I was disappointed when the "casual Fridays" trend started

There is this thing called Professionalism. Some jobs are more than a task. They have a higher moral calling. Doctor, soldier, Senator. Having pride in being a Professional is enhanced by dressing nicely for the part, which in turn reminds the self to live up to the higher standard.

Dressing for the position is far more than projecting an image outward, though it certainly does project the person's level of professionalism.

Every single Republican should show up in baggy gym shorts and a hoodie from now on. Betcha Schmucky Chucky changes that policy REAL quick.

Republicans should dress in the traditional conservative mode and sneer at the lowlife trash like Fetterman who probably dresses the way he did in the mental hospital he entered right after he won the election.

I agree. Just like this, all of them.

I once worked at a place like that twenty some years ago. Made accommodations and concessions not because this person had a physical or psychological issue but because management decided it would be a feather in their cap to “give this young guy (Caucasian hoot rat) a chance at life.”

Everybody else made allowances, I ignored him until the day he got in my face over something I had no involvement in nor was I in a management position and had no way to do anything about the problem. Minor thing, sent to the wrong business for a part pickup and it was all my fault because I handed him the purchase order that someone else had generated.

In summary, my supervisor told me is so many words take it or leave and if I stayed I’d be getting a write up. I told my manager “Sure, but let’s go see the owner first and get his take on it.”

Well, manager backed off, no write up for me, I stayed, the rat was immediately moved to another department.

I see this as along the lines of statues being toppled. Destruction of convention and tradition (history). I'm not sure what Fetterman brings to anyone's table other than rattling cages and a reliable vote.

Senator Incitatus (D-Pa) seems to be enjoying himself making a mockery of the Senate. "Jagoffs." That's cute. Caligula would be proud.

“If those jagoffs in the House stop trying to shut our government down, and fully support Ukraine, then I will save democracy by wearing a suit on the Senate floor next week,” Fetterman (D-Pa.) posted on X.

There's no way Senator Vegetable is actually posting on Twitter, that's got to be one of his many handlers.

Maybe that’s actually his. It does match his lefty tantrum I’ll only conform if I get what I want style.

My biggest conundrum is trying to decide who is the most utterly despicable waste of space in the Senate—there are so many prime choices. Most, but not all, are Democrats.

Now he’s crying about being “bullied”.

The senate members have been figuratively been wearing clown suits and shoes for decades why not get rid of the dress code so they can all look like hoodlums that they are.

What I want to know is WHY he is unable/incapable of wearing business attire? Is he not able to put on anything else without someone helping?

Most likely. I’ve also heard theories that the baggy clothes are used to hide medical devices related to his massive stroke.

Because he's a slob. He embodies the lazy and slothful attitude that infects society.
As another poster pointed-out, kids are going to school these days in PJ bottoms, slippers and gyms clothes, not because they're making a statement but, because they're Lazy AF. Their parents enable this or, are unserious about their role as parent, dismissing it as 'their choice' or, throwing up their hands 'I've told them repeatedly but, they don't listen, what can I do?'. Fetterman is THAT parent.

It's just one more step towards the movie Idiocracy becoming reality. I've told people it's a documentary not a comedy, and these freaks in Congress keep proving me right.

I don’t think he’s capable of much right now without a handler doing it for him, but he’s always worn this sloppy looking crap as part of his act. He plays a “man of the people” or an “Everyman” type but the reality is he came from a wealthy family and lived off a trust fund his entire life and never worked a regular job.

When he did wear a suit on a few rare occasions like during his debate with Oz, people noted that he had a huge lump on the back of his neck that may have been something stroke related and those hoodies conveniently hide that.
