"Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has axed the dress code that requires legislators to wear professional attire on the Senate floor months after Sen. John Fetterman was slammed for wearing a hoodie.
Schumer (D-NY) quietly directed the Senate’s sergeant at arms to stop enforcing the dress code that mandates male senators wear a jacket and tie and female senators a dress or other businesswear on the floor, Axios reported Sunday.
The change in policy comes after Fetterman (D-Pa.) was bashed by conservatives for wearing a hoodie, gym shorts and sneakers to the chamber. Many called his casual fashion choices disrespectful."
So, while senators can dress like this, their aids must still wear a suite and tie.
I wasn't kidding when I said he had a stroke BEFORE the election. He's not much better. Listen to him speak. I don't know if it's appropriate to mock him, because he does have real problems. I do think he should step down. But that goes for Biden too.
It's only a minute. It's painful to watch.
