Obama definitely wore it best
That’s really a great looking suit
The audacity that man has to walk around looking so dapper
Honestly?
I don’t like the suit, but he made it look good anyways.
I’m told the yoots call it rizz.
Personally I’d recommend a tie with more contrast. Maybe a deep green or navy blue. Or maybe a dark brown tie with a pattern of little tan suits on it!
To be fair, I wouldn’t want the President looking that good if I might have to be photographed next to him
“Allowing casual clothing on the Senate floor disrespects the institution we serve” Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., wrote in a letter signed by 45 other Republican senators.
Okay, but what about being a fucking traitor?
They hate that Fetterman looks and dresses like the people he serves. Working class laboring Americans.
And I hate that we pay these goddamn worthless traitor parasites. We should treat them as the filth they are. I cannot wish enough ill upon republicans.
If we didn’t pay our legislators, the only people who would ever be able to run would be the wealthy and children of the wealthy.
They’re fucking traitors. Treat them as such. Pay the ones who aren’t attempting to install a goddamn dictator.

It’s really damn simple. It’s because they don’t care.
The hypocrisy is the point.
Everything they do is “do as I say, not as I do”.
It’s about control and power. Not about values.
They have no actual values.
There is only one party that cares about hypocrisy.
And it ain’t the fucking republicans.
A pointing out the hypocrisy is moot, they will just move the goalpost further down field. Rules for thee, not for me.
It’s about control and power. Not about values.
True. But it’s also about the social/class/wealth/gender hierarchies that they defend and believe deeply in. When you’re higher on the hierarchy than someone, that makes them your inferior and it subjects them to scrutiny and authority to which you are (insofar as the hierarchy is real) immune.
So, when they howl for the little people to abide by rules that don’t apply to them they’re not overlooking that part, they’re flexing about ranking higher and being immune to that rule themselves. For people that believe in that, being flexed on in this way is a ‘put you in your place’ experience, it’s an exercise in dominating or shaming someone that has failed to know his place.
It might be better to stop calling it hypocrisy, and to start calling it entitlement and arrogance.
Have any Republicans said a thing about Boebert giving her boyfriend an over-the-pants handy in public yet?
Nope, family values
That family’s name: The Aristocrats!
No one cares. Rightfully so. Only terminally online people are malding about either of these situations right now
I would think the “what about the children?!” party would care about a woman getting her breasts fondled and rubbing a man’s penis around a bunch of children.
I didn’t see any kids around in the video. But yeah it’s a trashy thing to do but I’m not going to spend time caring about it. She’s an attention whore and it seems like people love giving her attention.
It’s a Beetlejuice musical. Of course there are kids.
I mean I didn’t see any kids in the video, but sure I’m against sexual activity in public nonetheless. But I’m not going to pretend to care that much in this instance.
An interesting take. It seems that plenty of people in congress care about at least one of them… Can you guess which?
Like I said, only terminally online people care about either.
Sorry, my public sexual indecency in the presence of minors, a felony, isn’t as shocking as a hoodie.
I would not be shocked if this were a real Boebert quote.
I would because it uses the word “sorry”.
And it was obviously written by someone literate, so that excludes her, too.
Hoodie + Trust > Suit + Lies
As the limit of fucks I give about clothing at work approaches zero.
Clearly clothing is optional to her as well.
Hey now, she really knows the importance of putting on sheep’s clothing as a wolf.
How many trans people have been caught jerking off their partner while getting groped, vaping, and using inappropriate language in front of minors?
Never mind - we’d better genocide the queers just in case - to protect the children, you see. Boebert? Whatever do you mean?
There was this political party in Germany in the 1930s that insisted everyone dress sharp while they tried to systematically wipe out anyone not blonde hair and blue eyed… the name escapes me though…
That is seriously the logical conclusion if things progress like this. Republicans are operating on complete bad faith, all in the pursuit of power and getting their way.
And it’s all so obvious, and yet they still hold a lot of power in the US. That is seriously concerning. Or should be, at least.

It’s not that they can’t see their own hypocrisy it’s that they don’t care. To their base they see only the one side anyways so it doesn’t matter to them. When will we stop pretending that the GOP is going to change from facing their own hypocrisy.
I don’t think they care. They went after Obama’s tan suit, AOC’s dress and now Fetterman’s sweater.
Can’t be criticized for your outfit if you aren’t wearing one taps forehead

Republicans are fully aware of the absurdity of their hypocrisy
They just don’t care.
And more over, they find absolute delight in people on the opposite side from them getting in a huff about it.
It’s not even a case of ‘republicans believe themselvea the only real americans’ they act like they believe themselves the only real humans
Therein lies the true danger from these zealous traitors: they see outgroups as not human and will happily commit any number of atrocities against anyone they consider “other.”

Yes. It’s “not hypocrisy” when you’re consistent about believing rules are for your inferiors but not you, it’s a flex when you rub it in their faces that you are their superior.
That’s the hidden context behind the left-right divide; the right think it’s obvious that there’s a social/class/wealth/race hierarchy while the left seem to expect equal treatment like we all learned about in civics. When they go after Fetterman for failing to ‘respect the decorum of the institution’, they’re not arguing based on rules that apply equally to everybody, they’re flexing when they invoke rules that don’t apply to them.
The reason they love doing it so much is that ‘owning the libs’ reminds them that they’re superior while shaming or confounding them - even if it’s only so in their heads

They are not idiots, and they do see the hypocrisy. They deliberately use it to persuade the “hearts and minds” of their voter base. They distract the common conservative with false indignation about hoodies, tan suits and buttery mails.
Hanlon’s Razor applies here, but we mustn’t ignore the possibility of malice just because their actions seem stupid. With the undeniable history of conservative behavior we must clearly conclude that their intentions are malicious. Especially when the outcomes are so obviously malicious.
If they were merely stupid, their “mistakes” would result in progressive actions equally. They are not plodding onward toward a dystopian nightmare, they are plotting the “utopian” future where they are the ruling elite and the “huddled masses” serve them mindlessly.
Debating how hypocritical anybody in politics is being is a fool’s errand. It’s irrelevant and is not productive. Every single one of us exhibits forms of hypocrisy all the time.
How about we shift to a paradigm where everyone criticizes politicians based on how good or bad their policies are, including how they vote on bills?
