padded shoulders and shoulder boarding are a signal of low power shoulders.

this is basic Shoulderology and one of the pillars of Shoulderist mentality / Shoulder Thought.

make every day traps and delts day.

I like how most of the modern stuff in this is American old money vs new money, and then they have this bit about Trump:

The 1980s was, of course, the decade that gave rise to the showboating mogul Donald Trump — and his personal uniform has remained anchored in this era ever since. Today, Mr. Trump’s square-shouldered suits serve as a central part of his presentation as an unapologetic outsider, waging war on an entrenched elite. When he vows to “drain the swamp,” he’s talking, in part, about ridding Washington of its Brooks Brothers bureaucrats.

Then they go on to Kamala having padded shoulders in her tailoring, too. It's almost like and aren't too different.

They're doing fashion phrenology now?
