WASHINGTON, DC — Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman checked himself into Walter Reed Medical Center in the nation's capital to seek treatment for clinical depression after coming to the realization that he was a member of the United States Congress.
"It just suddenly dawned on him," said a member of Fatterman's staff under the condition of anonymity. "This entire time, ever since winning the election in November, he thought he was on some type of fun fantasy trip. Once he realized he was now just another slimy politician, he got kinda bummed out."
Already struggling with the continuing effects of a stroke he suffered while on the campaign trail, Fetterman's condition has only declined, with those close to him fearing for his health. "He got so depressed and despondent that he started dressing in his even more casual hoodies and sweatpants," said another concerned staffer. "When he started wearing his sleeveless hoodies, we knew things were getting worse."
The Senator's wife, Gisele Barreto Fetterman, also expressed concern for her husband's well-being. "If anything were to happen to him, I don't know what I would do," she said as she carried boxes of her own belongings into Fetterman's office in the U.S. Capitol. "This is completely off-topic, but is it standard practice for spouses to be appointed in place of incapacitated members of Congress?"
At publishing time, Dr. Oz had also checked himself into the hospital for depression after seeing who he had lost the election to.
Compete satire!
He would recognize that when he was a partial functioning human being.
Now he’s a completely malfunctioning human. And a fully functional Democrat.
I know this is the Bee, but, in reality, he’s probably depressed because he finally realized his wife wants his job.
ROTFL!
His “wife” is a real biatch. A damn anti-American political activist. She was born in Brazil so she is not an American as we know it. She’s a U.S. citizen and that’s about it. Anybody can be a U.S. citizen these days. All you have to do is walk up to the border with your hand out and wearing a hundred dollar Laker or Dodgers hat.
Uncle Festerman
He’d probably use it if he could get his hands on it right now.
Fetterman has had depression for years and wanted to be Senator because he knew his Medical Bills will be -horrendous.
Now he gets all his Med Bills paid for and gets a large salary at the same time at tax payers expense.
