Pence n Boris use their ties to signal allegiance to Trump over populisim or people

This isn't done for Fashion sense. I mean - Pence's tie is so long, it seems to have gotten tucked into his pants, or perhaps caught in his flies zipper, and Boris's Tie falls (while seated) far below his crotch. Why? It isn't popular fashion, hell it doesn't look anything but sloppy. But it models the only other public figure (from whom both curry favor) who wears signature - ridiculously long - ties.

I called in my feedback, saying that whether he was signaling his SHITLER support or not, it looked lousey. No response of course, and he continued it for a time. When I last looked in a month or so ago, he no longer had it visible outside of the jacket.

I think only the most die harders are still wearing this awful look. That - and sycophants like Trump and Boris. And in Boris's case I don't know that he is a sycophant, but he really, really needs to create a trade deal with the US as proof that Brexit will be a good thing. Suppressing laughter while typing that, as he thinks Trump gives a damn about spending time on creating a deal with the UK - let alone one that will be good for the UK.
