In reply to the discussion: Manchin circulates proposal to reverse Schumer on dress code [View all]cayugafalls
(5,933 posts)35. This is America. Rather than doing the people's business, rethugs go after dress codes.
All while ignoring the Bimbert and the Filth in their own party.
As an aside, (stop reading if you trigger easy)
I wore regular business attire my whole life even though I preferred shorts and t.
I did not do it because I wanted to 'fit it' or 'go un-noticed' or 'blend in'...
I did it because at a very early stage of my career I learned that if I removed any 'visible triggers' when doing business dealings I could control the conversations and guide the meetings in a much more effective and efficient way.
Whether Congress has a dress code, I could care less. I am not in congress.
Senator Fetterman can dress as he pleases, this is America.

If Manchin is so worried about "tradition", then why isn't he wearing a powdered wig and leggings?

Nothing JF does or does not wear is nearly as offensive as manchin's turncoat behavior.

As a stroke victim, it may well be that Fetterman is left with problems dressing himself.
