Republicans are ridiculous

[AntivaxHunters]

While maybe not the most ridiculous thing you've ever seen in Congress, this surely has to come awfully close.

1. if you think this was 'shameful'

or in some manner 'disrespectful' ...
Chances are you'll find that a minority opinion - and ready yourself for some pushback.

(was it a 'stunt'? clearly. other hand - wasn't it just a week ago that people were defending a certain member for wearing board shorts and a hoodie .. )

2. You mean that IDF hoodie?

Just saying.

3. don't know

is IDF paraphernalia more 'disrespectful' than board shorts and flip flops?

guess it's kinda' in the eye of the beholder

4. It sure as hell is.

In the eye of the beholder, that is. Business suits have NEVER impressed me as anything remotely decent or respectful. They can go the way of the powdered wig, as far as I'm concerned.

5. respectfully disagree

not that I'm such a big fan of 'suits' (either the people or the apparel)
But it's also hard to perceive board shorts as anything other that a middle finger aimed at convention (and by extension fellow members?). And, by most lights - that would fall under the heading of disrespect.

The clown in the OP is certainly a clown ... Whether he is any bigger clown with this apparel ...

6. I think it's playing dress up & silly peojection

And Republicans are the king 👑 of silliness.
Just like Boebert & Santos running around the balls of Congress carrying babies.

8. can't really disagree with on any of those points -(nt)-

7. Republicans love to cosplay like the military

but sure as hell don't support it.
