Heaven forbid I dissuade anyone from piling on JD Vance, but black shoes and navy suiting is the classic combination.

I have the sartorial taste of the average chimpanzee, but I thought the same when it was pointed out.  "Wait, what?)

I don't post all that often, though don't mistake that for not enjoying this board's discourse, OUsucks/Texags point and laughs, and quality original content on a frequent basis. I haven't felt t

Yep. This is the GQP today in a nutshell. That’s who they are and what they project. Can’t even go outside and walk across the street bc people with dark skin will rape or shoot you.

 

Even if you make it across without getting shot and or raped, that loaf of bread is $6000

I have no doubt that Trump is fucking around with Netanyahu, looking for anything that can help him in November, including anything that can rile the kids who seem to only give a shit about the Palestinians.

And the reason why is because we heard rumors that he was pressuring Republicans in Congress not to support the border bill, and then low and behold it starts to come out from Republicans in fucking Congress that Trump was pressuring them.

Mr. Michelle Obama was great as usual, but Michelle's tribute to her mother and connecting those values to the greatness of the fabric of this nation and Kamala and Tim, and her call to action to close out her speech was some of the best, most impassioned monologues I've ever heard.  You could feel her pain of what Trump has afflicted on this nation and democracy that she has such reverence for.

I may not have realized this before, but in the post-Obama world, I've felt as a child born in the US with two immigrant parents that this country is somehow not mine and slipping away from me.  Fuck these people for making feel like that.  Watching Michelle speak today gave me a little of that pride back.  I'm an American and I love this country.  Thank you Michelle, thank you Kamala, thank you Tim Walz, thank you Rev. Warnock, thank you AOC, and so many others for the words many of us needed to hear these past two nights and the weeks since Biden stepped aside.

Trump's intern spent an hour or two cranking through Florida primary wins, which is why they are not posting the screenshots of what Trump's account was actually doing.

Anyways, those two amazing speeches tonight, that roll call, and to top it off, J.Lo is on the market again.

Probably unpopular opinion but I hope Harris has a different rallying call for Thursday besides "not going back." It doesn't feel large enough to meet the moment.

I’m not sure I’d say unpopular. I’d say majority. Because to me it feels like it’s tapped into something in the moment.

Agree with @Red Five, I won't knock anyone for it, but navy with some shade of brown shoes is where it's at. Fight me 

Uh, ok? I wear brown shoes with blue suits all the time, not saying anyone shouldn't. These days it's totally acceptable. But historically black shoes were proper, that's not my opinion, rather fact. No brown in town and all that.

 

Anyhoo we have a whole menswear thread to discuss sartorial matters, so we can leave this to piling on the couch fucker. Or there's actually a whole politics and menswear thread on the menswear forum I mod.

Oh so you want to go back? Interesting.

 

I feel like with how her campaign and messaging has been run so far we shouldn't worry about that. They seem in touch with the base and the bases they're trying to pull from the grasp of MAGA as it continues to ostracize itself further and further.

In the span of 24 hours, we got

  • An amazing convention that triggered many a Republican meltdown
  • Alongside a rally that was far larger than Trump’s in the same venue.  
  • Lil Jon representing Georgia like nobody else could and probably helping win it while confusing old white people 
  • Barrack Obama making fun of Trump’s dick in front of a national audience 
  • Michelle Obama cutting loose and telling the world what she really thinks about Trump after 7 years 
  • A brand new Sid Meier’s Civilization VII being announced
  • J.Lo is once again on the market

I could be wrong, but I don’t think it was intended to be a slogan. It was a line from an early speech, the crowd started chanting it, and the campaign realized they hit a nerve.
