Because the dress code is more important than keeping the government running, since it’s about keeping up appearances with MAQA Mufti

Ex Trump White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson reveals Trump almost never wore a mask during the pandemic because it would mess with his makeup: “When he looked at the straps of his mask, he saw they were covered in bronzer. He wasn’t happy about that. ‘Why did no one else tell me… pic.twitter.com/Smhy9djIYC

🚨Donald Trump didn’t want to be seen with severely wounded veterans while Commander-in-Chief. He expressed deep disgust with their physic appearances, preferring them to be excluded from public events and ostracized. @TheAtlantic , @JeffreyGoldberg https://t.co/SdidO8xDSP … pic.twitter.com/0rxLVkLO2U

We salute our founding fathers putting their lives on the line for drag queen story hour and you and Lindsey Graham fighting for it. We need more corporate tax cuts and deregulation and diversity.

Democrats put #PeopleOverPolitics and passed the inflation reduction act to reduce drug costs. What is GOP focused on? Banning abortions and shutting down government. And Republicans can’t even agree on the reason they want to shut down government and inflict unnecessary pain. https://t.co/ARfint5Wv9

Republicans don't just want to impeach the President. They want to defund the FBI and Department of Justice, remove their own Speaker from leadership, and shut down the government as well. Do you feel America is a safer, more secure place with Republicans in power?

You have to be insane to believe that after being forced to settle massive fraud cases related to his foundation and business as well as money laundering at his casino and getting elected with help from foreign interference trump was such a good president that roughly half the world (at least) conspired to release a bioweapon to kill millions of people to make him look bad and help them cheat to win an election he actually won and then conspired to make it look like he attacked the Capitol and then conspired to make it look like his company committed fraud and then conspired in four different states to charge him with 91 felonies.

Trump owns the House of Representatives! He controls the truly warped and demented wing of the Republican Party—Folks like Marge and Andy. And they’re gonna force a government shutdown to make Biden look bad and make things worse for everyone. Trump’s extorting your vote, America https://t.co/J6m8iL4Evv

“Government shutdown in t-minus 16 days. Instead of crying about how I dress, how about you get your shit together and do your job, bud?” John Fetterman to Matt Gaetz

John Fetterman’s Senate legacy is now set — he’s the guy who made it possible to dress like a slob.

What the Missouri Compromise was to Henry Clay, what the Second Reply to Hayne was to Daniel Webster, what the Civil Rights Act of 1957 was to Lyndon Johnson, Carhartt sweatshirts and baggy shorts will be to John Fetterman.

The Pennsylvania senator is the poster boy — if self-indulgent sloppiness is your thing — for his chamber dropping a dress code that required senators to dress in business attire when appearing on the Senate floor.

Fetterman briefly complied with the rule by making the sacrifice of putting on a suit and tie after he was first elected.

Then he reverted to his standard uniform that makes it look like he just arrived after sitting on his couch, surrounded by empty pizza boxes, watching football games all weekend.

There’s business casual, then there’s Fetterman’s garb.
