The Philadelphia Inquirer’s editorial board has issued a sharp rebuke of Pennsylvania senator John Fetterman in a new opinion piece, urging him to take his job “seriously” and writing that “it’s time for Fetterman to serve Pennsylvanians, or step away.”
In a strongly worded piece published on Sunday, the editorial board of the Philadelphia Inquirer, which endorsed Fetterman during his 2022 Senate campaign, said the first-term Democrat “has missed more votes than nearly every other senator in the past two years” and “regularly skips committee hearings, cancels meetings, avoids the daily caucus lunches with colleagues, and rarely goes on the Senate floor”.
The editorial board also wrote that six former Fetterman staffers told an Inquirer reporter that Fetterman was frequently absent or spent hours alone in his office, avoiding colleagues and meetings.
Fetterman turned conservative after his stroke. His lack of participation in the Senate and change in stance after a major health episode should bring his competency into question.
It’s incredibly sad, because he was so promising in the early days. He is not the Senator everyone voted for.
brain damage causes conservatism
That’s my takeaway here.
Ye’olde worm-brain is another example
so promising in the early days.
About that… Some more news did a whole episode on his career showing that he’s been an opportunistic grifter this whole time.
Some more news is awesome.
My stepdad went maga after getting a brain tumor. Wish I was making that up.
GOP hit him with the secret stroke beam that makes you conservative
As opposed to the secret stroke beam that gets you a meeting with HR.
I thought it was *non-*secret stroking that got you a meeting with HR.
Fetterman needs to choke on a bag of dicks.
That would be a waste of good dicks. Let him suffocate on the bag.
Amen. In this economy, that bag of dicks could feed a family of 7.
