Senators Dressed as Rappers: The Left Is Up to Its Old Tricks -

The political class is working hard to undermine itself. Since clothes represent the respect we feel for the people around us, the only ones who should be allowed to attend the Senate with their asses hanging out are the voters.  

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  "Politicians work hard every day to make us lose respect for them. H.L. Mencken was a visionary, for it is truer now than when he said it: “Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey cage.” Nevertheless, they are public servants, whether they like it or not. They represent us; they represent our territories; they extend our will to the place where decisions are made (I’m not talking about the nightclubs in Washington, D.C.). Turning up at the Senate dressed as you would to go burning ATMs at a BLM rally is disrespectful. It’s ungainly too. But above all, it is disrespectful to the institution and what it stands for. Bending the Senate’s civility to the particularly bad taste of certain wayward senators is the best metaphor for why the West is going to hell.

"There is no longer a dress code in the U.S. Senate. Actually, there hasn’t been since a male senator was first allowed to dress like a woman on the job. And that was just the beginning. Look, predictably, a collective is growing around the world that claims to feel canine, and they demand their right to dress like dogs, bark, pee in the street, and chase kittens. We may well have six men dressed as dogs in the Senate soon. As far as the barking is concerned, I don’t think we will notice much difference from the majority of senators. But aside from that, now let’s say, officially, that the Senate’s usual and implicit formal etiquette has been abolished.

"I am already hearing the useful fools saying that this issue is unimportant, that what matters is inflation. Inflation is important — indeed, very important. But the loosening of dress codes in the Senate is a crucial issue because it culturally dismantles any reverence that we may have felt for the upper chamber since the Founding Fathers. And if we no longer respect the institution, we lay open the door to a lawless nation, which we will not respect either.". . .

" 'Fetterman’s stroke, ignorance, sloth and gym clothes show a contempt for the nation. He’s a wino without the wine. Democrats nevertheless stuffed the ballot to elect him. They should replace Schumer with him because Fetterman exemplifies today’s U.S. Senate.

" 'Now you know why Washington shunned those articulate Trump candidates in their suits and ties. They are not pliable. Bums like Fetterman are. Porn stars too."
