On April 26, President Donald Trump drew criticism after attending Pope Francis’ funeral in a bright blue suit—visibly standing out among a sea of black-clad dignitaries. While Melania Trump followed Vatican dress protocol in all black, Trump’s light blue tie and suit clashed with the formal expectations. The Vatican’s dress code for papal funerals asks men to wear dark suits, black ties, and white shirts—symbols of mourning and respect. Trump’s outfit quickly sparked backlash online, with users calling it “disrespectful” and accusing him of seeking attention. “This was not just a funeral. It was a transition of power,” one commenter suggested, interpreting the color choice as symbolic of sovereignty and rebirth. Others mocked the president, recalling his past criticism of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit to the White House. Interestingly, Trump wasn’t alone in deviating from full black—Prince William and Indian President Droupadi Murmu also wore dark blue, possibly reflecting their non-Catholic backgrounds. Trump is a non-denominational Christian. Whether a calculated move, a faith-based decision, or simply personal style, Trump once again became the center of attention—perhaps exactly as intended
