The recent reporting on John Fetterman's incapacity has brought out the cancel-culture impulse from Democrats.
John Fetterman, the current lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania, recently sat down for an interview with Dasha Burns of NBC News.
During the interview, Fetterman used closed captioning on a computer screen so that he could better understand the questions he was asked, an accommodation made necessary due to the serious stroke he suffered approximately five months ago. Yet he still appeared to struggle to interpret the questions and communicate his thoughts during the interview, though he insisted doctors have told him he has "no cognitive damage."
Following their discussion, Burns noted: "[I]n small talk before the interview, without captioning, it wasn’t clear he was understanding our conversation.”
She added, “Myself, my producer and our crew did find that small talk before that captioning was difficult because of those auditory processing issues."
This prompted Gisele Fetterman, John’s wife, to embark on a verbal rampage. She joined Molly Jong-Fast on the cleverly named podcast Fast Politics Pod to discuss her reaction to Burns’ interview with her hubby, during which she implied that Burns should face professional "consequences" for her "ableist" comments.
She stated: "I don’t know how there were not consequences, right? I mean, there are consequences for folks in these positions who are any of the -isms. I mean, she was ableist and that’s what she was in her interview. It was appalling to the entire disability community and, I think, to journalism.”
She went on to excoriate NBC News, saying that it should "have to take accountability" for instances of ableism…which she pronounced "ably-ism." She also suggested that NBC and/or Burns should offer her family-- and the entire "disability community"-- an apology.

How can the Fetterman race be close in the polls?

Some people will vote for socialism no matter what.
When you can tell someone is fat as hell, just by looking at their face, they’re morbidly obese.
Those slobs are a disgrace to the uniform.
This is more cultishness than pure socialism, one of the stages of culture necessary to destroy institutions to usher in a revolution.
Death culture.
Now, you are not allowed to even expect that your political leaders are coherent and ABLE to think for themselves.
You just have to have faith that their staffs, or wives, or party leaders who actually wield controlling influence, will have them take the right decisions.
If you don’t believe this you are an Ableist Bigot!
This gives both Fetterman and Biden outs.
You've never heard, "They would vote for a fence post"?
Fetterwoman’s woman is as dumb as he is.
The pattern, protecting their people under the guise of oppression, while cornering anyone who disagrees with them.
She’ll turn PA into numerous Favelas, like her dump of origin Brazil.
GOP puts up a weak celebrity candidate as his opponent...
We have punched our ticket for the crazy train when we no longer expect persons in leadership positions to be mentally and physically fit.
Paving the way for Joe to drool his way through the ‘24 elections...
Being fed up with -ist and -ism from the left, they can shove it.
Kurt Vonnegut wrote a great short story about this: “Harrison Bergeron”, and a movie was developed from it: “2081”.
Worth a read and a watch.
But their speed from the plane to the ground is phenomenal.
The list of democrat/socialists is long.
They look like Mestizo bowling balls.
