Blue because its the democrats fault… /s but yeah seriously who gives a fart. Lets criticize something important
Only TDS cares about non issues like this
In the last fifteen years, Republicans have been on the attack for everything Democrats do. They don’t pick and choose their battles. They are perpetually aggressive and now they have all three branches of government. No one has to care what suit Trump wears, but any excuse to make fun of him means your side is on the attack.
I think it’s some cultural thing where you wear black to funerals and no one but the bride wears white to weddings. Rules people made up to get mad at other people are bizarre and awful but I’ll use them to attack fascists any day of the week. edit: typo
I thought liberals claimed to take the high road?
Liberals as in Neoliberals do. Neocons and fascists definitely don’t, but will claim they do. Progressives have thankfully figured out they can be mean. The fact most Democrat politicians are useless neoliberals doesn’t mean we have to be.
Liberals, neolibs, and neocons are all fascist.
Don’t try to shame 47, he has no shame. I can’t even watch the UK office because of second hand cringe, but he would probably take notes
Honestly, I don’t give a fuck. He’s doing genuinely despicable things that are much more deserving of the media’s limited time.
I hate trump but I would wear a bright red shirt with Satan on it to the popes funeral
Wow this is just Reddits /r/politics. You’re as bad as Trump and his minions, who even gives a shit if he wears a suit, not to mention a few shades darker?
BlueMAGA isnt so far removed from MAGA as they think
It’s pretty much a rule for funerals: wear black clothes and if you wear a tie, use a black one, if you wear a ribbon, make it a black one
He’s basically is wearing black. Your gonna bust someone’s balls over a small shade difference in real life too or is this a massive circlejerk?
It’s not even dark blue. You may have some color blindness. The suit and tie are blue, not a shade of gray.
Did you just fall off the truck?
Probably got his legs blown off invading Ukraine so they gave hima desk job in psyops
Only real pieces of shit criticize something as benign as a suit. Like yourself, and Trump himself.
This whole thing is stupid.Apparently the dress code is dark suit + black tie. So this is fine. Trump’s tie was blue
Joe Biden, however, is a Catholic
This guy is not the president of the United States.
No, he’s the future King of England, and also, like Trump, not a Catholic, there’s a link here.
Fashion faux pas? Lock him up!
Wearing black to a funeral isn’t about fashion
Oh come on, tan suit again? You’re better than this, people
We’re living in a fascist dictatorship. If making fun of Trump for his blue suit makes Republicans lose in the midterms that’s all that matters. Anyone who seriously believes suit color matters at a funeral is living in a state of self-inflicted misery.
It doesn’t matter, the hypocrisy matters.
No one cares about hypocrisy enough to change their vote. Besides Obama’s tan suit didn’t matter then, Fox News needed their daily sound bite, and Trump’s blue suit doesn’t matter now, we need a sound bite today. But if anyone is being hypocritical it’s Fox for not being outraged over Trump. And of course the Republicans and MAGA do not care. It was always about having another controversy to use as a wedge against Obama to gain political power.
Trump knows criticism of any kind is bad for him. That’s why he references the Tds, Trump derangement syndrome, in his rallies. When he runs out of things to blame Obama and Biden for he can just blame the people who don’t vote for him. He knows it keeps his base happy, makes him look good to Republican voters, and that he was never getting Democrats or leftists to vote for him. The Democrats really need to learn that last one, but about Republicans.
Ok we won’t talk about anything that doesn’t change votes three years from now.
I guess we won’t talk about anything.
First, hypocrisy is not a worthwhile criteria for an idea. We should judges ideas independently of the people espousing them. People who practice what they preach can practice awful, harmful, and useless ideas and people who don’t practice what they preach can preach great, helpful, and useful ideas.
Second, plenty of things change votes. And I guess anything, even hypocrisy might change someone’s vote on something. But it clearly didn’t with this case about the blue suit with Republicans.
But making fun of Trump might make him seem that much less based to some of the people who casually vote for candidates and if that translates into some fractional change in votes against Republicans it will have been worth it.
Ok, you can go and talk about whatever you want. I’ll do the same.
Sounds good.
Honestly, now that we’re literally sending people to concentration camps, I have zero fucks to give about this superficial bullshit. No one gives a shit about what Hitler wore at the '36 Olympics, and no one’s gonna care what this asshole wore to a funeral.
It’s purely to be on the attack. Republicans showed for the last fifteen years if you’re performatively aggressive against the opposition eventually you get what you want.
You don’t have to hate Trump or his suit color. Just love democracy and socialism and the working class. If this gets some apolitical conservative people to not vote for the Republicans then awesome.
The thing was that they resorted to the tan suit and terrorist first bump bullshit because Obama gave them so little to work with. For Trump you didn’t need to waste everyone’s time when his administration is ignoring court orders, arresting judges, declaring warrants and due process unnecessary, and tanking the economy.
The tan suit stuff may have helped energize the base by preaching to the choir, but everyone else found it ridiculous and made them skeptical of conservative media. When you are inundated nearly daily with real terrible stuff, no need to undermine credibility by latching into this sort of fluff.
Not to defend him, but that’s exactly what Francis didn’t care about.
When I die I won’t give a single fuck what people who go to my funeral wear.
I’m not defending the guy. I’m just accusing the church of being the other side. Assholes on both sides. I hope my exercised freedom of speech doesn’t ruffle feathers. I don’t have a suit myself.
I remember when John Paul died and we got Ratzinger Z who was promptly removed for sexual stuff. So I might live to see 4 popes! What a time to be alive! 4 popes. Most people I know are also 3 popes old and pushing for 4.
Funerals are not for the dead, they’re for the living experiencing grief in the wake of a loss.
Yeah, so I sure as fuck don’t want people telling anyone nice enough to come to my funeral that they wore the wrong color suit. Make fun of Trump and the fascists whose voters hopefully will be as annoyed at this. But don’t trouble the rest of us about it.
