At a rally in Grand Island, Nebraska on Monday night, President Donald Trump revealed he was wearing a suit from Jos. A. Bank, which ranges between $250 and $580. This marks a departure from his long-standing association with the luxury Italian brand Brioni, whose suits typically cost between $5,500 and $16,200. Trump had previously worn Brioni suits since hosting The Apprentice in the 2000s. The revelation sparked discussion on social media about Trump's fashion choices and his previous claims of exclusively wearing high-end brands like Brioni.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
