The Most Heinous Looks at Trump’s State of the Union Address

The State of the Union is Donald Trump’s big night as he updates the nation on his second presidential term and boasts of his apparent victories, and some of politics’ biggest names turned up, and turned out.

While suits and ties were the theme for Trump’s lengthy speech, some fashion choices were certainly not making America great again.

Ivanka Trump

The president’s 44-year-old daughter has a history for hitting up A-list designers for her previous SOTU looks. While the rest of the Trump ladies opted for suits, Ivanka decided to channel the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz.

Mike Johnson

The speaker of the house, 54, made a choice tonight: beige. His oatmeal-colored tie at least matches his gavel. It also matches the color of the makeup President Trump has once again smeared all over his pesky, bruised right hand.

Thomas Massie

The rogue Republican is giving us 70s flashbacks with his shiny blue tie, which should really pop on camera if they cut to the 55-year-old during Trump’s rambling speech.

Donald Trump Jr.

Luckily, the President’s oldest son, 48, quickly switched from the chinos-and-sneakers outfit spotted on social media before kickoff. But didn’t Eric, 42, and Jared Kushner, 45, loop in 19-year-old Barron on the red tie memo to match the president? If Donald Snr. talks for as long as he had threatened, Donald Jr. may regret slipping out of his comfortable pants.

Scott Perry

There’s a lot going on with the Republican Representative from Pennsylvania’s get-up tonight. With the 63-year-old’s blue blazer and black vest combination, it’s no wonder his tie looks like it’s trying to escape out the top, and is that a napkin trying to jettison itself out the bottom? Andy Biggs is getting in one of the first yawns of the night next to him. Cannot blame him.

Pam Bondi

With her beige trench coat, is it the Attorney General or Inspector Gadget? Will the 60-year-old go-go release some more Epstein files?

Troy Nehls

The Texan Republican, 57, who you may not recognize without a cigar in his hand, decides to really suck up to his boss with a tie so tacky it is surely for sale on Donald Trump’s own site.

Kristi Noem

The last time ICE Barbie, 54, wore this much black she was in mourning for her puppy Cricket.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Even ties need to adhere to the 72-year-old’s beloved Make America Healthy Again slim-down regime.
