What do you think? Let the 'QAnon Shaman' appear in full regalia?

He is the foremost freakshow face of the insurrection. Let the GOP Senators take in exactly what sort of people they are siding with.



Full regalia? Why yes - religion über alles.

Isn't he still detained? I remember that his mother said he couldn't eat because the food was not organic.

He left a note behind in the chambers threatening Pence.

Without his formal ensemble, he ain't much to look at. The orange jumpsuit would ruin the effect totally. Why do that to the world's editorial cartoonists?!

That is my guess.
Probably a lengthy process to show chain of custody for the Senate trial against Trump and then again for the court trial against the alleged shaman.
Could be done but it would be a lot easier to show a picture of him in all his regalia and have him as a witness testify that it is him. Then the photo could be projected and kept up while he testified. That could be an effective reminder of who this guy is.

Distinctly embellished costumes with numerous special accoutrements documents how individuals gain prominence over their tribe.

Nothing says "stable genius" like a big red necktie.
