Why does Steve Kornacki wear the same camel-colored khakis EVERY fucking day?

This is OP's idea of a makeover:

Because he and the State Farm guy are a couple.

I'm willing to bet Kornacki gets laid far more often than Opie.

I'm sure he has multiples of the same thing. He also wears pretty much the same tie and shirts and blue jacket (when at the desk only). I think he just doesn't care about clothes and so wears the same thing every day. Did you think the same thing of Steve Jobs and Michael Kors? They did/do it too.

I do it too but I'm not in show business.

Because that's his look. Most guys have a go to look that they feel comfortable in.

It's not really any different than wearing a uniform every day to work. Rachel Maddow does it too.

One of those str8 male clones on msnbc makes fun of our boy because he doesn't wear a jacket the better to wave his arms about alot. Is it that Brian guy?

Rachel Maddow doesn't get up from her desk, and she does have rotating black jackets. At least Steve could try a different color khaki.

Because he’s a major fucking dork.

Is Steve attached or fucking about or both?

Rachel needs to get her neck fixed.

He's a cute nerd R10. Def bf material.

[quote]Why does Steve Kornacki wear the same camel-colored khakis EVERY fucking day?

Because he can. Or do you fancy some shit like this, OP?

He doesn't warsh his pants, either.

Steve constantly smells like ASS.

No, I do not, Mary R14.

Watch CNN if you want to see well dressed gays

Lemony

He's probably on the spectrum.

Can’t stand him or his pants. I turn the channel when he’s on. He seems like a trump lover.

Where has Nicolle been? She just got her show extended and she goes AWOL?

Kornacki wants the focus to be on what he's saying and showing on his screen, not on his clothes. Wearing nearly the same thing every day makes it simpler. I don't mind it. He has a cute geek vibe going.

I bet he's a boxer brief guy.

R19 nailed it. He is on the spectrum and cannot tolerate variety in food, clothing, etc. He is the type that you can give only two choices, anything more overwhelms him, e.g. "Where do you want to go to diner" is a bad idea. "Would you like to go to A or B?" is how to ask.

[quote] Kornacki wants the focus to be on what he's saying

If so, then why does he wave his arms around like a windmill?

R23, he has posted about eating at Qdoba a LOT. It definitely seems he has his lanes that are his comfort zone.

He's still a super cute nerd either way.

[quote] He's still a super cute nerd either way.

Agreed. And enthusiastic, perhaps also in bed.

[quote]Why does Steve Kornacki wear the same camel-colored khakis EVERY fucking day?

OP: Thank you for addressing this topic. I have noticed the same thing with Kornacki. Sheesh...the same pair of khakis every damn day! What's wrong with him? He's on camera for god's sake. Surely, MSNBC pays him enough to buy another pair of pants--or two!

Kornacki...you're gay! Get with the program! I don't like to shop either, but I have more than one damn pair of pants--and I'm not on TV.

[quote] Rachel Maddow [...] does have rotating black jackets.

She does? What does that mean? Different shade of... black? Different cut? Either way I actually think it works for her. She looks good in this black jacket look.

I don't know why, but I am with OP on this one. I know it doesn't matter, but Kornacki is almost offensively bland. The haircut, the no-copay glasses, the slacks... He seems to be trying hard to look "bizarro gay".

[quote] no-copay glasses

R28 is merciless.

Rachel dresses like an old Eye-talian lady.

He should date Nate Silver. They’d probably cum talking about the demographics of precincts in Philadelphia or the reliability of a Rasmussen survey.

He can analyze my statistics any day.

I don't think it is official until next week R21. I think they are giving her time off because besides her 2 hour show she will be covering the convention.

R21 I am wondering if Nicole took extra time off to marry her boy toy, Michael Schmidt, who is 11 years younger than her.

"why is he wearing the same thing every day??!!!!??" screamed dl'ers from the boxers and tshirt they've worn since saturday.

Wow, you learn something new every day. Wallace and her husband "publicly supported the legalization of same-sex marriage in an amicus curiae brief submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court."

Being a fashion-unaware numbers nerd IS his look.

Wallace is no longer married and is dating NYT reporter Michael Schmidt.

[quote][R19] nailed it. He is on the spectrum and cannot tolerate variety in food, clothing, etc. He is the type that you can give only two choices, anything more overwhelms him, e.g. "Where do you want to go to diner" is a bad idea. "Would you like to go to A or B?" is how to ask.

He seems like the type that would prefer a more dominant partner who takes control of situations and make most of the decisions for him.

Yes we know R38.

The obsession with numbers and lack of emotion spells Aspie.

R20 Agree. Kornacki constantly gets optimistic about Trump. He showed plenty of criticism of HRC in elevating Trump in 2016. He and Chuck Todd show the same agendas.

[quote] He and Chuck Todd

Are you saying he and Chuck?

I have mixed feelings about the MSNBC house republicans - good that they aren't supporting the orange turd but that isn't a very hard moral line in the sand and they were fine with the anti-gay shit (and racism , sexism, xenophobia etc) for far too long (it would have been brave and probably cost them careers if they had been openly pro-gay in the 90s and the 8 years of the Bush administration). As I see it, the MSNBC House Republicans come in two distinct flavors - the professional political consultants and/or former Bush staff (Wallace, Schmidt, Steele) or the Neocon Never Trumpers (Kristol, Boot, Rubin). Neither group had any ideological affinity for the guns, god & gays crazies or the anti-immigrant xenophobes but both groups thought that they could pimp the rubes indefinitely so long as they either benefited financially (the political hacks) or ideologically (the West is the Best Warmongers). I don't know if that makes the hacks or the keyboard warriors more or less unctuous but they don't deserve any medals for doing the absolute ethical minimum.

PS. There is some new Never Trumper out with a book that titled "It was all a Lie" (Stuart Stevens) who seems to be auditioning for the Pride of Place in the MSNBC never-trumper pagent lineup. At least he is honest and admits that all the pabulum about how "I didn't leave the party - the party left me" is just self-justifying delusions - anyone with a minimal amount of intellectual honesty has to admit it was all about raw political power in service of an ever smaller circle of rich elites. Fuck em all...

PPS - I think Jennifer Rubin is just a pure polemicist - I agree with everything she lambasts Trump and the Republicans now but then I remember how she had the exact same schtick during most of the Bush years except then she was defending shrub and his wars and attacking liberals with same zeal. Remarkable but scary/unsettling talent...

Shut the fuck up OP or you may spook him into wearing those crewneck sweaters over a dress shirt again.

Rachel grew up in an era when newscasters wore the same jacket every day

Love this guy. It's assuring & encouraging to see young gay men on TV who are concerned with legitimate intellect. I think Mo Rocca's like this, too. Both he and Steve are primarily focused on their substance rather than looking cute while they do it. They bypass--and without demanding the fanfare for doing so--the adolescent need for approval about shit like looking youthful & preened. Thomas Roberts, Don Lemon, David Muir, all posers who wish they had as much casual, authentic cool as these 2 guys.

OP. Khaki is a dull brownish-yellow colour yet you claim it's a camel-color.

That's nothing OP, remember when he used to wear bowties?

[quote] He seems like a trump lover.

Utterly fucking ridiculous, R20. What are you, on crack?

We're not on TV, R35, stupid bitch!

R47, boy are you wrong about Mo Rocca. He definitely pays attention to what he wears.

R50 He had a permanent hard -on for trump in 2016. What are your eyes and ears missing?

R51, agreed, he does. But his style is his style. Mo isn't concerned with fitting himself into any of the deemed acceptable gay uniforms. Vanity that promotes a person's individual qualities, sure. Vanity that begs for attention by following the current prescribed trends set forth by shallow, materialistic Instagtam gays, nope.

Someone posted here once that Steve has a bf, but he seems pretty private, so I doubt there's any confirmation of that.

You can't see because he's rarely standing on-camera but I get the impression Chris Hayes wears blue jeans every day.

Really, R52? Because daily he's reporting news against Dump, including a recent poll from which he calculated Biden would get something like 400 electoral votes to Dump's 125.

In fact, every day, he's reporting daily on negative Dump stuff. So you're an idiot.

If he took off the tie & opened a few buttons on his shirt he would be wearing the same outfit the Professor wore every day on Gilligan’s Island. Maybes it’s an homage.

[quote] You can't see because he's rarely standing on-camera but I get the impression Chris Hayes wears blue jeans every day.

True. Chris wears dark jeans. In one of his live town halls recently he wore them, and he had quite nice quads and a healthy package.

Kornacki is definitely a Republican, or at least he used to be. I don't like him very much. His manic reporting in front of those screens makes me want to scream. But it's when he's behind a desk that his right-wing leanings come out. It's the whole way he frames the argument--it's so very Republican.

Sexless and unattractive. He has a really weird, phony quality about him that really grates.

[quote] Kornacki is definitely a Republican, or at least he used to be.

Proof of this ridiculous claim, please, R59. Otherwise BULLSHIT.

If this is your type of guy, Steve is the creme de la creme of this certain type.

But that type is not for everyone. I can understand those who would be unimpressed by him.

Here's his coming out story from Salon (2011). No mention of his political leanings

ZERO evicence he's a Republican.

R62 exactly - different people got different types. He's definitely my type, slim, cute, glasses, a bit nerdy, not too masculine

Log Cabin GOPer

Prove it, R66.

I worked in TV news as an anchorman for decades and decided early on I looked best in a navy blazer. So I had a closet full of them. I changed my shirt colors and ties, but never varied from the blazer. It looked more professional, in my opinion, and made dressing for work very easy. But my point always was that my outfit didn't matter as much as the stories I was presenting. And viewers never commented on my fashion choice.

I don't know if Kornacki is color blind, but many color blind people prefer to keep their wardrobe fairly simple and consistent since color matching can be difficult. Again, I'm not assuming anything; simply, some people to like to keep personal details private.

I think Steve's an aspie.

And a Republican.

A touch of autism? Maybe. Republican? Absolutely no sign of that; it's made up. He's adorkable.

With my great HD television, I am curious as to why I haven’t yet seen a pee stain on those light khakis.

His outfit is his trademark. He'd look silly in a suit.

Because Khakis really attract the ladies OP.

R75, cute pic.

Like much of the rest of the cable media, he wants to stand at the board calling a horserace. Want to see pee stains on his khakis? He may do so trying to show the excitement of Trump rallying from behind.

Because Rachel had a thick but long neck and a small sharp face she does need a necklace or some round earrings because without them she looks a bit like a turtle. Otherwise, she is not an ugly lesbian.

Besides that ring she always wears, Rachel does not do jewelry.

Those sneakers Kornacki wears betray the fact that he is still emotionally juvenile.

Zzzzzzzzzz, R77.

Because they go with just about everything and he doesn’t have to think about what to wear?

Because he's a nerd, and because he needs a friend -- perhaps a female friend (definitely not a boyfriend or partner -- a partner or boyfriend may buy him a pair of trousers but NEVER tell him how to dress) -- to suggest that he widen his choice of trousers.

Excellent advice I just gave.^^^^^ Never tell your boyfriend how to dress. Instant relationship killer.

He'd be cute in a potato sack. Or maybe he should just wear boxer briefs or a jockstrap?

R72, let's just say Groton is a very small town.

R84, he might be on the spectrum, but he's obviously functioning fine and is still adorkable. In some way, it makes him more endearing if anything.

R85, I agree. His eccentricities are hardly deal breakers. And yes, he is adorkable in person. ;)

NIce that you've been able to encounter him in person.

I'll bet that all of his underwear matches as well.

R88, maybe he goes commando.

Nah, that doesn't seem to be his vibe. It would be fun to peel them off of him.

[quote]....thick but long neck and a small sharp face she does need a necklace or some round earrings because without them she looks a bit like a turtle.

Wonder is wearing earrings and a necklace would do anything for #MoscowMitch?

Definitely gotten Spectrum from him, he'll guest host a show and then take off the jacket and roll up the sleeves when he goes to his "big board" in the same show. And to whoever says proves he's a Republican, watching him since the last election is all I need to know it.

I want Steve Kornacki in me, quite deeply.

Chris Hayes seems like the type who always has skid marks in his underwear.

[quote] And to whoever says proves he's a Republican, watching him since the last election is all I need to know it.

So you have no proof, other than your impressions. Well, my impression is that he's not a Republican. So there--both are merely impressions and not facts.

What do you want, a copy of his Voter Registration Card, Dear?

He started his career off working for a Republican.

He got noticeably excited in the last election whenever he talked about Trump's chances. He also practically had an orgasm on air when he thought Trump was going to have sports stars at the Republican convention in 2016 (which never happened).

He always asks questions of Democratic politicians and pundits that suggest he's a Republican.

Is that enough?

Nice microphone placement, Steve. I wish he'd update his wardrobe but like an earlier post mentioned, Rachel wears the same outfits week after week. Steve is a nerd (I love nerds!) and I think he does a great job but he needs to slow down a bit. He talks way too fast. He doesn't seem like the dating kind for some reason.

I would so let him fuck me.

r99, don't bother, he has a spastic clumsy stroke.

The way he frames questions when he hosts is what proves he a Republican. He asks questions from their point of view. Particularly when it comes to anything to do with being black or the black experience. Some of his guests have had to school him and I witnessed one that was absolutely embarrassing for him, left him stammering because it was so obvious he was coming from a conservative, almost racist mindset.

On Morning Joe this morning talking about polls and how Biden is ahead by almost ten points , he focused on the only poll, from CNN that had Trump behind by only four points.

Yeah, R96, that would be proof, apart from Kornacki stating explicitly whether or not he was a Republican.

[quote] He always asks questions of Democratic politicians and pundits that suggest he's a Republican.

No, R97, that's not enough. Again, that's your impression. Every time I see him, he's enthusiastically talking about Biden's 10-point-or-more lead over Dump in the polls, how Biden will get 400 electoral votes and Dump 125...so, to me, Darlings, that doesn't seem Republican.

Can we put this tired subject to bed and stick to the fucking topic?

He seems like a nice enough guy but whenever he's on I switch channels. The flailing arms syndrome is too annoying...as for the clothes I always think of Sears or K-Mart when I see what he's wearing

The flailing arms, the on-the-spectrum love of numbers, and those ubiquitous sand-colored khakis, the last of which makes me think he's an Aspie.

He needs a Nordstrom personal shopper that could set him up with a wardrobe that's as comfortable as what he's wearing, but more professional.

The LAST thing he needs is a personal shopper. Steve has a brand. Folks here don't like it. That he shuns ridiculous slavery to fashion trends is what makes he stand out from the Davids and the Gios and the Matts and the rest of them. That's what makes he hotter than any of the pretty ones.

Please...he's wearing the adult equivalent of Garanimals, he needs to grow up.

Maddow needs a Nordstrom personal shopper that could set her up with a wardrobe that's as comfortable as what she's wearing, but more professional. More... New York.

Completely agree R107 !

[quote] That he shuns ridiculous slavery to fashion trends

I'll say he doesn't, R107. Ridcukous slavery t fashion trends? You're making it sound like we're all wearing Alexander McQueen. He needs to stop shopping at the Gap, STAT.

"I'll say he does, [R107].

I hope he did laundry over the weekend. Kornacki had on the same camel-colored khakis again thus morning.

[quote]I hope he did laundry over the weekend. Kornacki had on the same camel-colored khakis again thus morning.

He has 25 pairs.

I hope he wears bikini briefs.

What are the odds of that, R115? He probably has 60 pairs of the same-colored Gap boxers.

[R31] Philadelphia precincts are called "divisions." Both Steve and Nate know this, of course. They are both into baseball and sports, so it does seem like a match made in heaven.

Steve is way too cute for Nate Silver. I'm guessing he has multiples of the same pair of light blue boxers as well.

[quote] They are both into baseball and sports,

Isn't baseball sports?

R118 he looks more like a tighty whitey guy to me.

God, I hope not, R120. Grown men in tighty whities is such a turnoff.

Underoos perhaps?

Cutie Steve is wearing his uniform and working the big board today. What is the peach colored strap he wears on his left wrist?

R123, He broke his wrist in a bicycling accident. I imagine it is a brace.

I volunteer to take his khakis off and check what type of underwear he wears.

Steve has branched out to a light blue shirt today and a burgundy tie. But he is still wearing the same khakis and shoes, of course. The wrist strap is also now blue and white instead of the pink/peach from before. And he's still adorkable of course.

Steve is that nerdy friend that you have sort of a crush on but never tell anybody about. One night, you get wasted, and decide to let him have you if he wants. He is too scared to make a move and neither of you ever speak of it again.

and conservative

Don't MSNBC, but this guy sure is cute. I like a skinny nerd. I hope he's nice too, that always makes a guy hotter.

Would love to see their sex video.

R130, that pic, from five years ago, appears to be his cousin. Guillame Ramonas. See the post on April 25, 2015.

Doesn't matter. I'd still like to see their sex video.

Steve is still working. He seems to be there at all hours of the day and night. So cute.

Who is his boyfriend/partner?

Cutie Steve is subbing in for Brian Williams tonight (and, hopefully, all week).

At 11PM, he'll put a lot of people to sleep.

The guy at R130 is not Steve's cousin.

He's a cute guy who is on Grindr near the East Village all the time.

Not sure if they were dating or fucking five years ago, but he is currently on Grindr.

Well, hit him up, R137, and see what you can find out for us!

It’s so annoying how he talks about polling like it is commentating sports event. I guess it’s his way of bringing energy to something that’s dry but damn, it comes across as pretty ridiculous

whats the guys grindr profile named? I want to stalk him...

He spits when he talks. Gross.

[quote] whats the guys grindr profile named? I want to stalk him...

The Big Board.

[quote] ... appears to be his cousin. Guillame Ramonas.

R131, if a guy whose surname is Kornacki has a cousin named Guillame Ramonas, his family reunions must be like a U.N. assembly.

How has there never been any tea on him? Is he asexual? Not even a picture with another guy who could potentially be his BF.

There were articles about him coming out and that he had a BF. Most of the info about his personal life has been removed from the internet.

Wait - what's this "wiglet" someone mentioned? Is that not his real hair?

He has a passion for his chosen career. Being on the political track, he wants to be one step in front of his viewers. In 2016, that would have been predicting trump. So he gets excited about unforeseen outcomes and wants to be on the cutting edge. That is why he emphasizes repug success. Not because he backs their policies. Yeah

For you Steve Kornacki fans he has an election special show on Sunday Oct 25 at 10pm EDT on MSNBC.

Pass

The cum stains aren't as visible as they would be on darker colors.

Miss, with all due respect I have my own problems.

He's going to fry the tubes of my telly tonite spazzing out in front of The Board!

Kornacki's ass seems to be getting bigger and bigger.

[quote]The cum stains aren't as visible as they would be on darker colors.

That's why I wear them, too.

Steve in his military grade khakis again tonight. Will someone please buy this boy some dress pants? He's on tv not going fly fishing in Scotland.

He has womanly hips, but otherwise I think he's a cutie-pie.

He hates making a decision in the morning what to wear.

He's still a Republican hack. Look at the way he's calling the returns tonight. He's so much MORE excited when Trump gets good results.

He needs an exercise program he's getting a spare tire. A better haircut would help.

I like the spare tire! He's too hyper, though.

LOL Steve is NO Republican. He gets stoked by the process.
