The entire republican side should show up in their jammies.

Senate Unanimously Votes to Restore Dress Code in Humiliating Rebuke to Chuck Schumer and Slob Fetterman

By Kristinn Taylor
Sep. 27, 2023 8:20 pm

The Senate voted unanimously to restore the dress code for men Wednesday evening in a humiliating rebuke to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) who unilaterally dropped the unwritten but traditional dress code to accommodate the arrested development obsession of Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) to dress like a teenage pothead.

The resolution was introduced by Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and co-sponsored by Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), and includes a provision mandating a two-thirds vote to make any changes–a slap at Schumer. The dress code will be enforced by the Senate Sergeant at Arms.

The blowback against Schumer and Fetterman lowering the standards of the Senate was such that Schumer brought the resolution to the floor and both voted for the resolution.

C-SPAN’s Craig Caplan posted about the resolution being brought to the floor for a vote:

“Schumer now on Senate floor addressing the Senate dress code…Schumer supporting Machin-Romney Senate dress code resolution: “Though we’ve never had an official dress code, the events over the past week have made us all feel as though formalizing one is the right path forward.”…Schumer on Senate dress code resolution: “I deeply appreciate Senator Fetterman working with me to come to an agreement that we all find acceptable.”

“Manchin on his resolution with Romney codifying a Senate dress code for Senate Sergant At Arms to enforce: “Just after a week ago, we learned there were not in fact any written rules about the Senators, and what they could and could not wear on the floor.”…Romney on his resolution with Manchin on the Senate dress code: “We want those who serve inside this room in this hall to show a level of dignity and respect, which is consistant with the sacrifice they made and with the beauty of the surroundings.”

“Senate passed the Manchin-Romney resolution offered by Schumer clarifying the dress code for the floor of the Senate (S. Res. 376) by unanimous consent.”

Earlier Wednesday Fetterman told a Democrat caucus meeting he would start wearing a suit on the Senate floor. The resolution only covers the Senate floor, leaving Fetterman free to wear his shorts and hoodies to committee hearings and all senators to continue their pratice of voting from the doorway of the cloak room when casually dressed.

After the vote Fetterman responded online with a snark meme photo of actor Kevin James.


Text of Manchin’s resolution:

Haha, that's beautiful! It's great that Schumer pulled this shit to protect the Senate slob, because now, attention has been focused on Fetterman's sloth and flaunting of tradition, and if there is justice in this matter, Fetterman will be under great pressure to do the right thing and to stop dressing like a high schooler on the way to gym class, because what was formerly merely a matter of tradition has been codified. That's beautiful. I love it. Smile

Hey, Fetterman! A coat, a tie and long pants, you lazy, disrespectful asshole!

I saw a video of an interview with SlobbermanFetterman. He appears to be using a speech to text app on his phone. He started responding immediately after the reporter finished a question. I don't know of any phone-based apps that work that fast.

He was responding to the questions about the issue of changes to the rules for attire. He was trying to deflect that there were more important things that the Senate needed to discuss rather than putting the rules back in place.

He’s using some sort of app to supposedly help with his “auditory processing” problems which they claim his brain is working fine but he may not hear everything asked correctly which I call bullshit on. The man has brain damage, plain and simple and it’s not getting any better like they said.

Guarantee you this guy is getting questions from the press in advance so he can have an answer ready.

I just love that he’s now on the defensive about this whole dress code debacle.

Good on the Senate for voting the dress code in.

Now they need to make that lazy POS Fetterman attend the Senate sessions in proper attire like a grown up, and cast his vote from the Senate floor instead of voting from the side entrance, or from the door to the Dem cloakroom, in his jammies & then leaving.

Its good, yes, and, pitiful that Fetterman created the situation whereby the senate needed to pass a dress code resolution. Fetterman is a doofus

Interesting that there wasn't a dress code it was just tradition, now it's set, Schumers actions paved the way for that trying to accommodate Fetterman

I think this was necessary. Meanwhile more than 10x the population of Wyoming has been allowed to enter our country and been dispersed from sea to shining sea. There’s about 3 good people in Washington.
