Senator John Fetterman giving a speech with Biden and he is once again wearing a hoodie and shorts. I am glad Fetterman won his race. But what is he trying to prove dressing this way?

Some say how Fetterman dresses is irrelevant.. It's his policies that matter. True but there is such a thing as respecting the office by dressing professionally. And how one dresses is the kind of thing many voters will take into consideration when he runs for reelection.

@KathyV Interesting...Obama got roasted for wearing a tan suit. Was this disrespectful to the office? Or women not allowed to wear pants suits or to cover their arms in halls of Congress by GOP?

@Victor there is a difference between a tan suit and a Senator wearing shorts and a hoodie when one is a US Senator.

@KathyV Yes, there are stereotypical differences:
1. Suit: money, educated, professional, trustful
2. Hoodie: hoodlum, poor, up-to-no-good, illiterate, low life, liar
To say that someone is not dressed for the occasion does not translate into a person that lacks empathy, decorum, respect. Aloof, perhaps, Do they care what someone thinks about how they dress? Maybe not.

@KathyV Which brings me to wearing "Sunday Best" to church and how people used to dress up just to fly in an airplane. It's been well over 45+ years since I attended church-left for various reasons, but the mentality has changed dramatically in both instances. So much so, that old folks are resistant to change and cringe at these insufferable miscreants.
