TRUTH IN ADVERTISING A NO-SHOW
The John Fetterman Campaign: Dishonesty and Hypocrisy Throughout
As has been prominently featured in the news since his major stroke back in May of this year, Lieutenant Governor and Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, has been fighting news cycles 24/7 in an effort to clarify questions that have been hanging in the air like the elephant in the room.
By that, I refer to questions asked as Fetterman struggles to recover, the main question being: Is John Fetterman medically fit to serve in the United States Senate, having been paired against prominent cardiothoracic surgeon Mehmet Oz for the Republicans?
Throughout this dog-and-pony show they’ve called a campaign in perhaps the most-watched Senate race in America, seeking to replace retiring Pat Toomey, we saw Fetterman survive a serious, major stroke.
While he survived it, Team Fetterman has gone to extraordinary lengths to obfuscate, ignore, minimize, wish away his stroke’s severe damage or even outright lie about it; all the while, having a willing, complicit lapdog media licking his boots with every spoken word or press release, which begs the question: Is this campaign coverage, or a church service? It’s a fair ask.
With legitimate reporters betting bullied as heartless and cruel by radical left news groups—especially when Senate candidates in critical swing seats are fair game—it becomes crystal clear they’re nothing more than ‘organs’ parroting DNC talking points (Democratic National Committee).
To add fuel to the fires of typical Democratic deceit these last few years, Fetterman agreed to only one debate with Dr. Oz, just two weeks before the election, and only after 600,000+ Pennsylvanians had already cast advance mail-in ballots.
With this little travesty freak show debate last night having received full blowback, now would be a good time for buyers’ remorse to kick in, and for mail-in ballots to be made illegal nationwide, with an absolute requirement for photo ID. If Canada, Mexico, and India can insist on photo ID to vote, why can’t we in the United States insist on the same?
Fetterman knew he’d ‘pooch’ and otherwise collapse in the debate, which he did from the opening. When you open the debate with ‘Thank you and goodnight.”, you just know your brain is seriously scrambled, and you’re definitely not ready for prime-time...and this is coming from a major stroke survivor.
Full disclosure here: In 2010, I was senior staff in an Oklahoma congressional race, when I suffered a major stroke while on the campaign trail—behind the wheel, at 70 miles (115 kilometers) an hour—even though we didn’t know it at the time. And yet to the chagrin of some, I more than survived, if for no other reason to show that spite and defiance are virtues from which I can extend ‘central greetings’ to those wanting me dead.
In my case, it wasn’t until three months later that we discovered the stroke; all this, while I was working another campaign out of the country. Both my clients—in local races—pulled me aside, and voiced their suspicions regarding the fact they thought I had slowed down just a touch, and tumbled to the stroke themselves.
While the school district was pleased with my teaching performance, and my contract was renewed for another year, I opted to retire instead for family reasons to be closer to my youngest. I also knew my doctor would be in a better position to monitor my health, while giving me straight talk in other areas in addition to the ones affected by my stroke.
The difference here is I’m not a candidate for public office. In Fetterman’s case, he is, and I’m seeing hypocrisy at a level not seen since John Freakin’ Kerry reeked, oozed, emanated and slimed such from his every pore and orifice, just like I saw in 2004, when he was the nominee/designated sacrificial lamb in that year’s presidential election.
Kerry—as you’ll remember—pandered to just about every group and/or person he could, like claiming he could cure Superman actor Christopher Reeve from his quadriplegia, in order to win an election he had zero chance of winning anyway, either electorally or in the popular vote. It just wasn’t possible. He knew it, the country knew it, and even Kerry knew the country was smarter than he was in that case.
As to Fetterman now: In light of last night’s unmitigated disaster of a debate, the left-stream media’s blatant butt-kissing, or worse, plus the fact that through the period of the last five months, it is my professional medical opinion—both as a medic, and also as a major stroke survivor myself—that John Fetterman is medically unfit to serve as a member of the United States Senate.
Fetterman would best serve his, his family’s and the country’s best interests, by focusing on improving both his health and his quality of life, as he was lucky enough to survive his stroke. It could’ve been much worse; he could’ve either been in the human cabbage patch, or much worse, wearing a toe tag in the morgue.
For that, Fetterman should be grateful every day of his life, for the second chance he was given. ***
