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.
All democrats have serious mental issues.
>>Democrats are fine with electing half dead candidates.
Only have as dead as most of their voters.
So he can read, then? Knew a guy like that once - could hardly speak but was taking (and passing) college courses in chemistry. Aphasia, they called it.
Democrat favorite for sure if Jotato opts out in 2024!
Fetterman 24’, even less competent than Joe, and half his age!
He’s the definition of a liberal.
Wait until his spouse is appointed to fill out the term.
John may be the one with the most marbles in the family.
Fetterman is PAs Biden.
I live in PA & many conservatives didn’t care if Fetterman won.
They said Dr. Oz wasn’t conservative.
They didn’t vote.
I worked the polls and there was a low turnout in my area.
Now they’ve complaining about Fetterman.
I can help with that. They are saying "Hey, Uncle Fester, what the hell are you doing in the Senate...and how did you marry Morticia? I thought she was Gomez's wife?"
Creepy Joe / Uncle Fester 2024
.
“Twice the dementia, none of the competence!”
But Mitch would like you to know that it is your fault this guy was elected. Candidate quality matters or something.
In ancient times, an unsavory politician was usually consumed by worms.
Pennsylvania’s best! And he can knuckle your head before you count to four! Ride, daddy, ride!!!!
“ivaruable”?
“ ivaruable”?

LOL — weird typo. Should be ‘variable’.
The despicables need a warm body and a 51st vote
Anyone who voted for him should have realized that they were really voting for his wife.
He had the very same problem when he ran. This latest is just a way of getting rid of him now and replacing him with someone else.
Why does anyone on FR still think there will be any kind of a fair election in 2024?
This is the kind of thing RATs and DS do to keep their puppets in positions.
They are going to replace this guy soon.
He is a FINE specimen for a Democrat. Joe Biden needs to pick him for V.P next time around. Life is a circus.
OZ was a HUGE mistake, and I am sure Ol’ Governor Josh is going to appoint the Commie Concubine to Fester’s seat in 3-2-1. Those are the orders.
