A horde of trailer-park visigoths can sack the Capitol and Republicans say “what’s the big deal?” But let one guy show up in casual clothes and they lose their goddamn minds.

    Mf looks like a circus strongman with that tash. Not even sure they make suits that size.

      Dude is not hurting for cash. If he wanted it, he could go bespoke.

        Assuming he’s taking all the legal bribe money anyway… If our politicians were actually living off their salaries it’s actually pretty ruff to have somewhere to live at home and DC, while having a ton of cash to blow.

        That being said, they all have a bunch of legal bribery slush fund money that it’s completely fine for them to buy clothes with. The amount of shit they can call a campaign expense is astonishing…

          I have no idea what you’re going on about, but Fetterman was independently wealthy and a successful businessman before he ever ran for office.

      He actually brought that up. He would have to have custom tailored suits and he doesn’t want to spend that money. I don’t blame him.
