    It’s very difficult to take Fetterman serious when he doesn’t have even take a simple dress code serious. The sentiment is commendable but if he wants to push that agenda further and get people to listen he needs to at least dress in a way that gets people to pay attention.

    John Fetterman is a disaster and an embarrassment to the people of Pennsylvania which he represents in Congress.
    First, immediately upon being sworn in as a new Senator, he disappears from the Senate and it was soon discovered that he was being treated for severe depression. The newly elected Senator is going through deep psychological problems is allowed the time to deal with those problems by being absent from a job representing Pennsylvania for almost 6 weeks -all on the taxpayer’s dime, of course
    Upon returning to the Senate Fetterman immediately flaunts the long standing dress code and balks at wearing a coat and tie, instead choosing to dress slovenly in shorts and a hoodie. Another huge embarrassment for Pennsylvania. Fetterman’s decision to bum around the Senate Chamber in hoodies and shorts is a sign of how little Fetterman cares about representing his voters.
    He wants everyone to think that his voters are slobs. What’s more, his attire choices are reflective of the same kind of entitlement mentality that defines not the working class of America, but the upper class. Fetterman comes from one of the wealthiest families in Pennsylvania!
    It’s a strange world when a US Senator cares so little about professionalism and the image he projects as a representative of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
    The Senate is not just a legislative body but a symbol of our democracy and the values we hold dear as a nation. Fetterman has become a disaster in Congress and has made Pennsylvania a laughing stock.

    Sorry, I'm a Canadian.... who is the unprofessional guy in the hoody? Wow! Does he have a Go Fund Me page because he can't afford a dress shirt..... or at least a collared golf shirt? I think it is unfair that people mock him by calling him "Senator"!! Obviously, he is not a Senator and calling him as such is disturbing to all people who respect the Senate of the USA AND respect the homeless who are advocating for a better life

    who here in the comments section believes Trump does not read his speeches from a teleprompter? Same for Biden or any other politician for that matter. With Trump it's always easy to spot when he goes off-script, i.e. off-teleprompter in his speeches (which are written by staffers). If you read Fetterman's questions and the answers to them rather than watched this video, you might consider the issue and decide whether you agree with him or not. As it is, it seems fair to assume the reason Forbes put this video up is not because it cares about China owning US farmland.

    its hard to even listen to him, like i feel for people with speech impediments, but he can barely get a point across. and thats reading from prepared remarks... and yeah, how can you respect someone who doesnt even respect their own office?( dresscode)
