Pennsylvania Democrat senate candidate and stroke victim John Fetterman finally released his medical record after weeks on the campaign trail spent struggling to speak in short and sometimes nonsensical outbursts.
There’s just one problem: that isn’t his medical record.
Actually, there are at least a couple more problems, but we’ll get to those in a sec.
The first and most obvious problem is… those are not his medical records, and you’d have to be a fool or a member of the press to believe they are. But I repeat myself. What the campaign released — here, in PDF form — is a one-page letter from Fetterman’s primary physician, Dr. Clifford Chen of Pittsburgh’s UPMC.
It’s basically a doctor’s note assuring voters that although he’s been sick, little Johnny can come to class today.
He just might not fully understand what the teacher says, according to Dr. Chen’s note:
"He spoke intelligently without cognitive deficits. His speech was normal and he continues to exhibit symptoms of an auditory processing disorder which can come across as hearing difficulty. Occasional words he will “miss” which seems like he doesn’t hear the word but it is actually not processed properly."
That letter doesn’t exactly inspire confidence for anyone who’s actually seen the candidate try and campaign.
That’s why last week, during his first post-stroke interview, Fetterman required “a large computer screen with closed captioning” to understand what NBC correspondent Dasha Burns was asking. “In small talk before my interview,” Burns said afterward, “it wasn’t clear he understood what I was saying.”

“and his blood pressure was 116/82 which is verging on pre-hypertension”
Since when in 116/82 verging on hypertension? Is pre-hypertension really a thing? I for one have never heard of it.
If he only has a pulse he qualifies as the perfect “D” candidate,
‘cause demon raat representatives are not allowed to think anyway. They are to do as they are told by the toad Pelosi and the DNC masters who work for the ‘great reset’ gods.
So, Festerman got a work-release note?!?
I used to forge these with my mom’s signature on them, “Signed Epstein’s Mother”!!
That’s
“Signed, Epstein’s doctor”
It’s FetterWOMAN.
Fetterman has an “auditory processing disorder”
Democrats don’t listen to voters anyway
LOL, true!
Reminds me of the Welcome Back Kotter episode, where he gets the “sick excuse” letter signed “Epstein’s mother”.....
I am sure uncle fester is on some serious blood pressure and cholesterol meds
Total Bull S--t. A reporter from the leftist media that interviewed him said the exact opposite and is now under attack from the rest of the media. She truthfully, explained the use of closed captioning for the interview so he could understand the questions. She truthfully said his answers were not normal and disjointed.
Her career is over.
The Senate is meant for debate. PA voters should be asking themselves how “Mr. Lump On My Neck Nobody Wants To Discuss” will handle public debate with his “disability.”
Will he actually take an active part in discussions or will he just sit there and look confused?
After thought: why didn’t the Dr’s note discuss his lump?
Agree!
Fetterman is a Bidung-like vegetable but a resting heart rate of 80 is not a “bit high” (especially for a fat slob) and BP of 116/82 is far from pre-hypertension
More like age 60
Yes it is but it’s more like 130+/90+. I deal with it and am happy with todays 116/82
