It feels like nowadays you can’t even eat a darned TACO without getting accused of “cultural appropriation.”
(I can. I’m half Mexican. BRING ON THE TACOS.)
Anyway… I remember Melania getting shouted at when she wore an asian-inspired dress in Asia…. and Ivanka getting shouted at when she wore an Indian-inspired dress in India.
Of course they did. Because both of these women are associated with Trump… and anything associated with Trump is automatically EEEEVIL!
But Trudeau?
Trudeau gets a pass because he’s an effeminate man-boy and the left LOVES him.
BRIIIIING ON THE CULTURAL COSTUMES!!!
Dressed head to toe in robes of gold, then red, then white – Justin Trudeau has certainly cut a distinctive figure during his first three days in India.
Indeed, the Canadian Prime Minister seems to have made a point of dressing like a local during his debut visit to the country as leader.
But he also has a history of donning traditional robes at home, especially to honor special dates in the Indian calendar.
He wears traditional robes at home?
Where are the people who think it’s RACIST for white people to do yoga on this one?

I’m not sure what’s going on here. Is this normal?
Turns out he’s SUPER in to it, you guys:
As far back as 2012, Trudeau attended the premiere of Midnight’s Children – based on the book about Indian independence written by Salman Rushdie – dressed in a white sherwani robe. Screening at the Toronto International Film Festival, Trudeau was only a member of parliament when he attended along with wife Sophie Gregoire, who opted for a navy blue halter gown.
Twice last year he also marked important dates in the Indian calendar while dressed for the occasion.
In August he stepped out wearing a kurta – which literally translates from its Persian origins as ‘a collarless shirt’ – in order to celebrate Indian Independence Day.
Then again in October he donned a dark black sherwani – a heavy, more formal robe usually worn over the top of a kurta – to mark Diwali.
But again… the cultural appropriation crowd is ok with this… because Trudeau.








And listen… I actually don’t give a RAT’S …. I’m just a little surprised (haha no I’m not.) at the double standard.
