Fucking so predictable, America. This is why I can't take this country seriously.
Ridiculous.

(7,889 posts)I didn't even notice the suit. Keep at it guys, you're doing a (cough) terrific job in these very troubled times.
Awknid
(381 posts)I did not like that suit. Looked so beneath his dignity, I'm surprised they let him wear it. I don't know the whole story, but I've never seen him look tacky befor and was shocked. On the other hand, I'm glad he said what he did.

(1,685 posts)What you're using as a measuring stick. Don't like the suit does not mean it's tacky.
The combination of the wrong color for the president's completion and the fact that it was a bit too large made me think of an uncle of mine from the 70s who always looked tacky. He was an alcoholic and was never put together well. I suppose its personal for me and I shouldn't have said anything. But compared to the way the President usually looks, I thought it looked tacky. He usually is so well dressed!

(1,685 posts)People dying all over the world. Bad guys showing off everywhere. Should we commit lives and treasure here or there?
But, what's important?! The President's fucking suit.
Pathetic.

(69,721 posts)know some of the media commented on his suit.
Last week they whined that he did not wear a tie (Grethen from Fox news of course)--at his news conference.
I have to say, I did notice the light colored suit and how it blended with is now greying hair.
More importantly, you are right. this is probably one of the most toughest decisions he has to make. I am glad he in NOT hurrying the situation and will get the region involved.

(37,457 posts)well, maybe so, because he reportedly loathed the media and some of them loathed him. Our media has gone so far downhill. Fashion media now ?

However, I was more interested in what he had to say, which I also liked.
This country is becoming more shallow every day... to worry about the color of a perfectly appropriate suit is so lame.
