles him to wear whatever the hell he wants.
