Left: French chore coat (just one of many regional variations)

Right: LL Bean barn coat

If the lore is to be believed, the American barn coat was originally called a hunting coat (or LL Bean Maine Warden jacket) bc it was used for hunting. It was renamed "barn coat" to appeal to urban customers.

Almost a year into this presidency, Trump voters have gotten nothing except the Big Beautiful Bill, which was usual Republican politics of giving tax cuts to the rich and slashing social spending for the poor. Housing remains unaffordable, cost of living is rising, and manufacturing jobs fell.
