Democrat Senator Fetterman Left With ‘Serious Mental’ Issues, Can’t Understand What People Are Saying Following Stroke
Daily Wire ^ | 10 Feb 23 | Ryan Saavedra

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has been left with “serious mental health” issues and often cannot understand the words that others are saying to him following the stroke that nearly killed him last year.

The New York Times reported that Fetterman has to use live audio-to-text transcription for everything that he does.

The report said that Fetterman’s struggles are significantly worse when he is under any kind of stress.

Fetterman has indicated that when he’s under stress, trying to understand what other people are saying is like “trying to make out the muffled voice of the teacher in the ‘Peanuts’ cartoon, whose words could never be deciphered,” the report said.

The report comes following Fetterman’s hospitalization this week after feeling lightheaded at a Democrat Senate retreat.

Fetterman’s staff claimed that doctors said that he did not have another stroke and that they were checking for signs of seizures.

The report noted that the stroke last year has taken a “very real psychological toll” on him and that he has “had to come to terms with the fact that he may have set himself back permanently by not taking the recommended amount of rest during the campaign.”

Fetterman’s campaign released a statement Friday evening claiming that medical tests from his most recent health episode came back negative.

“A few minutes ago, Senator John Fetterman was discharged from The George Washington University Hospital,” the statement said. “In addition to the CT, CTA, and MRI tests ruling out a stroke, his EEG test results came back normal, with no evidence of seizures.”

“John is looking forward to spending some time with his family and returning to the Senate on Monday,” the statement added.

Democrats and the media worked together to hide Fetterman's condition.

Election fraud.

Democrats are fine with electing half dead candidates.

Probably won’t impact his ability to vote for liberal policies (might actually help)

Hide his condition? Anyone with a brain could see he was very sick.

Way to go, morons.

You mean he’s worse?
I saw the debate and any question that couldn’t be answered with a single word, he read out stock answers.
It was humerous to hear him answer in regards to a question about minimum wage, “I support abortion” Humerous, if we weren’t heading into WW III.

Fetterman relies on a tablet to transcribe what is being said to him. His hearing issues are ivaruable and can get worse when he is in a stressful or unfamiliar situation. He has described it as trying to make out the muffled voice of the teacher in the “Peanuts” cartoon, whose words are difficult/impossible to understand.

Here’s a sample of the Peanuts’ teacher’s voice:

I can almost feel sorry for the guy. Almost.

Exactly, to me elections fraud doesn’t have to be stealing votes.

It can also be controlling the main stream media and propagandizing people to vote a certain way by distorting, withholding or lying about facts,

That a good proportion of Americans are so gullible to the MSM is another issue.

Echoes of Hunter’s laptop from hell.

What a pack of “normists” and “Stroke-o-phobes!”

Next thing you’ll be writing is that people in persistant vegetative states shouldn’t be allowed to vote (with the aid of a friend or relative - same as Woodrow Wilson after HIS stroke), participate in team sports, be funded for any and all technical medical support required for them to live at home and be mainstreamed in the job of their choice. Vegophobes! Haters! Bigots!

Dems lov this guy! Brain dead morons like him and Diane Feinstein just push the voting button they are told to. And they don’t tie up the floor with speeches or needless debate.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they try to put more obedient slabs of meat into the Senate.

They spiked the Clinton-Lewinsky story back in the mid-1990s if it wasn’t for alternative media.

His voters have mental issues so it’s all in balance.

In other words, fetterman is the epitome of a liberal progressive with the added bonus of having the perfect cover for NOT listening or acknowledging any constituents that aren’t. No wonder he “won”.

Most likely the fraud in Filthadelphia and Shitsberg elected uncle fester. Still, not quite as bad a Delaware keeping Joey in Senate for 50 years. But PA is trying......

It’s interesting to watch how the Dems are showing really bad signs of decay, whether it is dementia, maladies of stroke(s) or mental illness.

And it won't be fixed any time soon...

Democrats sweep special elections, affirming first Pa. House majority in 12 years Democrats have won three special elections for Pennsylvania’s state House, which means they officially control the chamber after a month-long impasse with Republicans.
