After winning his race in November, Fetterman began his term in the Senate, but six weeks later, he checked himself into a hospital to get treatment for depression. The 53-year-old had suffered a serious stroke over the summer, which badly affected his mental capacity and hearing.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his absence, Fetterman&#8217;s relaxed and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ap-says-fetterman-flouting-senate-dress-code-shows-robust-recovery-from-depression\/\" title=\"Fetterman's disregard for Senate dress code signals recovery from depression, says AP.\">comfortable style<\/a> has been the subject of much debate. The Associated Press recently reported that Fetterman is doing great, citing his hoodie and shorts as a sign of his robust recovery. However, some critics argue that his attire is unprofessional and disrespectful to the Senate.<\/p>\n<h3>Rules or No Rules?<\/h3>\n<p>The dress code in Congress isn&#8217;t formally in any rule book, but male senators are expected to wear a jacket and tie on the Senate floor. Fetterman, however, often casts his votes from the doorway of the Democratic cloakroom or the side entrance, and when he&#8217;s not on the Senate floor, he wears his hoodies and shorts. Democrats seem to be fine with Fetterman flouting the dress code, but others say the rules are the rules.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Conservative comedian Tim Young wrote on Twitter: &#8220;John Fetterman&#8217;s attire in the Senate perfectly summarizes Democrats lack of respect for Americans and our institutions.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Another user tweeted: &#8220;Voting from the doorway of the Senate chamber because you won&#8217;t give up your clown outfit (shorts\/hoodie) is unprofessional and an insult to PA voters! Resign NOW and let the voters select a better Senator.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Despite the controversy, Fetterman&#8217;s supporters say that his attire is a non-issue and that he should be judged on his policies and actions, not his clothing.<\/p>\n<h3>Speech Issues<\/h3>\n<p>But Fetterman&#8217;s attire isn&#8217;t the only thing that&#8217;s been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/covid-tracking-apps-have-eerie-echoes-of-chinese-surveillance-system\/\" title=\"COVID Tracking Apps Have Eerie Echoes of Chinese Surveillance System\">causing controversy<\/a>. Fox News Digital recently reported that Fetterman&#8217;s staff sometimes clean up his quotes from the Senate floor to make him sound less incoherent. This has raised concerns about his ability to perform his job effectively.<\/p>\n<p>While Fetterman&#8217;s unconventional style may be divisive, it&#8217;s clear that he&#8217;s not afraid to be himself. Whether that&#8217;s a good thing or a bad thing is up for debate.<\/p>\n<p><b>Get the Daily Wire App for more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-shows-growing-democratic-opposition-to-cheap-labor-migration\/\" title=\"Poll Shows Growing Democratic Opposition to Cheap Labor Migration\">political news<\/a> and analysis.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
