January 1, Fetterman Mocks GOP Colleagues in Crude Statement
In a striking twist amid the ongoing dress code controversy in the Senate, Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., has concurred to don a suit on the Senate floor, asserting this move as one to “save democracy.”
The decision, marked with vehement language, emerges amidst a wave of bipartisan discontent over Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer’s lenient modification to the Senate’s longstanding dress norms.
Fetterman’s consent to align with traditional Senate attire is tethered to explicit conditions. He has demanded that House Republicans orchestrate the passage of a government funding bill and proclaim unwavering support for Ukraine.
“If those jagoffs in the House stop trying to shut our government down, and fully support Ukraine, then I will save democracy by wearing a suit on the Senate floor,” Fetterman asserted in a public statement.
If those jagoffs in the House stop trying to shut our government down, and fully support Ukraine, then I will save democracy by wearing a suit on the Senate floor next week.

Fetterman’s distinctive apparel choices and Schumer’s leniency have sparked a tumult of debates over standards and institutional respect for the Senate. The Pennsylvanian Democrat, often spotted in casual attire, has embraced the altered rules, while openly mocking the disapproval emanating from Republican quarters.
Nevertheless, prominent Democrats, including Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., have vocalized concerns, highlighting the urgent need for maintaining decorum on the Senate floor.
“I’m concerned about it…I think we need to have standards when it comes to what we’re wearing on the floor of the Senate,” Durbin expressed during a SiriusXM interview, revealing discussions underway regarding the reinstatement of sartorial standards.
Further, moderate Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., is spearheading a proposal aiming to restore the Senate’s dress code, underscoring bipartisan unrest surrounding Schumer’s alterations.
The proposal has received backing from “the coalition of the rational,” as termed by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and seeks to delineate clear dress norms.
What We Think
This Senate dress code debacle is reflective of a deeper issue— it underscores a blatant disregard for the traditions and decorums that have long stood as the backbone of our esteemed institutions.
Fetterman’s casual approach to Senate attire and Schumer’s ensuing acquiescence are not just about clothes; they’re indicative of a waning respect for the Senate and its time-honored norms.
While it’s reassuring to witness bipartisan support to uphold Senate traditions, it’s disheartening that we’ve reached a juncture where a dress code sparks such controversies.
This scenario is emblematic of a broader societal shift towards casualness and a diminishing reverence for institutions that deserve our utmost respect. The ongoing dialogues and proposals to reestablish dress norms are crucial for preserving the dignity and decorum of the Senate.
The conditions set forth by Fetterman reveal another layer of the political tussle and emphasize the importance of maintaining unity, especially in matters concerning international affairs and governmental functions.
It’s high time that all senators, regardless of their party affiliations, unite to uphold the sanctity and dignity of the Senate, displaying a united front that resonates with responsibility, respect, and patriotic duty.

I think Senator Fetterman is a joke and should not be a Senator. The Senate floor should have a dress code that shows they at least look professional and not look like a street thug. Senator Schumer has proven many times he should not be the head of such an important part of the government. Senator Fetterman looks more like a clown then a United States Senator, what kind of example is he setting for the young people of this country. But then look at where crime is going now in this country.

Fetterman is the closest thing by dress and appearance to the Frankenstein Monster. Pity the Pennsylvania voters who voted for this monster.
How did he ever win an election–by manufactured Democrat, fradulent mail-in ballots?

I don’t care what you wear just start working for the people again. Not the 2% that you cater to now but the 98% that want our country back. There are several brain dead politicians that need to go in both parties. Let’s set term limits and start getting rid of these idiots in office.

Very well said. The same elected officials May dressed nice but don’t come to work. Last congressional cycle also caused government shutdown. Why don’t you come to work for the same persons who donated to you and voted for you but you fail to return the respect they deserve.

Fetterman should not demand anything and adhere to dress code, he shows disrespect for the office he is holding. Whether he is working for a private or government, there are dress codes. Even in a retail store you can’t come to work in a bathing suit. He is rediculous and his constituents should call and write him to demand he dress in business attire, if he refuses, they should recall him. I still can’t believe that PA residents voted for such a person. If they did, they are mindless.

On the one hand, Fetterman’s attire is definitely a joke and should not be allowed. But in the other hand, the way our politicians are acting as a whole, have zero room to be talking about “dignified” or sacred” or even “respectable” by the displays of their actions. It’s embarrassing as a citizen of this great country to witness all the bs coming out of our nation’s capital. They should ALL do better. My granddaughter’s kindergarten class is better behaved than the people who are supposed to be representing the American people.

And if the senate decides to stop burning truck loads of American Tax Money and then actually hold the governments feet to the fire over funding, and the fetterman shows up without a business suit, Don’t Let Him Into the Senate Chamber. Have the Sargent of Arms escort him out to the parking lot…

#1, If you’re referring to the 2020 election, it was NOT “stolen”. #2, the “consequences” also are evident with the likes of George Santos, Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Boebert & a few others

I feel the decorum is important in maintaining protocol and professionalism…too many things are causing America to lose its identity of a Nation proud of its heritage. I’m proud to be an American and want our nation to continue in the values of our constitution…to change the dress code for one man who does not represent who we are is absurd…happy the dress code has been reversed to the proper place…

Fetterman is a classless Slob! His wife wanted to be a “Senator’s wife” so badly she could taste it and that’s why she kept pushing him into these senseless debates where he made an absolute fool of himself. He can’t articulate a sentence without several “you knows”. He is a disgrace to our government and if the PA. voters have any common sense, they’ll recall this baboon!
