In the interest of fairness...

One of DU’s favorite subjects of discussion is the hideousness of Donald Trump’s hair, makeup and wardrobe.

So, it would be a bad thing if we didn’t point out just how well Kamala Harris is put together.

Along with her impeccable taste, complementary wardrobe, and attention to personal detail expected of a superbly professional woman. And, I’m sure the best is yet to come and I’m excited for the rest of the story.

which is entirely appropriate for her position. Like most male congresscritters, she dresses like you'd expect a professional person to dress to go to work in an office, for example.

She has, I believe, shown up in more casual attire at different events, though there hasn't been a lot of chances to do that in this covid altered campaign. Wish we could see her in more county fair-like events. She has an engaging smile and a friendly demeanor. Makes it all the more effective when she skewers someone on the witness stand.

She's a handsome woman, TBS. The best part of her appearance IMNSHO is the total absence of anything fake or contrived, unlike our spokesmodel 1st woman, who appears to be approaching critical mass in the amount of plastic and paint she uses.

I've never understood the disdain for pants suits on women. They seem a lot more practical and comfortable than dresses for a working environment. The RW excoriated Hillary for wearing them. Still seems silly to me.
