I think that suit doesn't look good on him. Maybe I'm just not into tan clothes.

It doesn't fit him well, which is typical for his suits. He obviously doesn't spend the amount of money on his wardrobe that either Reagan or Bush did. You can tell the difference in quality immediately. That is not to his detriment at all. He is clearly more frugal.

They think they've lit on something (like the lack of tie in Oval Office) and immediately it's plain they forgot their heroes did the same thing. Will they ever learn? There are tons of photos of Presidents out there.

I thought he looked very nice and liked the color, although I would have put a more colorful tie with it.
