'Clownish': Trump allies mocked for donning matching suits for court [View all]

They were dressing to impress an audience of one. Republicans flocked to a Lower Manhattan courthouse Tuesday as a show of solidarity with former President Donald Trump as he attends his criminal hush money trial, now in its fourth week.

North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, Florida Rep. Byron Donalds, former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, and Florida Rep. Cory Mills held a presser outside 100 Centre Street — all sporting dark blue suits, white collared shirts and red ties in a styled effort to pay their respects to the GOP's presumptive presidential nominee.

Isaiah Swift noticed the Trumpian uniform, writing: "All wearing the same tie. Interesting." "Another edition of ‘Who wants to be VP’ reaches an excruciating climax," read an X post by Jezzytgl.

@asphyxious2 was blunt about the obvious fashion statement, tweeting: "Is that the ‘stand in court with the criminal leader of our party’ standard uniform they are all wearing?" On MSNBC, Nicolle Wallace called the uniform "clownish." Former prosecutor Andrew Weissmann added it reminded him of mob cases.

Matching diapers would be been appropriate.
