A horde of trailer-park visigoths can sack the Capitol and Republicans say “what’s the big deal?” But let one guy show up in casual clothes and they lose their goddamn minds.

And the harm would be exactly what?
It’s the same logic as school uniforms. Congressmen, you see, have the same miniscule attention spans and raging libidos as teenagers, and the only way to keep them focused for more than 30 seconds is to surround them with nothing but boring blue suits.
Seriously, I suspect it’s tradition-for-tradition’s-sake, no less surreal than powdered wigs. It’s interesting how aside from a waxing and waning of moustaches, there isn’t that dramatic of a change in looks between the portraits of Presidents and Congressmen from 1820 or 2020. I’d hope that by 2120, we have at least one fursuit Presidential portrait, along with a head-in-a-jar, and of course, the first Robot President, who was obsolete on day 1 because he had to wait til the age of 35 to get elected.
John Quincy Adding Machine. He struck a chord with the voters when he promised not to go on a killing spree.
Isn’t the point of school uniforms that everyone wears the same thing, there’s no little Jonny in his Walmart jeans getting teased by Tarquin in his Versace.
They’ll still tease because Tarquin can afford multiple uniforms and to have his staff dry clean them regularly and they won’t be worn down.
That’s the excuse they tend to use but kids are gonna find ways to bully each other no matter what. Making them all wear the same clothes isn’t gonna solve that.
It’s not going to solve it, but it’s one less thing for parents to need to worry about. Honestly wearing a school uniform/having kids who wear a school uniform is not something I’ve ever been too worried about.
How charming. No. It’s about control.
If I was a senator I’d be coming in wearing Elton John outfits all the time.
I hope you know, we all assume you’re definitely a fury now. I’m tagging you as a fury.
Why would he be a winged humanoid mythical creature?
Oh I definitely fancy a game of tag
