He does. He is the best dressed of that entire crew of politicians and some of the outfits are both striking and well tailored. He does have flair. I suppose he also has an entire nation's labor at his beck and call too but then, what price style?

That must make him the envy of every SFer.

He is not a member of SF. Actually, what's most alarming is that he is undoubtedly a bespoke client and that someone let him walk out with that thing :-(
