Senator John Fetterman

Strokes and depression, oh my.

PA’s junior senator checked himself into Walter Reed for treatment of ‘clinical depression.’ Since he is getting inpatient care, you know it had to be serious. Good thing the Senate has platinum EAP benefits.

This comes one week after he needed evaluation for getting lightheaded at a Dem retreat - deemed not a stroke.

I hope he has a speedy recovery.

He looks a lot better already...

Fetterman's Hospitalization Is Reminder Media Lied To Get Him Elected

Interesting analysis of media treatment of Feinstein's obvious decline vs Fetterman's incapacitation, and Duckworth's disability by contrast. Gross, what partisanship does to integrity. So many victims! Fetterman, not the least.

Fetterman won because of what McConnell called a ‘candidate-quality’ issue. Even with failing the debate, he still won by 5 points. The Republicans should have swept the 2022 mid-terms. It goes well beyond the media. But, isn’t Fox News the most watched cable opinion channel anyway?

Replacing Fetterman after his stroke would have been the rational thing to do. Josh Shapiro should be working his Rolodex. As one man said “I’ve got this thing and it’s fucking golden.”
