“He votes the way Schumer tells him to and that's all he needs to do!”

Fetterman exposes the illusion that the senators think on their own accord and just don't follow Chuckie's orders. Fetterman can't fake it because he can't speak a coherent sentence like his colleagues in the Senate.

Not capable of doing the job. It’s not a charity.

I'd add Feinstein to that list.

Feinstein too and it's becoming a problem because people who don't necessarily pay close attention to politics are noticing they have incapacitated political representatives.

"expect his abilities to improve."

during her 35 plus years as a therapist my wife worked with literally hundreds of stroke patients. The general rule was that after six months, they were at maximum recovery potential. At that point, any further improvements would be minute, at best. Fetterman is at one year from his stroke. He will not be getting any better.

Here is a portion of a 1998 interview Soros did with Steve Kroft on 60 Minutes. The relevant part starts at about 7:30.

Kroft: “My understanding is that you went . . . went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews.”

Soros: “Yes, that’s right. Yes.”

Kroft: “I mean, that’s — that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?”

Soros: “Not, not at all. Not at all. Maybe as a child you don’t . . . you don’t see the connection. But it was — it created no — no problem at all.”

Kroft: “No feeling of guilt?”

Soros: “No.”

Kroft: “For example, that, ‘I’m Jewish, and here I am, watching these people go. I could just as easily be these, I should be there.’ None of that?”

Soros: “Well, of course . . . I could be on the other side or I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away. But there was no sense that I shouldn’t be there, because that was — well, actually, in a funny way, it’s just like in the markets — that if I weren’t there — of course, I wasn’t doing it, but somebody else would — would — would be taking it away anyhow. And it was the — whether I was there or not, I was only a spectator, the property was being taken away. So the — I had no role in taking away that property. So I had no sense of guilt.”

He then states that he does not believe in God when Kroft asks. He said he thinks god was invented by man and not the other way around.

Fetterman ran for office because he wanted the fat salary and the Medical benefits made him run for office. The Marxist Dems wanted him because he is almost robotic and easily controlled.

I am glad his team is hitting back. The only thing that guy is hitting is the floor.

#4: "He's non-functioning, that's his problem in a nutshell."

He's almost a vegetable. Fetterman is one cherry tomato shy of a stew.

I’m sure there are other Trifecta’s....but Biden, Harris, and Fetterman are perfect for each other....

Also makes him the perfect Democrat back bencher.

Oh. That’s ok then. A Senator who can’t do his basic duties. But it’s okay because recovery or something. How about we put half-paralyzed pilots back in the chair? It’s okay because they are in therapy

It’s not like being a Senator is hard, just vote the way they tell you to vote.

They just need a body with rudimentary functionality. Next, they will start electing actual monkeys. They are much cheaper to feed.

The long hours spent on vacation fact finding trips and late nights getting wined and dined is grueling.

Well now that you mention it. We're head towards Idiocracy at hyper speed. We're going to have less qualified white male airline pilots even if it results in a few disastrous plane crashes.

“Auditory processing challenges” means he has trouble understanding what is being said to him. In the clips, Fetterman is having obvious difficulty in choosing words he’s trying to say. He is having trouble with both input and output.

And since most of our thoughts are in the form of words, who is to say that Fetterman even has the ability to think properly? I am not writing this as a joke or a political jab at someone I disagree with. He apparently cannot easily process words

“...if pathetic losers want to make fun of someone who struggles with speech as the result of a stroke”

I’m picturing someone paralyzed by a stroke being entered in an Olympic foot race. Would pointing out the absurdity of the situation make one a ‘pathetic loser’?

“Sometimes when you win, you really lose; and sometimes when you lose, you really win. And sometimes when you win or lose, you actually tie; and sometimes when you tie, you actually win or lose. Winning or losing is all one organic mechanism, from which one extracts what one needs.”

Did he just watch White Men Can't Jump? Reminds me of Gloria as she expounds on winning and losing.
