Where Are Hillary Clinton's Pantsuits Made? Right Here in Beverly Hills

In a segment on the Sunday morning news program "Fox and Friends," anchor Anna Kooiman said pantsuits designed by Susanna Beverly Hills that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton often wears were made outside the United States.

The anchors were discussing Clinton's hypocrisy in criticizing GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump for manufacturing clothes bearing his name outside the U.S.

"Susanna Beverly Hills garments are the product of hundreds of hours of American labor, and women, including Hillary Clinton, can be proud to wear a garment that has been crafted with the absolute most care and skill here in the United States," the fashion house said in a release.

Although Trump accuses Chinese manufacturers of "raping the USA," all his clothes are made there. His real ties appear to be with the Sicilian and Russian Mafia...

Crisis Engulfs Fox News as Roger Ailes Sexual Harassment & Spying Scandal Grows

Further revelations about former Fox News chief Roger Ailes are surfacing, raising questions about how much the company was aware of his transgressions. Ailes has now been accused of sexual harassment by more than 20 women, including Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly and former anchor Gretchen Carlson. Earlier this week, another former Fox News host also accused Ailes of sexual harassment. Andrea Tantaros says she repeatedly reported Ailes’s harassment to senior Fox executives last year. She says she was demoted and then taken off air as a result. To talk more about these revelations, we’re joined by Sarah Ellison, Vanity Fair contributing editor. Her most recent piece is an exclusive headlined "Inside the Fox News Bunker." It exposes the existence of explosive audiotapes recorded by multiple women in conversation with Ailes. Sarah Ellison is also the author of "War at The Wall Street Journal: Inside the Struggle to Control an American Business Empire." http://www.democracynow.org/2016/8/11/crisis_engulfs_fox_news_as_roger

Heil Führer Trump!

Re-posting safe links to online images, which the Republican National Committee (RNC) will soon scrub from the internet could be of historic value to many people. In future OPs, other people can safely utilize this image, instead of an outside link.

Replying to you only seems to encourage more off-topic crap. For the life of me, I cannot see how a Trump/Hitler photoshop image relates to the topic of this thread.

Dude, it's immaterial.

Wasn't the main premise in the Opening Post clothes of US Presidential Candidates and Fox News? I mean, what if some people think Hillary has a great sense of fashion? Does Trump look good in this color?

Donald Trump was deliberately making all these faces during an important Republican debate.

Because it's Hillary, and everything Hillary must be attacked! Even pantssuits.

So yes, their ridiculous pantssuit attacks have become a joke, and not so inside.'

Everybody but you knows about this. But don't worry--there are lots of people here who can get you up to speed.

If anything it shows how out of touch Trump is with his "pro-America" crap and his actual honesty.

But, yeah, no one should assume any apparent right wing attack as true without investigating. I'm just sayin'. It could've happened if they weren't on top of things as well as they are and that would've been an embarrassment.

I must confess I don't doubt the competence of the Clinton campaign so her using outsourced labor is laughable to me in any event.

Guess which one.

It's not just that Hilllary is smart, she's assembled a team of the best and the smartest. The professionalism we see on one side of the contest is in stark contrast to the other side.

It's really nice to be on the right side, isn't it Josh?

Her go to choice for formal clothing has long been American designer Oscar de la Renta who made Chelsea's wedding dress, Hillary's mother of the bride ensemble, and Grandma Dorothy's formal gown.

While she was at State, Hillary's entourage was known as the "sisterhood of the traveling pantsuit".

But males running for office hardly get the same attention paid to their suits. I don't recall any of the republicans in the primaries getting their suits scrutinized and unfavorably compared to some other candidate's.

Men - accepting bribes from Russia - to finance presidential elections - should be held to the same standards of women, who are condemned over sleeveless dresses, nudity and pants-suits:

Trump's wife, possible future First Lady, receives no criticism for nude photoshoots, while Michelle Obama is insulted for bare arms.
