Did that stroke cause a personality change? Seems like he is suffering from magabrain.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

There will always be just enough Democrats like him to fuck us over. Every time, without exception.
I wonder what happens to a party without core values that can't be trusted?

Man this world is weird.
Oh my god, I hate that I've voted for this dude multiple times.
Okay I know what happened, he historically died, but a time traveler took over over his conciousness right before his death and now controls his body. John Fetterman is dead, this is just some time traveler fucking around with the past.
/s Shout outs to Travelers, go watch it its great.
I mean...it's not a crazy theory. dumber things have literally happened in the past 10 years.
This dude was pretty wacky from the get go. It was funny watching people flock to him like dumbasses to a flame.
2028, the year we will be finally rid of both of these dingbats from politics (hopefully)
Been a fraud since his pro zionist stance
"Just elect local progressives to form the future of the democratic party! Maybe next election season you'll get one!"
- Local "progressive" was never that progressive, especially to non-whites the media made it look that way and blame his stroke, and is now a Trump supporting fascist once he's in office.
At some point Charlie Brown stopped trying to kick the football, we should too. Better than Dr. Oz, but so was any random person in Pennsylvania.

This is a man representing a purple state seeing not only his state but the entire country shift pretty solidly to the right and is just hedging his bets accordingly. And a sad but true fact is that if you want to have a political career, you bend the knee to Trump. You make the pilgrimage to Maralago, you buy his overpriced watches, you stay in his hotel rooms, you cater to his base on his platform. Whatever way you choose, the main goal is just to curry favor with Trump. And Fetterman has decided that bending the knee to Trump is the best move for his political career. Given the hard shift to the right the country is taking, he may not be wrong.
And before anybody hops on me, I'm not saying I agree with the man or am trying to excuse his behavior or anything like that. I'm just saying that strictly from the perspective of what is most likely to get him re-elected in Pennsylvania or advance his political career, bending the knee to Trump may be what he feels is the best way forward.
