Tweets Taunt Trump for Allegedly Wanting Female WH Staffers to ‘Dress Like a Woman’ at Work

Social media is buzzing with posts from those upset over an unconfirmed report from an anonymous source who once worked with President Donald Trump, who allegedly told the media that Trump wants his female staffers to “dress like a woman” while they’re at work.

The outlet Axios released the report on Thursday, which mentioned the president’s presentation preferences for both male and female White House staff.

“If you’re going to be a public person for him, whether it’s a lawyer or representing him in meetings, then you need to have a certain look. That look—at least for any male—you have to be sharply dressed,” the source stated. “You should have a good physical demeanor, good stature, hair well groomed.”

And Trump prefers that female staffers “dress like women,” a source “who worked on Trump’s campaign” said.

“Even if you’re in jeans, you need to look neat and orderly,” they stated of the ladies.

The report set off a firestorm on social media with both men and women posting photos of various women in everything from military fatigues to space suits to hospital scrubs, criticizing the president’s remarks as being “sexist”—and as if applying to all women everywhere.

“Director/producer/writer/academy award winner in her office with a view. I’ll dress how I [expletive] well please, thank you very much. #dresslikeawoman,” Brie Larson wrote, posting a photo of herself in a t-shirt and leggings.
