Pres. Donald Trump had his second State of the Union address earlier today. According to CNN, his speech was “surprisingly bipartisan and deeply divisive,” and he’s still blasting the Democrats for the border wall he isn’t getting.
On the other side, the women of the Democratic party all wore white. Rep. Brenda Lawrence, leader of the Democratic Women’s Working Group said, “Today we stand together wearing white in solidarity with the women of the suffrage movement who refused to take no for an answer. To an administration that has closed its eyes to women, we will be seen.”
What’s even more surprising is that presidential daughter, Tiffany Trump also wore white at the SOTU address. Her siblings and step-mom, Melania, all wore dark colors.

We don’t know if this is Tiffany throwing shade at her father or it’s just a coincidence. Funnily enough, Melania was the one who wore a white pantsuit at the SOTU address last year. This came after women of the Democratic Party wore white during Trump’s first address to Congress. This was also amid the Stormy Daniels exposé.
What do you think of the outfit choice, especially with the Trumps’ history of “statement” pieces?
