Looking presentable is a priority no? I mean they're not dressed like British barristers, but I also think showing up to a legislature in a hoodie and shorts is trashy
You think it looks trashy, I think it looks comfortable. It's not a dirty or greasy hoodie, just casual. I'd rather a lawmaker be comfortable and undistracted than worried about their appearance.
I'd be happy with that actually, why would that be a problem? People shouldn't hide that sort of thing, be open about so it can be mocked and ridiculed.
Christ on a shitstick. Look around. You think our problem is that some dude wore a goddamn hoodie? No, looking presentable is not a fucking priority. Maybe you’ll realize that when you have a $657,190 medical bill to pay for a sick child or something.
I'm also going to get down voted to hell, but I feel like pants and a shirt without a pouch or hood isn't asking too much.
They don't have to be expensive clothes, but when I worked in retail I had to wear khakis and a nice shirt. it seems like an elected representative would dress better than a cashier at Walmart.
