Well, his wife and ‘friends’ didn’t nurse him back to health when he needed it - they ran him for office because it helped THEIR power positions.

Most of us would find that depressing. The extra stress might kill Fetterman... and he knows - deep in his heart that none of these people give a damn if he lives or dies.

He ruined his stroke recovery by staying in the race. He had a small window of time to devote himself to recovery, and he blew it. Blame his crazed wife too. I blame her more. An ambitious illegal migrant a-hole.

It just seems that it’s not right that an anti American so called senator should be treated at a hospital where so many American heroes with serious battle wounds are treated

Clinical depression? His or his constituents?

I agree.
His wife should have cared for him instead of pushing him. He’s likely safer where he’s at.

Why did he run, doctors said his condition was not likely to improve.

I call fraud in his “election” to the Senate. The idiots who put him in there were in on the fraud. He was known to have had mental deficiency and yet he was allowed to run and “win”. I’d be pissed about that. But I guess democrats have no problem running mental deficients for high office. Just look at who’s in the Oval Office.

No argument from me on that point. I’m not anywhere near PA so I have no idea how Oz or Fetterman were received by the local voters. I think the long period of voting (weeks) meant that many votes were already cast before the only debate.

Could make things more difficult for Schumer.

That was always the plan. For him to resign and the governor to appoint his wife who was not electable on her own.

If I am the governor, I have a Senate seat that is worth a tremendous amount to powerful people. I’m not wasting it on a nobody.

Assigning the wife just takes her out of the picture for his care.

I see no reason to feel sorry for him.

He’s a brain damaged ogre with mental problems … which means he’s a perfect representative for his Pennsylvania constituents.

I feel bad for him. My grandmother suffered a stroke, and it was so hard to watch her struggle. Prayers to our dear Lord that he will overcome this. Amen.

Another fine example of Democrat voting

The guy couldn’t even speak

He belonged in a hospital 🏥

Why does that remind me of someone else?

Whom could it be?

🤔🤔🤔

Well, I don’t think his wife had much choice about coming here. But, she could do more good sticking to toy and food drives, compared to the damage her politics would do as a Senator.

I truly feel very sad for this man. He is being used. I hope he can find some help and comfort, if not improvement with his issues, ASAP.

In my vision she was behind him whispering into his ear. Takes out two at once.
