John Fetterman is still struggling mightily after his stroke earlier this year. So much so that NBC could just do a sit down interview with him without providing him a closed captioning system so he could understand the questions.
NBC explains:
What the reporter said:
“We had a monitor set up so he could read my questions because he still has lingering auditory processing issues as a result of the stroke, which means he has a hard time understanding what he’s hearing. Now once he reads the question, he’s able to understand. You’ll hear he also still has some problems, some challenges with speech. And I’ll say Katy, that just in some of the small talk prior to the interview before the closed captioning was up and running, it did seem that he had a hard time understanding our conversations.”
He’s not even capable of having a sit down interview with a reporter because of his auditory issues, yet he wants to be the Senator of Pennsylvania?
His campaign claims he’ll be able to do the job of Senator just fine, but that doesn’t appear to be the case at all.
Look I am not making fun of the man because having a stroke and dealing with the consequences of it are very serious. But he’s clearly having health issues that make it seem like he’s not fit for the job at this time. And hiding it from voters in Pennsylvania is not fair.
