First, he ruffled feathers with his oddly cheerful remark about looking forward to attending Pope Francis's funeral. Now, US President Donald Trump is once again under fire for his 'disrespectful behavior' at Pope Francis's funeral today on April 26, sparking online fury.
At the open-air funeral mass in St Peter’s Square, international leaders, cardinals, presidents and prime ministers gathered to pay their final respects to the leader of the Catholic Church. Trump along with his wife Melania was present too, seated in the front row, contrary to the rumours of them being pushed to the third row. Pope and Trump had sharply different views and the former often criticized him.
The first couple of America, paused as they passed Pope Francis's coffin and paid their respects. However, what didn't go unnoticed was Trump's peculiar outfit for the occasion, which did not align with what others were wearing. While everyone else including his wife First Lady Melania Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine were dressed in black, in line with Catholic customs, Trump stood out in a blue suit. Ironically, during his White House visit Zelenskyy was mocked for not wearing a suit and dressing inappropriately for the occasion. His 'inappropriate suit color' has managed to draw netizens' ire, with many feeling the American President's choice of outfit was disrespectful.
"He just can't get it right, can he? At the Pope's funeral, the front row has world leaders all appropriately in black. Trump?," a user wrote on X.
"He does not follow protocol....he makes his own rules," another wrote.
"His ignorance is astounding. Surely Melania should have corrected his blatant disregard for protocol," a comment read.
"Watching the funeral on BBC News. Trump is in a blue suit when everyone else is in black. No class."

The pic of the crowd shows Trump wasn't the only male wearing a blue suit. There were many.
However Zelensky is the ONLY male, except for ragheads, who isn't wearing a suit.
Proving once again, liberals are the biggest hypocrites on the face of the Earth.

Brandon met the pope. Crapped his pants. Disrespectful? Maybe.
Zelensky is wearing a suit... A leisure suit.
Marxists deserve only scorn.
The things some idiots care about…
Dark blue too.
Boy, these leftists are so desperate.
Navy blue or black suits are acceptable.
Marxist Pope funeral. Ehh.
Maybe now we’ll get another JPII… probably not.
I remember a time when a pope, a president, and a Prime Minister brought down an evil empire… Those were good days.

Trump is not Roman Catholic.
He gets to wear blue.
Besides, the ettiquette influencers say that blue is OK:
” Traditional Color Choices: Black is the most commonly accepted color for funerals, symbolizing mourning, while dark blue and gray can also be appropriate alternatives. “
“Blue often represents calmness, peace, and tranquility. Wearing a blue shirt may convey a sense of serenity during a time of mourning. While it’s not the traditional choice like black or gray, a subdued shade of blue can still be appropriate, especially in modern contexts. Softer hues like navy or slate blue integrate well into a funeral setting when paired thoughtfully with neutral elements.”
