Dress code for everyone but Senators

Anything to avoid discussing the topic at hand..... the fact that Senators no longer have a dress code, but their staffers and every one else does.

How does Schumer defend this?

Who F cares? Are they aiding and abetting an insurrection? Let them dress how they want to. Fetterman has shown more respect for the constitution and the institution of the Senate than any of the Senators who didn't vote to convict Trump for 1/6. But please carry on with the faux pearl clutching. Maybe we can make Obama's mustard colored suit a thing again.

Why just Senators?
Why not staff as well?

Answer: Because this is solely for Fetterman. A rule change for one Senator because he refuses to follow the dress code.

Change it for staffers too.

Schumer didn't. Why not? Why ONLY Senators?

Seriously weird thing to get worked up about given all the real problems.

Just a morass of bottom feeding losers voters now are fine with. This country is rapidly devolving into a 3rd world S hole.

You must really be afraid of this guy.

In his defense, it's not that easy or affordable to shop for dress suits when you're 6'8 and built like Shrek. And unlike most of his other Senate counterparts he's not a multimillionaire who can afford closets full of custom tailored famous label suits.

Oh cry me a river. Dude now makes almost $180,000 or whatever. He can afford 2-3 suit jackets, some pants, and some shirts.

But that's not how he dresses. It's not how he dressed on the campaign trail, when the people of Pennsylvania voted him into office, either. This isn't some bait and switch - this is who he is.

I don't give a crap how he dressed on the campaign trail. He wasn't an elected official with a JOB on Capitol Hill representing the country. You cannot do whatever you feel like at your job. There are standards for conduct and personal appearance. The fact that Schumer is lowering the standards for clowns like Fettermans is absolutely pathetic.

You think Fettermans is the first progressive and champion of the working class man ever elected into office? Oh please. Bernie wears suits. Even super progressives and white knights for the middle class like Estes Kefauver went to work in a suit and not jeans and a flannel shirt.

This is a pathetic decline in the standards for civility and personal conduct in the United States.

Sorry not sorry your shitty grifting carpetbagger didn’t win.

And I bet if you talk to all those guys sitting in midwestern diners who apparently have been ruling our politics since 2015, they’re OK with this.

Hohmann is an elistist from Stanford, I thought Republicans hated those types.

I am still a Fetter-head. I like the cut of his jib.

Oh please, Fetterman is the biggest offender in Congress and is the one pushing for rules to allow him to look like a bum:

Democrats are literally turning Congress into Idiocracy.

Imagine caring at all what people wear in Congress as if it affects their ability to do their jobs in any way whatsoever.

Oh please. Why have any standards at all. Doctors should just roll into meeting their patients with basketball jersies and sandals. Let's just keep degrading our standards and let people do whatever they want rather than demand more of our representatives of our country and holding them to higher standards with their appearance. How about military personnel wear whatever they want next. Wearing a uniform vs basketball shorts shouldn't matter for pulling a gun trigger too.

You are a slovenly, lazy bum.

Please explain to me how wearing a basketball jersey and sandals will affect a doctor's ability to do their job.

The military has specific clothing because it provides a measurable benefit (you know, the whole "camouflage" thing...) but there is absolutely no performance benefit given to a Senator by wearing a suit.

Please explain why we need any clothes at all. Maybe we should all work nude! Being nude shouldn’t impact a senator or a doctor too either, right?

If they want to work nude they should be able to. There's nothing inherently bad, wrong, or sexual about nudity - we're all born nude and uncaring, it's literally as natural as it gets. The only reason people like you get upset about nudity is because of the societal influence of religion, which has zero basis in fact or reality and is completely invalid.

People could and should hang dong and jam clam all they want in the Senate chambers as far as I'm concerned.

They should be able to smoke weed while they're at work too!

I'm sure plenty do.

If you think Members aren't doing their jobs on substances already you're kidding yourself. How many votes have happened after some number of Senators had 3 martini lunches? (I'll give you a hint, it's all of them.)

Yeah, um, you may recall that we rebelled against the monarchy. Now, it's just a sad state-sponsored celebrity thing with no actual power. Try again.

Why does everyone care about this when the GOP can't get their act together to actually find the country?

Slob privilege. Yep! It's why Zuck can do whatever he wants in a hoodie.

But it's also his brand, and good for him for knowing what works for his life and his image. The fact no one can shut up about his shorts - and that he always, always has a good response - is part of his whole thing. I think it works.
