Folks don’t realize that the President, or BHO’s “Precedent” status, actually has an office just off the oval office. The oval office is ceremonial for official acts and visits etc . All the real work and meetings with “staff” are supposed to be accomplished in that working office.
Obamainista trash may as well duct tape a basketball hoop on the wall using the presidential seal as a backboard. He and his handlers are all about disrespect for the office...... were I told I was President of the US tomorrow I couldn’t steam clean and remodel that place enough to get the stench of sedition and disrespect out of it....
Just my opinion....

Chicago style politics in the Oval Office.
Not much of an improvement from the bubba administration.

I didn’t say or infer these were on White House property? I also noted the Palm trees. The discussion here was about the Oval Office, but I didn’t characterize your photos in a manner other than to allude to the shirts being a little loud. I merely asked a question.

As charter schools in inner cities require uniforms and dress codes for their students because there is a belief that there is a relationship between dress and behavior, shouldn't the new shining example actually be an example of something other than hypocrisy.

In other words he is an arrogant, self-absorbed, ignorant, America hating clod. Well, DUH!

You and I both Squantos. I’ve worn suit and tie to work. I don’t think it damaged me too much. You can always loosen your tie and collar too. It’s not that big a deal.
I wouldn’t have brought my dog in their like Ford did either.

I have no idea, I think he was a fan of the Hawaiian shirt and there a quite a few photos of him wearing them.
I doubt he ever wore one while working in the Oval Office.

I think objections to men sitting in the Oval Office in shirtsleeves are ridiculous. Who cares?
I know, even at 10:00 PM, Reagan wouldn’t set foot in the Oval Office without a jacket. Fine.
Personally, I would like to see the Supreme Court’s temple demolished, and let the Justices do their work in cubicles under fluorescent lights like everyone else. The same with Congress and the President.
They all need to be taken down about ten pegs.
