who feels the need to sport a girdle, a 20-foot long tie, and lifts.

Taft was known as a very “big” man, but he was no slob. Trump is a slob.

.... perfect together and I am willing to bet he didn't hold up anything to show off that
he signed something either. Just a sharp dressed man working for America.

while watching Pres. Biden give a talk on climate change initiatives. She agreed. His clothes fit and they they look well made. It certainly helps that he is physically fit and apparently has good taste in clothing (or that Dr. Biden has good taste in men's clothing).

They ride bikes among other forms of exercise. I could be wrong but I don't think they golf.

A good tailor can make a suit fit well on any frame. Biden's suits fit!
Unlike a certain pretend billionaire we know.
I'm convinced that it was a "No, I'm a 46 with a 36 inch waist" argument with a tailor who knew it was 48/40.
If he actually had big money, those would fit perfectly to the stitch length.

Good gawd the drapers were a decent color. I know that’s a small petty thing but yeah the oval office drapes are not horrific.

And they run. And drink water. Awesome.

And it’s just so weird to read what the Trumpers say on various social media posts about Biden. They truly view Trump as a real man and Biden is not in their eyes.

Just flipped from how we see Trump vs Biden.

I don’t know how one fixes that.

And we will see the unmanly actor diminished by comparison and by the harsh light of truth.
