Pennsylvania Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman struggled to participate in a recent interview with New York magazine, requiring closed captioning technology to understand his interviewer.
Fetterman, who serves as Pennsylvania's lieutenant governor, has struggled with auditory processing and speaking since he suffered a stroke in May. While his campaign has insisted he is on the road to recovery and is fit to serve in the Senate, Fetterman's interview in early October for a New York profile revealed that the Democrat still has difficulty with basic communication. The magazine disclosed that during a video call interview, Fetterman used a closed captioning program to understand questions, reading them in real time.
"Our 50-minute conversation, in which I could see his eyes moving swiftly across his computer screen as he read and responded to my questions in real time, included moments … where it was clear that Fetterman's vexation amplified his communicative challenges," wrote Rebecca Traister, the author of the profile.
Traister described Fetterman as "lucid," "animated," and "eloquent" in the interview, a characterization seemingly contradicted by Traister's subsequent descriptions of Fetterman's expressiveness:
At one point, when we were talking about his work to address crime and gun violence while mayor of Braddock, Fetterman said what sounded like a nonsense word. "To have an actual domicated—" he paused. "Excuse me, domentated—" He paused again, getting frustrated. "Yeah," he added with a small smile, "this is the stroke right here." Then he took a breath. "Documented," he said. "Documented."

Great profile of John Fetterman and his love of criminals and hatred of American energy independence 😂 #pasen pic.twitter.com/LZtnYAfFY0— Matthew Foldi (@MatthewFoldi) October 10, 2022
...and this guy is leading in the polls.....
The media lacks all objectivity.
They protected mindless Joe to get him elected at all costs, including is health and they will do the same for Fetterman.
So does the Biden Administration.
Mental patients are the ideal Dem candidate. Completely under the control of handlers. It’s “mean spirited” to attack them. They can be replaced with another idiot next election.
Biden paved the way. They will just raid nursing homes and mental wards for future elections. Anyone with a working brain wouldn’t be voting D in the first place.
I’ve had 3 strokes
Never once thought of myself as a “victim “ of them
He should have them tattooed on his arms.
The tattoos he has are gross - looks like he’s taping over them.
Low class!!!!
He probably needed them before the stroke too. I think he might be better suited for a GM assembly line, or pushing a broom
Oz can win this race based on a great debate. A great debate against this person should be a layup. So I guess we’ll see.
I can only hope he has some good people behind the scenes helping him on this. Should be easy to throw a few debate curveballs and pounce.
Because OZ is a fraudulent douchebag.
The PA senate race is an abject joke.
Neither of these turds belong anywhere near the Senate.
This is literally a race asking the voters, do you want your crap sandwich with or without corn.
This without any question the biggest joke of an election in my lifetime.
No matter who wins, PA and America loses...
Disgusting and despicable.
There is no “WIN” in this race...
PA is getting a Crap Sandwich for a Senator either way.. only question is will it be with or without corn.
PA and and America lose on election day, regardless which of these two turds gets elected.
They WANT us to think he’s leading in the polls, so we don’t question the coming vote fraud.
At 10:30PM election night Donald Trump was leading Pennsylvania by over 15%. I went to sleep because it looked like it was all over.
I got up early only to watch as Biduuuhhhn suddenly got 4 million new votes at 4AM. It was THAT SUDDEN...
The stroke is not even the most concerning thing about Slob Fetterman.
Adjusted Poll Average Oct 10: Oz +2.2
Polls Underestimated GOP support by: 5.9

Tucker Carlson did a nice piece a few weeks ago that reviewed Fetterman — he lived with his parents forever, survived on an allowance, was a no-show mayor of a terrible place in PA which got worse while he was a mayor, has horrible policies on all kinds of issues — Tucker really showed Fetterman to be an unbelievable unattractive candidate.
And then Tucker said, with apologies for bringing up a tragedy in the life of a candidate, Tucker mentioned the stroke. How non-functional Fetterman is. His trouble speaking, comprehending, or handling audio input. He is severely compromised.
He was awaful before. The stroke made him worse than awful.
We are supposed to believe that he may be leading int he polls.
There are no words.
This is an ongoing condition which will get aggravated by new health and mental events, us old people know
If this pile of dung gets to the Senate, will he insists on “reasonable accommodation” like getting 10 minutes to ask questions while others get 5, a teleprompter, and some type of sling to lug around that 15 pound lipoma hidden by his filthy hoody?
