Defining Down
Michael Smith
Many dismiss Schumer's move to reduce the dress requirements of the Senate to Fetterman levels, but there is more to it than that.
It is the simple desire of the collectivist Democrat mind to reduce everything, including the standards of our civilization, to the least common denominator, to render everything into something "less" because anything "more" is somehow the exhibition of inequality and therefore undesirable.
Tim adds:
Always with them it is defining deviancy/sloth down. There is a reason why people dress up; it makes the point this is serious business. The formality sets a standard. Walking around like you are at a beach party is fine for a beach party, but it degrades the dignity of the Senate. Look how much schools have declined since they ended dress codes for kids.

Well, boys and girls, they've finally turned this one around, and I really hope that Up-Chuck Schumer has all sorts of egg (and other stuff) all over his face for this one. As for me, if I were a Republican Senator, I don't think I'd let a day go by that I wouldn't find a way to razz him over this.
I also hope they won't make Fetterman find clever ways to get around this. Sorry, he's not a victim here.
