It’s no coincidence she flexes her right arm for the camera to show off her gym muscles. The whole sleeveless shirt and tight pants outfit is to expose her workout addiction. Pathetic.

Wed Apr 17, 2024, 06:20 PM
Apr 17

I particularly see a slight out turn of her right foot and think I see the same with the bomber, although maybe I want to see it. But I did realize that at one point the bomber sat down on a bench in a park and pulled out a cell phone. I am sure the FBI has geo-located the numbers from that time. Could they actually know who it is? They certainly found the rioters that way.

Think. Again.

There used to be a dress code for both the House and Senate, and it was the MAGA-GOP that broke it. Nonetheless it was the GOP that tried to make a stink over Jamie Raskin’s head-coverings when he had chemotherapy, and over Ilhan Omar’s hijab.

MTG really does look like she’s taking a quick jaunt to the corner store for a pack of cigs and a quart of milk.

As for characterizing her, I call her the She-Thug for her bullying ways.

That being said I don’t even like my husband to go to the grocery with those knit shorts on. Accidents happen!😁🤣. All of this being said Fetterman makes his statement because he has high regard for what the institution should be focused on. MTG is like a bad cat that $#it’s everywhere but the litter box. 💗

She was dressed for walmart shopping. She was supposedly delivering a very serious message from Congress, not bothering to actually present herself to actually be taken seriously, plus, notice her phone in her hand. Nothing about this show was serious, or worthy of even dressing the part for her. She's a goon.

I've always felt like there was a weird quasi-magic aspect to formal attire. That somehow it conveys more respectability. If that's the case then sure, putting her in more formal clothing might be useful for her professionally. Honestly though, I've known real idiots who dress very nicely, so I don't think it actually increases ones ability. It's just camouflage.

Wed Apr 17, 2024, 09:09 PM

in my early days the law firms had dress codes (for men & women) - and she would not have made it with this. But by the time I left the city sleeveless dresses & no panty hose were perfectly fine. Although in the A/C in the summer months you'd probably want a sweater or blazer anyway.

I can't get on-board with beating her up over wardrobe - but at least on DU we make fun of the men too so I guess it's equivalent.

There are plenty of other problems with her though ... starting with the lack of brain and inability to keep her mouth shut.
