But, he still looks a bazillion times better than that dumpy Slobfather, with his ill-fitting suits and long, red dick ties. Joe doesn't need high heels and a girdle, either.

Is honorary ancestry good enough? I can drink like an Irishman, if that helps!

try to find one that looks good w suit.
make up a story about a grandparent who came on the boat if you're gonna wear an ugly green. a little blarney goes a long way.

The tie he wore with the tan suit really does look a lot better than that green thing Joe had on. But they both look wonderful in anything they wear, so who cares, really?

I'm just glad that we're back to tans suits being the big presidential scandal, as opposed to the massive corruption and treason we got with the guy who came in between them.

It's not just McConnell's suit that looks like it needs pressing.

It's also McConnell that looks kind of rumpled.

Like he needs pressing.

Fri Aug 6, 2021, 02:02 PM

is that the socks are considered an extension of the suit. Wear a close-match with the trousers. And I know Reagan was more than a little soft-headed, but for the love of the fashion gods, wear lace-up Oxfords. If you haven't mastered shoelaces, then you shouldn't be in public...

28. I can tie showlaces
Fri Aug 6, 2021, 04:43 PM
Aug 2021

but I also have deformed feet Without going into detail, if I tie the shoelaces tight enough so that the shoes don't slide around dangerously, they are excruciatingly painful.

Fortunately, I am a woman and don't have to wear laces for dressy.

I don't know much about women's fashion except I know what looks good on my wife. She's got, like a million pairs of shoes. My favorite is a pair that looks like they were meant to be worn by a sexy 1930's librarian.

Baby blue or pink suits?

Tie-dyed ties?

This surely is driving their most powerful think tanks crazy, trying to design a counter attack......
