Trump’s Distinctive Blue Suit Stands Out at Papal Funeral

President Trump demonstrated his characteristic independence in diplomatic style by choosing a blue suit for the pope’s funeral, diverging from the customary black worn by other attendees.

On Saturday, as global leaders gathered in St. Peter’s Square to honor Pope Francis, figures such as France’s President Emmanuel Macron, Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Argentina’s President Javier Milei, and Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni were all dressed in black.

In contrast, President Trump’s choice of a blue suit made him visually stand apart in the somber gathering.
