I don't like the all white suits. I also wonder if maybe winter white is a better color for her.

Yeah, she looks better in off-white or winter white. I like the cut of her jacket, too.

Are we to judge her by her appearance? That's Trumpian, and scary.

And hey, yours is only one of a number of OPs where the subject is what HRC is wearing.

But I am wondering what this is about. We wouldn't do that with a man. And when Trump comments, well you may want to plug your ears.

Don't suggest what I might do with my body.

Good evening to you.

Yeah, I'm suggesting you will not care to hear the emanations of his foul mouth. Did you not get that? Or are you focused on an effort to paint me as one who wants to tell you what to do with your body?

-on edit-

Again, I ask, what is the point of commenting on a HRC's appearance?

Among the few pointing that out.

But I am seeing a lot of posts about how "she looks". I don't get that in the context of a presidential race.

There are quite a few threads and post along that line. And one with a picture taken by a famous photog from the 90s that looks like a perfume ad. I really don't get it.
