Mick Mulvaney's Air Force One Outfit ...

Mick Mulvaney’s Air Force One Outfit Becomes A Hilarious Meme: ‘Trump’s Caddy’

A photograph of acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney set Twitter alight on Friday. Reuters photographer Tom Brenner snapped Mulvaney soon after he arrived at Palm Beach International Airport, Florida, on Air Force One following President Donald Trump’s Thanksgiving visit to Afghanistan.

He was wearing a stars and stripes shirt ― and a hat emblazoned with the words “Space Force,” in reference to Trump’s planned new branch of the U.S. military.

Tweeters inevitably had some thoughts on Mulvaney’s outfit. “He totally looks like Trump’s caddy in this photo,” wrote one.
Added another: “Mick Mulvaney looks like he’s starring in a Disney+ movie about a 10-year-old who accidentally becomes president.”

They seem to fall for a symbol or facade and it really doesn't matter what's beneath it. It is shocking how gullible they can be and yes, I know that education, upbringing and environment play important parts in the problem.

As long as that works, the Republicans and Trump have a clamp on the balls of their base. I think, when they receive the results of being "fooled again" repeatedly they project their anger onto the scapegoat du jour, (chosen by the dictator) rather than entertaining the fact that they were misled and then moving on. That just keeps it going on like a catch-22 and we see a lot of hateful projection because of it.

That kind of toxicity has a very detrimental impact on a society. Too bad they don't realize or understand that often.

Wearing a representation of the flag as clothing is disrespectful of what the flag represents. Republicans don't get that, obviously, since they make a habit of donning the flag to disguise their contempt for the principles it stands for.

We have a government of toadies. We can be thankful they are not more competent at the destruction they seek to inflict.

No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform.

Does anyone see a flag pin on Ivanka's outfit at the UN?

Have any patriotic republicans complained?
