Fetterman on Why He Declined Debate, Whether There Will Be One Before Election: I’ll ‘Engage’ in Talks When There’s ‘Serious Conversation’
Breitbart ^ | 08/31/2022 | Ian hatchett

During an interview aired on Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “11th Hour,” Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. and U.S. Senate candidate John Fetterman (D) responded to a question on why he turned down his Republican opponent, Dr. Mehmet Oz’s invitation to debate and if the two will debate before the election by stating he’ll “engage” when the Oz campaign has “a serious conversation” but “right now, the fact that they have chosen to have a deeply unserious campaign to just ridicule somebody that is just recovering from a stroke.”

Host Stephanie Ruhle asked, “You turned down Dr. Oz’s invitation to debate. What made you come to that decision? And do you think you’ll debate him before the election?”

Mastriano, Oz, and Lisa Scheller signs are now in my yard. Call your county Republican or GOP office today to get signs. Sometimes they will even come and and put them in your yard if you ask.

Your sign might influence a neighbor or someone driving by.

“serious conversation”

He shouldn’t put himself down like that.
I’m sure if he tried he could sound like he is smarter than a fifth grader.
Same with most of the dim.

I don’t think he’s in great health, and he’s probably intending to win...step into the Senate for a year or two...missing 50-percent of the action, and be retired by December 2024.

That said...there’s probably two or three current US senators in bad health, and worse than him.

It means the guy is a Marxist, and until Oz agrees to climate change, no more guns, paying off student loans, defunding police and teaching CRT he (Oz) is not serious. Furthermore since Fetterman lived with his parents until he was 50 he is beyond reproach and would make a wonderful senator even though he has had a stroke and has no energy to do the job.

He cannot serve in the US Senate, which is a great big debating club, if he can’t even debate mono a mono with his rival for the seat. Besides, the constant leakage of sh!t coming out his ears is very off-putting to colleagues and underlings.

Dr Oz is a physician...a physician affiliated with one of the world's best hospitals. He has unique credibility in commenting on the state of this nearly brain dead man.

It means that he has heart issues and suffered a stroke.

He might be unable to speak clearly or walk normally, so he can't be seen next to Dr. Oz in a debate format.

Seems that someone does not have thick enough skin to be in the Rough and Tumble world of politics.😉

I believe it is a “serious conversation” if this freak clown Fetterman can stand at a Podium and put coherent sentences together for a 90 minute DEBATE. It’s the least he can do for the Voters of PA.

Fetterman just needs to remain alive until Election Day. Then he can pass on the 6-year seat to another DEM by stepping down.

This is the new Dem excuse/strategy. My opponent isn’t serious. So I won’t give them the satisfaction.
