Doocy noted that Volodymyr Zelenskyy was criticized for not wearing a tie when he visited the White House, while Elon Musk got a pass.
Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy pushed a bizarre theory on Wednesday over whether Donald Trump was deliberately influencing Elon Musk’s wardrobe choices.
The Tesla mogul typically wears T-shirts in public, often with a suit jacket. However, he wore a suit when Trump spoke before a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night ― and that made Doocy curious.
Since Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was criticized for not wearing a tie when he met Trump and Vice President JD Vance on Friday at the White House, Doocy asked White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt if the Zelenskyy encounter might have scared Musk to dress up a little.
Doocy started by pointing out the seemingly double standard.
“We know that some officials here were miffed that Zelenskyy showed up last week without a suit for his meeting in the Oval Office. But Elon Musk never wears a suit,” Doocy noted.
Leavitt noted that the Tesla mogul did wear a suit to the speech, but Doocy continued to press her.
“So what is the dress code?” he asked.
Leavitt pointed out that Musk wore a suit to Trump’s speech to which Doocy asked if the dude behind DOGE was “spooked by Zelenskyy getting kicked out?”
Leavitt denied that theory, saying she was “just pointing out that [Musk] did wear a suit last night.”
Of course, people had thoughts on whether the question about Musk’s White House wardrobe was … “suitable.”
