This man cannot tie a necktie and it's a crappy looking tie anyhow and he is thus not qualified to be POTUS.

To be president, the successful (male) candidate will demonstrate his ability to tie a necktie. And release his tax returns. When I am emperor . And also: no more chewing gum.

Has it occurred to you that it may be one of those fake elasticated ties rather than a traditional tie?

If I were a President...I'd ban all neckties.

I suck at tying ties, but I think I do better than that. And of course he has people who could do that for him, so it says something that he can’t take a couple minutes out of his busy schedule of golf and Fox News to let someone fix it.

I think it says more that people around him will let him walk around with that abomination  of a tie knot. Much less people I care about, even a coworker would have to be pretty terrible person for me to not tackfully inform their wardrobe was askew and instead let them walk around looking like a schmuck.

I measure my success in the amount of days I don’t wear ties.

Of the few things I respect about Obrador is that he’s authentic about his apparel, he just uses shirts, no fancy 50,000 dollar suits like the old president.

Sure, the old president was so hot that he started dating a supermodel a month after divorcing a celebrity TV actress. But I’d prefer them not to try so hard with the visuals.

It’s a full windsor knot, rather than the more common half windsor.  I use this knot partly because I like the symmetry, and also because it uses a bit more length of fabric, and so makes the tie look better on me because I am sitting.  I tends to get that crinkle in the middle because more of the wide part of the tie is in the knot.

That tie probably cost like $150 and it’s BORING!

“Nice necktie, Mr. President. Have you seen the ratings on that tie?”

“Great tie, Sir. Is that Trump-branded?”

“Mr. President: would you consider helping me tie my tie sometime? But shucks; you’re probably so busy...”

Yes, but you are not president of the United States. Donald Trump orders his neckties 72 inches long to compensate for his small hands.

Do I remember that you are an academic?

I don’t mind wearing one once in a while. When I began teaching I wore one for two-and-a-half years, never failing. Then I ditched it when I figured out that really, nobody cared. Even the district superintendent, when he comes around, wears a polo shirt.

It was a spectacular epiphany: I set up a video camera to watch myself teaching and made myself a laughingstock to myself. I realized that I thought that my students actually gave a crap about what I was doing. That was a real shocker. I was taking myself very seriously.

The thing about clothing, especially for people in positions of power, is that it’s a signifier.

When I was a teenager, I learned the rules of dress clothes. This is why I can never take anyone wearing a button-down seriously, unless they’re riding a horse. In which case, how the hell did they get the horse into the room.

It’s just common sense. Anything else is just trolling. To wit: tying a goddamn tie. Too many times this buffoon has been documented using tape, or tying a Ranfurly (look it up), or trying to compensate for... something.

It’s just goddamn embarrassing.

I have a coworker who always goes on how he “has to have the best” Whole Foods, a bmw, a 10k stereo. Meanwhile he shows up to conference wearing a suit with white socks. We thought it was a joke at first.  Another coworker “uh forget to pack” “ what do you mean?”

In the Washington, DC, the ratio of horses’ asses to horses is greater than one. And my dress shirts all have button-down collars, so you can go roll in horse pooh in your club collar shirt (look it up).

And this guy? He can go roll in pooh too, and he must have some nasty shirt collars. And I bet that mustache retains the aroma of whatever he ate for lunch, along with cookie crumbs. (And I’d rather wear a Ranfurly than a full W indsor any day.)

I’ll have my steak well done, please, with a bottle of ketchup.

Bad tie-manship is in style. Look at these idiots:

And this one:

And this idiot wearing a version of the Dr Evil / Kim Jong Un outfit that doesn’t even feature a tie:

You know who DOES have great ties though?

Trudeau’s knot is okay, because the half-Windsor sort of be like that. Much more forgivable than Trump’s full Windsor fail.

Whoever that second guy is needs to go back to the Thrift Store and continue shopping.

I think the tie Putin is wearing here is one of those that’s permanently tied and has an adjustment in the back.

And if we’re going to pick on the women for their suits, then:

I actually really like the green one, though I think the shoes need to be a little bit darker. Fits her well and is quite flattering, IMHO:

Just don't think Oppo is the place for politics or religion, there are plenty of places for that outside of Oppo.
