Sen. John Fetterman arrives in a hoodie and shorts to Trump’s inauguration

Shocker.

Sen. John Fetterman arrived at the Capitol for President-elect Donald Trump’s Inauguration in a black hoodie, gray shorts and sneakers — staying true to his traditional fashion style, despite the freezing temp.

Everyone else has arrived in formal attire.

As dignitaries filed into the Capitol Rotunda, the freshman senator from Pennsylvania was spotted luxuriating in the front row of the audience, legs comfortably outstretched.

Fetterman met with Trump last week at Mar-a-Lago and has signaled openness to supporting a number of his administration staffing picks.

Fetterman has donned a proper suit in the past, including when presiding over the Senate for votes, in keeping with the upper chamber’s policies.

He’s also been seen wearing his tuxedo hoodie in the past, including at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner last year.
