Kudos to TreVeyon Henderson for low-key trolling the Republicans by being a black man in a tan suit. No way that was an unintentional choice.

? How is that trolling?

Seems like doing a PR op for them, or am I too European to understand?

It was a huge controversy for conservatives when Obama wore a tan colored suit.

Obama wore a tan suit once.

Republicans went apeshit due to this fashion choice.

I remember Obama ate dijon mustard once too. Media firestorm.

Those were simpler days.
