Fox Across America host Jimmy Failla has great theory about why Zelenskyy didn't wear a suit yesterday

There’s been no shortage of analysis following Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visit to the U.S. and address before a joint meeting of Congress, but possibly the most bizarre sort of analysis has been about his choice of clothing. Zelenskyy didn’t wear a suit and opted instead for something much simpler.

Zelensky's Fashion Choices Are Not the Issue Here https://t.co/qyOlhjGEV3

During the biggest land war in Europe since World War II, getting upset about what Zelensky chooses to wear while visiting the U.S. seems awfully silly and shallow.https://t.co/qyOlhjp43v

— Jim Geraghty (@jimgeraghty) December 22, 2022

That’s because it is silly and shallow. More from Jim Geraghty:

Yesterday brought a lot of discussion about Volodymyr Zelensky’s choice to wear his usual dark-green sweatshirt and cargo pants while visiting the White House. Some people’s comments on social media seemed downright enraged, with Benny Johnson fuming, “This ungrateful piece of s*** does not have the decency to wear a suit to the White House — no respect the country that is funding his survival . . . track suit wearing eastern european con-man mafia [sic].” [Twitchy editor’s note: Benny Johnson has a real knack for saying nasty stuff in order to score points with people who are looking for a reason to be angry about something, and he should be regarded accordingly.]

Now, if you heard or read Zelensky’s address to Congress, he gushed with thanks to the American people and showed plenty of respect:

Dear Americans, in all states, cities and communities, all those who value freedom and justice, who cherish it as strongly as we Ukrainians in our cities, in each and every family, I hope my words of respect and gratitude resonate in each American heart. . . .

Americans gained this victory, and that’s why you have succeeded in uniting the global community to protect freedom and international law. Europeans gained this victory, and that’s why Europe is now stronger and more independent than ever. The Russian tyranny has lost control over us. And it will never influence our minds again. . . .

Financial assistance is also critically important, and I would like to thank you, thank you very much, thank you for both financial packages you have already provided us with and the ones you may be willing to decide on. Your money is not charity. It’s an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way.

Going after President Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit while his country is in the midst of defending itself against Russia aggression is a waste of time and energy and accomplishes nothing other than make the complainers look petty and unserious.

That said, though, because Zelenskyy’s clothes are a hot topic of conversation, we’d be remiss if we didn’t take advantage of it. Or, rather, if we didn’t show you how “Fox Across America” host Jimmy Failla has taken advantage of it:

Don’t bag on Zelensky for showing up to the White House in a sweatshirt. Apparently a member of the Biden administration stole his luggage.

OK, see, we don’t care who you are. That’s hilarious.

Now that’s good

So good.

Can you not picture the airport security cam footage of Sam Brinton sneaking away with Zelenskyy’s suitcase???

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It’s funny because it could totally be true.

His wife could have snagged him the latest fashions in Paris last week.

Come to think of it, you’re right. He was wearing the same outfit that Fidel Castro used to always wear. Trying to impress the girls.

I offered to take him to the Men’s Warehouse, but he wanted to go to the Arms Bazaar.

Makes sense. Zelenskyy is looking poor, in order to ask for more money. His wife spent $40,000 on clothes? Good lord! They ain’t poor. Maybe Demonicrats gave it to them.

Well, he is bringing home a wife, and showing everyone that she has good taste in clothes. It kind of reminds of the old star kist commercials. Sorry Charlie. We don’t want tunas with good taste. We want tunas that taste good. 👍

A dark green T shirt or any T shirt is total trash.

Simple, and likely correct explanation for why the Greatest Freedom Fighter Ever™ (he’s fighting for all of us!!!) dressed down for the International World Class Grifters Association meeting: Actors wear costumes.

Yup. Apparently Time doesn't know how to spell(??):

/s

ICGAS how they spell FRAUD. Until they get that right, they could dress his name in a sweater for all I care. /s/s

>>I don’t care what he wore.<<

If he wore a tie with an expensive suit, he’d still be criticized.

Everybody is sure fixated on how he dressed. I could care less. I’ve known lots of losers and posers who dress very well...and for his style of dress to be the focus is pretty pathetic.

I clearly remember pics of Obama in the OVAL OFFICE with his feet up on the Resolute Desk & sitting in shirtsleeves.

WHO IS BEING DISRESPECTFUL????
