Schumer Ditches Senate Dress Code to Accommodate Slob Fetterman
Gateway Pundit ^ | 9/17/23 | Kristinn Taylor

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has ditched the Senate dress code to accommodate man-child Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) who prefers to dress like a teenage slob rather than a grown man in the ‘world’s greatest deliberative body.’ The dress code of coats and ties for men and business attire for women will still apply to staff in the chamber.

Even before his debilitating stroke last year, Fetterman preferred to wear a hoodie and gym shorts as Pennsylvania’s lieutenant governor and while campaigning. After his treatment for depression earlier this year, Fetterman has continued dressing like a slob when at work in the Senate complex except for appearances at committee meetings and floor debates where he has worn suits. When voting on the floor, Fetterman sometimes votes from just outside the chamber while casually dressed, leaning in a doorway and flashing a thumbs up or down, a practice that other senators do on occasion.

A casually dressed Fetterman was recently seen in a Senate office building emoting like a stoner school boy when asked about House Republicans opening an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.

Fox News reporter Chad Pergram confirmed the Axios report, “Fox confirms that the Senate will no longer enforce a dress code for senators. Senators can now what ever they want. However, others entering the chamber must comply with the dress code. Coats/ties for men. Business attire for women.”

He gets paid $174,000 a year plus benefits that most Americans only dream of for doing who knows what. Fester should be able to wear a suit and tie.

I don’t think he is brain damaged. I think he is dumb as a sack of hammers. He is controlled by somebody, just like Biden. Lights on, nobody home.

Everyone in Congress is controlled by someone.

Democrats vote as a bloc, and only one or two in the Senate and a handful in the House break with their orders.

Congressional offices could run on their own. The staffers know what they want to do.

Dressing up, or in Fetterman’s case being dressed up by somebody else, helps senators remember where they are. Without that, Fetterman will behave even worse.

I'm waiting for the Bee's article that the House is dropping dress codes to accommodate Boebert.

Mitch though is always well-dressed, unlike Senator “Uncle Fester” Fetterman.

Pennsylvania voters are scumbags who voted for a scumbag.

They also elected a dead man to the state senate, so it was a no-brainer to elect Uncle Fester.

There is a lot of psychology to recovering from a serious illness including mental aspects such as depression.

I wish him well. In that case, he is no longer able to serve his constituents as the Senator of Pennsylvania so he needs to resign. He needs to go back home and get better.

Fetterman had a serious stroke. I had what’s called an, “invisible stroke”; you’re hardly symptomatic, and you don’t realize you’ve had one until you have an MRI.

Now I occasionally trip over my words, I constantly drop things, and sometimes my lefs want to drop out from beneath me. Other than that, I appear fine, but when it’s bad, it’s noticeable.

I think there’s proper brain damage. If he’s an idiot, which I believe he is, he can’t fake it that accurately.

Fetterman thinks his slob clothes make him young and with it.
