I mean... hands, sure. But also TFG looks like a budget hack job from Madame Tussauds Wax Museum... And the women look like they're hot off a clone machine.

Judge ignites flurry of activity in Trump Jan. 6 case

The return of former President Trump’s Jan. 6 prosecution to District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan has ignited a flurry of activity in the once-dormant case, reviving a high-stakes court battle after a series of legal wins for the former president.

The case is back in Chutkan’s hands after the Supreme Court formally sent it back to the lower courts after providing Trump a victory in determining that as a former president, he maintains broad immunity from criminal prosecution.

That ended a roughly eight-month pause in the case, and Chutkan has made clear the hiatus is over.

Just hours after the case was handed back over on Friday, she scheduled an Aug. 16 conference to chart the course for handling numerous unresolved issues in the case — likely teeing off a discussion over whether to hold what some have deemed a minitrial.

And Saturday, she ruled against Trump on a pending bid to toss the case, determining he failed to demonstrate any prosecutorial bias on the part of special counsel Jack Smith in bringing the case.

“She certainly has signaled with her rapid disposition of the selected prosecution motion, with setting a quick briefing schedule and a speedy hearing on the 16th that she wants to keep things moving, and that is how the justice system should work,” said Norm Eisen, who served as counsel for Democrats in Trump’s first impeachment, told The Hill.

I remember that tux...

It's difficult for a man to look bad in white tie and tails - required dress for men at Cambridge May Balls, at least back in my day - but Trump managed it. I remember wondering how his tailor let it happen, but then I recalled how bad Trump is at paying his bills.

Trump always looks like he's wearing off-the-rack. His clothes never fit. Maybe if he does have a tailor, he's been telling him the same weight and height he tells the public?

But it's hard to imagine an off-the-rack tailcoat would come with so long a waistcoat.

This seems to match up with an article that I read about why Trump's suits don't fit. In order to hide his stomach, they size his jackets for his stomach instead off his chest and then pad the shoulders. But if you rent/borrow a tailcoat and ask for a jacket that fits the chest, it is going to be smaller than a vest that fits his stomach. If you get a jacket that fits the stomach you need to get the sleeves shortened and the shoulders padded, which he might not have had time for.

There is a subreddit called One Orange Brain Cell. It is devoted to derpy orange cats who get their turn sharing the brain cell. DirtyQTip wrote, I've been avoiding this sub for quite some time, I thought it was a Trump subreddit, so glad it's cats! Douchelini deserves to go to jail since he never gets the brain cell. A lot of the comments are hilarious.

While there's apparently a White House tailor, it seems Trump bought this one off the peg. Serious mistake in his case, I think.

There’s one key problem—and it’s not his jacket.

And not to fat-shame, but he looks as if he's about to give birth in this photo (though I guess the shadows cast by his jacket don't help).

(Also, he's stepping in front of HM -- serious breach of protocol. To the Tower with him! Bang him up in Little Ease and let the rats nibble his toes!).

I am much shorter and a bit round at the middle, which is part of why I learned to make clothes. Victorian and 1920s fashion was more kind to dwarven figures than modern slim fit suits.

I am in fact making a tailcoat off an 1860ish pattern at the moment. I ended up lengthening the torso and shortening the sleeves and tails for a better fit.

What makes Trump's fit look so distracting is that all of the buttons fall below the natural waist. Moden slacks are worn between the waist, defined as the widest point of the lower torso just below the belly button, and the hips.

I prefer to wear 20s style trousers that come up to the waist and a waistcoat that overlaps a few inches. It has a better line because the stomach does not overhang the waistband. Trump wears his lower but baggy, ruining the look.

But back to Trump's vest, the low buttons make the sides curve around and emphasize the belly. On Manchin, you can see the middle button of the vest is at the natural waist for a much cleaner look that covers his stomach instead of accentuating it.

eta: If you look at the third gentleman in line, he has a similar build as Trump but is wearing a higher waist which looks much better.
