‘The Fetterman Rule’: Senate Cuts Dress Code Enforcement

While I am a big proponent in proper attire, let us not kid ourselves: Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg and most of the most influential people in the world have dropped the suits. So the world has moved on and suit and tie are not necessary to show respect for the "position you hold, or the occasion" and it does not "influence our conduct". It is no longer considered a "symbol of professionalism and respect".
But you know what has marred congress? Behaviour!
And while the left has a few disrespectful members, the behaviour of Trump, Boebert, MTG and their ilk should really make your blood boil. Talk about not maintaining a standard of order!!!
So you can chose to focus on the meaningless adherence to protocol or you can chose to focus on the root of the problem. And the problem ain't the tie.

PS Funny how all these suits as soon as they run for president walk around pretending to be simple folk in jeans and a t-shirt.

 

I never said that the clothes make them capable or incapable- but the dress code affects the state of mind, and that does affect the awareness of the professionalism needed.
Bezos and Musk are bosses; they give orders- they may ask an employee for their views, but they don't negotiate compromises with their employees. And while "The world has moved on".... look at the results and tell me if you things are now better, or worse. What we do today that we think doesn't matter- shapes tomorrow

You are right to say behavior has marred Congress, and that behavior is- a violation of the codes. Ethics, legal, decorum. Happening everyday, without consequence.
When the rules aren't enforced in any situation, there are no rules- only cosmetics. When honor is abandoned, chaos takes over.

If I told you a group I'm part of is going to fix that, you would think that a fantasy.
Watch and see- it's coming soon now. We've been working on it for over a decade- and it turns out to be far simpler than you could imagine. No politics, no partisan position- no way to reject the idea.... and everything changes. We will be calling on every citizen to help.

 

Nope, the election of completely unqualified, narcissistic moron is what divided the country.
The doubling down on said unqualified, narcissistic moron has made it worse.
And mouth diarrhea coming out of said unqualified, narcissistic moron has just added to the divide.

Until the GOP decides to rid itself of the U, N, M (and his clones within the GOP) then things are just going to get worse.

 

Says the man who has no comment about the worst president in history, who is corrupt, demented and fits about every disgusting label you might apply... And it's not Trump, it's cornpop.

You like that??

 

The title says it all.

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin to issue bipartisan resolution to reinstate dress code

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., is preparing to issue a bipartisan resolution next week that would reinstitute the Senate’s dress code, after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., relaxed the rules last weekend.

The resolution would revert the dress code back to requiring senators to don coats, ties or business attire while on the Senate floor.

False. Trump was a better president than any modern day dem. His personality faults are far more prevalent in dems like Brandon and aoc. The ledt just refuses to see that.

The fact is the left lost and reacted by refusing to accept defeat and then spent years pushing hate, and continue to do so.

The division, is leftist driven.

 

I don't care about your opinion, so there's nothing to like or not like.

You have shown, in repeated posts, that your agenda is to support the right, no matter how bad, unethical, or downright illegal the behavior.

 

You realize you could take your same comment and switch out the word right for the word left and it would apply to you as well?

 

The big difference, of course, is that Trump has been indicted. The charges have been made public and we know what he is being accused of.

So far all the claims against Biden are just that, claims. There has been no actual evidence presented. Items that the RW points to as evidence are lacking (to say the least).

Senator Menedez has been indicted on bribery charges. The evidence seems overwhelming and based on that I think he needs to resign. If he's convicted (which I believe he will be) he needs to serve time in prison. I'm not a knee jerk defender of the left. I call it as I see it. Trump defenders will not do that. Everything is a "witch hunt", he's not guilty of anything, it's all trumped up.

I started a thread to discuss the charges out of Florida, specifically the 31 charges of Trump violating 18 USC 793(e). Guess how many Trump defenders have rushed to discuss the law and how it applies to Trump? Zero. Every defender of Trump just wants to use catch phrases and accusations of corruption. No one, it appears, wants to discuss the actual law.

 

Very true. Unfortunate.

 

Indictments are not evidence. You March lock step with the lefts claims. The projection is astounding lol.

Chuck admitted years ago the witch hunt was beginning when Trump was president elect.

The lefts fascism is astounding. Supporting such nonsense.

 

Wrong.
My agenda is to support America- and the good of everyone in it. WITHOUT it being plundered by the corrupt, overwhelmed with BS distraction issues and fed endless propaganda by the people who have no idea what a moral compass is. You rag on the right on the basis of polarity, not fact. While neither side will ever be perfect because they are both made up of people- the fact is that the moral code of the right is vastly more beneficial to the future of the nation than that of the left.

The fact the other side has a couple warts doesn't negate that the other has more warts than skin. That's your problem- you want to ignore or forgive the transgressions of the people you support, lest they reflect on your judgment.... but you are eager to trash others for far less, and deny the reality of that.

I support GOOD people, not those who prey on others. The party doesn't make people one way or the other- but the people who flock together to make those parties give the party it's image.
If you can't be equally honest about the faults and flaws- you are lying to yourself.

 

He better hope like hell no one like you is on the jury, because you've already pronounced him guilty

 

The Post tried eating at NYC’s finest restaurants dressed like Sen. John Fetterman — see how it went

Sen. John Fetterman may be allowed to dress like a slob in the halls of power — but it’s still a capital offense in New York City’s finest restaurants.

Intrepid Post reporter Jon Levine learned that hard truth this week when he crisscrossed the Big Apple’s culinary landmarks wearing Fetterman’s trademark hoodie, gym shorts and sneakers and tried to gain entry — only to face scorn and mockery from maître d’s with more common sense than Congress.

“He would not be permitted here,” sniffed a maître d at Daniel on the Upper East Side, where a seven-course tasting menu runs $275.

I do not ignore the "warts" of the people I support. I believe Clinton should have been removed from office over the Lewinsky affair. Blagojevich should have gone to prison (It was Trump that let him out). Hell, I never voted for a Democrat for President until 2020 and I started by voting for Reagan in 1980.

Right now we have a party that is genuflecting to one man. Not a set of principals, not any lofty ideas...one man. And it is one man that has shown over and over and over and OVER that he is the most unqualified man we have ever bestowed the honor of President on.

We have a party that once ran on the slogan, "Character Matters" that now, for the most part, supports a man that lacks ANY character.

And until that party decides that it needs to excise this cancer from it's midst it has left me no choice but to support the other party. Do I agree with every stance the Democrats have? No. But no matter what the Democrats put forth as policy it's going to be better than the ego of a narcissistic, incompetent, moron by the name of Donald Trump.

 

He better hope that they can get one MAGA head on the jury who is willing to ignore every fact in order to acquit.

 

All I can say- is your judgment of character is possibly the worst I've seen.

 

Here’s an honest question for the board. We all know strokes can cause damage which often impact a person’s ability to make full use on one’s body. So my question is has anyone seen any signs that Fetterman is damaged to the point where he can’t dress himself? For the most part, the videos I’ve seen show his mental state having issues but not his physical state. If he can’t dress himself, then how does he eat, go to the bathroom or take a shower?

 

They seem to be determined to make Congress a refuge for the aged and disabled, so they will probably soon be creating a special service of people to provide such personal services as wiping, dressing, reminding them who they are and where they are as needed. Being handicapped isn't the same as disabled. Handicapped people can function fine disabled means something else, as in needing a keeper.
Doesn't seem like that's a good way to navigate a nations path.

 

How does Fetterman shave?

 

So the Senate just unanimously voted to implement a dress code that requires business attire while on the Senate floor.
