He does not have a stutter. He had a stroke caused by a blood clot. He is also not releasing his medical records. If he wants to be re-categorized as disabled have at it, but there is a big difference between a speech impediment caused by anxiety and one cause by a debilitating medical condition that cut off oxygen to his brain.

+100. I am a liberal dem in PA and voted for Fetterman in the primary, and will in the general, but am very upset at how his campaign has refused to release medical records. They downplayed the severity of the stroke for months. And it will be horrible if because of this many voters flock to Oz, and PA ends up with Mastriano for governor too.

He just released a statement from his doctor, I believe, last week.

A statement from his doctor (who contributed to his campaign, BTW) is not medical records. They have not released a cognitive test. The letter written by his doctor did not include a prognosis for what can be expected in the future. It has very little information about the effects Fetterman is suffering as a result of his stroke.

Given that the stroke was over 5 months ago, it is quite possible that where he is now may be the best it is going to be for him.

Replace "Fetterman" with Trump and change the letter from one drafted by the doctor to one drafted by the candidate and you have 2016.

Hypocrite.
"A statement from his doctor (who contributed to his campaign, BTW) is not medical records."

Oh, the irony of this statement. It wasn't that long ago that your carnival barker of a leader presented a doctor's letter (that he dictated) in lieu of medical records. If it was good enough for him, it's good enough for Fetterman!

What another load of crap.

Fetterman is essentially applying for a position. A position of power. He has had a stroke. The effects of that stroke are still very evident 5 months later.
The voters of PA have every right to seek more information about his condition and his prognosis. And, not only the voters in PA - votes made in the Senate affect ALL Americans.
PA residents should also be concerned that their current Lt. Gov. appears to have issues that may affect his ability to perform his current job.

Didn’t you hear? The Administration led us out of a technical recession and a soft landing looks more and more likely. That’s all anyone will be talking about for the next two weeks on the campaign trail.

Nice try, MAGA. Maybe next time?

Nah. Americans are still feeling the pain. The report that came out is one that looks in the rear view mirror..... a time that Americans are feeling the results of high inflation and skyrocketing heating oil prices.
The discussion will continue to be about how to make ends meet.

And what is the GOP plan for that?

The GOP has no plan, but acts like it has one. In absence of that we get Dems with plans not fully supported, yet the Dems act like they’ve been given a mandate.

Person, woman, man, camera, TV.

Whataboutism, change the subject, false comparisons, deflection, desperation.

The point is, Trump on so many fronts, lowered the bar so much, that you really have no place to complain here.

Trump acts like he is having a stroke (covefefe, windmills)/mental illness/dictator delusions ALL THE TIME, but you all do fealty to him still (don't tell me you don't, your reps have been making pilgrimages to his palaces for a while.

At this point, I'd be happy to vote for a crash test dummy with a Democrat sticker. At least I know that my vote will not go to someone who willingly participates in the current GOP nonsense.

And no, the GOP can't do anything about inflation. Politicians like to pretend they can.

Yes, I would indeed vote for a crash test dummy if it was the only alternative to a rethuglican. I’m not the least bit ashamed to say that.

You don't follow his account.
He abbreviates everything.

It has been answered so many times. You choose to ignore.
1. Stop Biden from his out of control spending. Congress holds the purse strings. (Although, we have seen that Biden will go to great lengths to spend without Congress' approval..... Republicans will just have to continue to file lawsuits to stop him).
2. Enact pro-growth and anti-regulatory policies.
3. Force this administration to make America energy independent.

It will not be immediate, but they can stop the bleeding until we get an administration that knows how to govern.

So just slogans, no details.

Oz is mortifying but the prob w Dems is that this makes it OK to put anyone in as their candidate. I mean Fetterman was every bit as mortifying - did you watch the debate? He could not put a sentence together. I think that in this situation there is no better candidate. I find the PP who made the comment that they would vote for anyone other than Oz to be offensive. No. Just because a candidate is not agreeable should not be grounds to put an unqualified opponent in to get your vote. That's what's wrong with our current country and state of politics in general. As a Dem I would not vote for either of these candidates - both terrify me ti equal extents even if one's politics don't offend me as much as the other cause really, who are you kidding that he actually knows what's even going on???

An honest person would recognize that we must do better not continue the downward spiral. I can’t imagine anybody in good conscience voting for Fetterman.
