I’m not picking on Fetterman because he had a stroke. I’m picking on him because he’s a complete and utter fraud.

He’s trying to pretend to be the vanguard of “the working class”, wearing hoodies and carhardt jackets and showing his sleeve tattoos and talking about the struggle of the blue collar people.

The truth is he comes from a wealthy family, has never had a real job outside of politics, and has literally NEVER worked a day in his life in the kinds of jobs he wants his image to portray. He wants people to think he was a career tradesman, like an electrician or a plumber, because he wears a hoodie or a workman’s coat. Nope. He was a small town mayor, and then a lieutenant governor.

The guy’s whole persona is a sham. He’s fake. He’s just a run of the mill leftist progressive. Even the police dept FOP of his old town where he was mayor won’t endorse him.

He’s a phony.


As opposed to Dr. Oz - the guy whose dad is a wealthy surgeon and mom who comes from wealthy Ottoman royalty? Who paid for his elite Ivy education and med school at Penn? That "man of the people"?

Give me a break. Guys like Oz haven't spent one day with the "working class." He glided from prep school, to Harvard, to Penn, to hobnobbing with other doctors and eventually celebrities.


Whatever you might think of his candidacy, Oz has never sold himself as some blue-collar guy.


Fetterman literally is a blue collar guy, having slept in a basement, renovated a community center, built his home out of an old auto dealership, etc.

He came from an upper middle class family but has basically led a lower middle class lifestyle prior to becoming the Lt Governor.


That's a fancy way of saying he lived like a basement bum with his wife until he was practically 50. That's not blue collar. That's lazy.


+1000

"Slept in a basement?" Ha Ha. Can't wait til PP's 45 year old son is home with mommy and daddy, "sleeping in the basement."


Where did Oz sleep? Eliot? Kirkland? Or on the Quad?

Again, your elitist denigration of hard working people is noted.

I'm ambivalent about Oz, but he was a surgeon before going into the media world. I don't think you can argue that surgeons are slackers when it comes to work.

Look, Fetterman has created an image of a blue collar guy from a hard-scrabble town in Pennsylvania that he sells to low information voters. I actually kind of respect his ability to convince people that he is something other than what he is. But, it doesn't take much effort to see through that.


So you’re going to ignore Oz being a con man for the last decade? That’s okay with you?


That's literally what it means to be a Republican. You're either in the Club, or you're not.


Fetterman is a con-man. He pretends to be something he’s not.

Oz has never pretended to be anything other than a Doctor. A REAL Dr, I mean. Not a Jill Biden “doctor”.


1) he is a turkish resident and votes in turkish elections
2) he has been selling snake oil oin TV for over a decade, he is literally a con man

Multigenerational housing is more common in Appalachia than in other parts of the country. You're just another Republican elitist spouting nonsense and denigrating lifestyles they can't possibly identify with...


I really wish you could understand how absurd your post sounds to normal people. I really do…


What is absurd about that post? I would love to hear a normal person explain exactly what about that is absurd.


The idea that "multigenerational housing in Appalachia" is used in any way to refer to trust fund slacker John Fetterman.


Sorry to hear that you're such an elitist that you simply cannot fathom family structures other than the one you grew up with.

Not sure how you came to that conclusion from reading my posts.

What do you disagree with that I wrote?

Yep, Oz is pretty damn smart. Most heart surgeons are. How many lives have you saved, PP?


Pretty funny that you're simping for a guy who doesn't even live in PA.


If that's your only point, you might as well give it up. There is no requirement that representatives/ Senators live in the area they represent. I can think of one local congressman (MD) who does not actually reside in the district he represents. So what?

There is absolutely a requirement for US Senators to live in the state they represent. There is not always a requirement for US Representatives to live in the House district they represent, that is state dependent.

No there is a requirement that the U.S. Senators legally own or rent housing in the state they represent. They don't have to live there. And also not lie on the tax domicile. Wasn't Josh Hawley using his mother's address or something?

Fetterman isn't from Appalachia. He's from "another part of the country"--born in Berks county and moved to York county as a child. He didn't move to Appalachia until far into adulthood.

People with foreign citizenship should not be allowed to hold a federal office. Too many conflicts of interest.

I'm ambivalent about Oz, but he was a surgeon before going into the media world. I don't think you can argue that surgeons are slackers when it comes to work.

Look, Fetterman has created an image of a blue collar guy from a hard-scrabble town in Pennsylvania that he sells to low information voters. I actually kind of respect his ability to convince people that he is something other than what he is. But, it doesn't take much effort to see through that.


So you’re going to ignore Oz being a con man for the last decade? That’s okay with you?

And Fetterman isn't Appalachian.

I’m not picking on Fetterman because he had a stroke. I’m picking on him because he’s a complete and utter fraud.

He’s trying to pretend to be the vanguard of “the working class”, wearing hoodies and carhardt jackets and showing his sleeve tattoos and talking about the struggle of the blue collar people.

The truth is he comes from a wealthy family, has never had a real job outside of politics, and has literally NEVER worked a day in his life in the kinds of jobs he wants his image to portray. He wants people to think he was a career tradesman, like an electrician or a plumber, because he wears a hoodie or a workman’s coat. Nope. He was a small town mayor, and then a lieutenant governor.

The guy’s whole persona is a sham. He’s fake. He’s just a run of the mill leftist progressive. Even the police dept FOP of his old town where he was mayor won’t endorse him.

He’s a phony.


As opposed to Dr. Oz - the guy whose dad is a wealthy surgeon and mom who comes from wealthy Ottoman royalty? Who paid for his elite Ivy education and med school at Penn? That "man of the people"?

Give me a break. Guys like Oz haven't spent one day with the "working class." He glided from prep school, to Harvard, to Penn, to hobnobbing with other doctors and eventually celebrities.


Yep, Oz is pretty damn smart. Most heart surgeons are. How many lives have you saved, PP?


Pretty funny that you're simping for a guy who doesn't even live in PA.


If that's your only point, you might as well give it up. There is no requirement that representatives/ Senators live in the area they represent. I can think of one local congressman (MD) who does not actually reside in the district he represents. So what?

There is absolutely a requirement for US Senators to live in the state they represent. There is not always a requirement for US Representatives to live in the House district they represent, that is state dependent.


No there is a requirement that the U.S. Senators legally own or rent housing in the state they represent. They don't have to live there. And also not lie on the tax domicile. Wasn't Josh Hawley using his mother's address or something?

Hawley was lying and saying he was living at his sister’s address while he was building and Ozarks vacation house. But the whole reason he was lying and using that address is because you need to live in the state you represent in the US Senate.

Meanwhile, Oz listed his in-laws’ house on his candidate registration and didn’t even spell the name of the town correctly.

And while he has now bought a house in PA, the church that sold Oz’s house to him filed a really unusual “if you decide not to keep this you need to sell it back to us” right of first refusal provision when they sold it.

I love how upset the right wing trolls are that this debate isn’t moving the needle at all in PA because voters there don’t want a snake oil carpetbagger.

Whatever you might think of his candidacy, Oz has never sold himself as some blue-collar guy.


Fetterman literally is a blue collar guy, having slept in a basement, renovated a community center, built his home out of an old auto dealership, etc.

He came from an upper middle class family but has basically led a lower middle class lifestyle prior to becoming the Lt Governor.


That's a fancy way of saying he lived like a basement bum with his wife until he was practically 50. That's not blue collar. That's lazy.


Multigenerational housing is more common in Appalachia than in other parts of the country. You're just another Republican elitist spouting nonsense and denigrating lifestyles they can't possibly identify with...


Fetterman isn't from Appalachia. He's from "another part of the country"--born in Berks county and moved to York county as a child. He didn't move to Appalachia until far into adulthood.


Well, he's lived in Appalachia for the last 20 years.

Are you Potomac or McLean?



Fetterman held an unarmed black jogger at gun point.

A republican doing this and then running for Senate years later would lead to riots. Cities would burn. People would die.


But Fetterman gets a pass because he’s a Dem.
