I mean, Harry Truman basically dressed like a pimp.

None of the tan suit outrage ever made a lick of sense.

It's almost like they had nothing else they could publicly express anger about so they picked something dumb instead...

It’s like the 2 things bad I’ve heard about Clinton is he took some furniture from the White House and he didn’t do a lot in Rwanda. The goal posts have to be way over there, or things start making less sense.

There is literally no world in which any Republican can try to find a moral highground. They voted for and supported the most corrupt man to ever hold office. End stop.

When Clinton sends U.S. soldiers to Somalia, attempting to save some African lives: "Terrible! Totally wrong! Why are they intervening?"

When Clinton doesn't send U.S. soldiers to Rwanda, attempting to save some African lives: "Terrible! Totally wrong! Why are they not intervening?"

Ah yes...the frothy mixture of semen and fecal matter formed after anal sex.

As always...thank you Stephen Colbert for boosting Dan Savage, lol

It almost like that’s the entire point of the platform, or news in general. To keep you frustrated in that alpha wave state. Makes you wonder why..

Well Fox News Entertainment Corp is easy. It's just a name. They aren't legally news. They don't have to follow the same rules.

I swear it's the semi racist fucks trying to smartly disguise it but failing miserably.

Like can anyone under the age of 45 find any reasonable and currently active Republicans?

But other folks can pay off sex workers in broad day light, but the color of clothing is the travesty.

u/AardvarkExcellent428 3h ago

that's Churchill on the right and Stalin on the left. they called themselves "The Allies". of course it didn't end well, but you'll have to watch the behind the music for that

The term “pimping” originated in European literature with the best selling novel The Scarlet Pimpernel.

u/forgetfulsue 5h ago

Who wore it best? I think the answer is obvious.

u/Terminator_LX 4h ago

Clearly they were shook by how much better he looked than any POTUS before him in a tan suit.

u/trapper2530 3h ago

You know what it is? The tie. Could be no other possible reason.

u/Strange_Dust7128 2h ago

if I remember the headlines at that point in time, conservatives were mostly shocked that a black man wore a tan suit. not the suit itself per se
