Last night’s debate between John Fetterman and Mehmet Oz was something new for me as a political observer and commentator. Truly, I had never seen anything like it. It was so disastrous and so scandalous, that it might end up being the most consequential debate for a major candidate in modern history.
By the time the hour ended, an exceedingly short time for a debate, it was clear that the Fetterman campaign, Fetterman’s wife, and the mainstream media had been outright lying about just how bad the Democrat’s condition was. To say he could not speak coherently is putting things lightly, and unless you actually watch what transpired, you can’t possibly grasp how bad it was.
Here’s just a small taste.
Now, the Fetterman campaign is desperately searching for an excuse for what transpired, and as of late Tuesday evening, they settled on blaming the closed captioning system. Yes, despite the fact that Fetterman was given a 70-inch television screen to read questions and answers from even though he is not hard of hearing at all, the best his campaign could come up with was to blame that incredible concession for his woes.
That via The New York Post.
“We are thrilled with John’s performance. He did remarkably well tonight – especially when you consider that he’s still recovering from a stroke and was working off of delayed captions filled with errors,” Fetterman communications director Joe Calvello told reporters.
“John won countless exchanges, counter-punched aggressively, and pushed back on Oz’s cruelty and attacks,” Calvello said.

It’s not that simple. The Oprah lovers are not going to vote for a Nazi party just because they liked Oz once. From their perspective.
“Fettermans campaign staff are incompetent liars.”
At least two of them are convicted murderers that he got out of prison.
The Missouri case was wrong in so many ways:
Couldn’t the sitting senator have a ‘medical issue’ and resign, thus creating a vacancy, perhaps to appoint Fedder? Tho I don’t see why this would change anything.
These matters always redounds to the discredit of the media who should be fairly recording events and holding the sleazy cheaters accountable, per the letter of the law and per common decency.
Fetterman was offered two full rehearsals with the captioning system. He did one.
The one was probably a disaster.
Here will be his campaigns spin :
“Fetterman fought courageously through viscous attacks and successfully defending his ideas for the people of PA. Fetterman continues his amazing recovery and will go to Washington and speak truth to power.”
Or some bs similar to that is how they will respond.

Already, I'm seeing comments about how can we trust that the media is reporting anything fairly after seeing Fetterman with our own eyes?
Just look at how NBC's Dasha Burns' own colleagues in journalism are treating her for exposing Fetterman's true condition? You'd think she committed omertà and had to be whacked for her crime by the way they treated her.

Yup. But doctor jilly ain’t in the mix for (p)resident.
On CBS Mornings, they only showed one clip of Fetterman stumbling with his words. CBS has repeatedly said that Trump continues with his election lies about the rigging of the 2020 election. However, when it comes to Fetterman who now claims he supports fracking, CBS doesn’t want to call Fetterman a liar since Fetterman said years ago he was never for fracking.
CBS credibility is at stake.
LOL! Yup. HITH can he even have any ratings? Unions?
His wife’s an extremist - a Marxist who would not be able to be elected on her own. This is another ‘bait and switch’ scam put out by democrats and their butt boys and bimbos in ‘the press’....
Yup! Viva la revolution right? 🐷💩
No John, your inability to think or communicate clearly is at fault. Citizens aren’t electing a teleprompter to represent their interests.
Thanks for correcting me on the sitting PA state senator.
It would be an extra blessing if the after-debate propaganda wakes up some significant number of to voters realize the media is shilling for Democrats. It’s not difficult to see, if they’d only open their mind.
There’s a hope that the media bias on display re the debate will spur media distrust among some who previously did not consider it.
Citizens aren’t electing a teleprompter to represent their interests.
It’s happened 3 times - twice with Obama and once with Biden.
(IF they actually won an election, all that represented “we the people” was the teleprompter).
