(16,299 posts)First off the length of most of his jackets are way too long, and he wears a pretty long sleeve. This is why he wears long ties to match the absurd length of his jacket. The idea of the entire approach is to make the suit more slimming. The problem with that is it makes his hands look small and his legs short.
I don't know why he has started wearing wide pants.

Why isnt this more of an issue. The POTUS of the US and his daughter produce clothes that are made in China.
Why is this acceptable?

(22,976 posts)Im a cap collector, all my lids are the classic vintage-style (fitted, athletic-wool construction, green undervisor) obtained from Ebbets Field Flannels in Seattle over 29 years (!). Thais the set-up.
But now, every time Im out in public, whenever I see someone in a red cap, I check to see if its a crummy 45 MAGA snap-back job. (Im in Southern California, so they are blessedly rare.)
So I dont wear my offbeat red caps, from the 1955 Seattle Raniers to the 1950 Juarez Indios. I NEVER want to be mistaken for one of 45s Republican Zombie followers.
