The Mentally Damaged Make Better Puppets

News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:

PHILADELPHIA, PA — In his first TV interview since suffering a stroke earlier this year, Democratic candidate John Fetterman was asked if he still possessed the mental ability to serve as a United States Senator. Fetterman responded with an unequivocal “yes,” which he communicated with two eye-blinks, which is said to mean “yes.”

“Yes,” said Fetterman, blinking twice before elaborating with a series of foot stomps and facial twitches. “I cognitive ability. Yes, cognitive. Senator. Easy. No problem.”

The NBC reporter nodded happily and asked a follow-up question: “And what do you say to all the citizens who believe you’ve suffered a tragic brain injury and should sit this one out?”

“Shut. Up.” Fetterman fired back using a keypad on his motor scooter. “I fine.”

Biden also weighed in on the controversy, saying he thinks Fetterman is in perfect health and would do a great job as Senator. “I don’t understand what everyone’s talking about,” he said to reporters. “This guy Fetterman makes perfect sense when he speaks! Applesauce ribbenflibbet!”

Fetterman’s team insists he will still be on the ballot in a few weeks and is hoping for everyone’s vote so he can hold the Senate for Democrats until they can figure something else out.

 

Go here to read the rest.  This may become a trend among Democrats.  Put up manifestly mentally unwell candidates and use that as an excuse to dodge debates.  Crazy candidates for crazy times.

Actually, Fetterman would be the perfect democrat senator. Vote the way he is told, say nothing and therefore make no mistakes. The perfect cypher in the senate to represent the unthinking people who would vote for him.

Fetterman’s wife, father, and doctors are all implicated in this, as are the sachems of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party.

It is Fettetwoman”s greed for political power. He could say no. He could walk away. He will not. Democrats never do. Hillary will not quit. Pelosi, Schumer, Waters, the whole stinking rotten bunch of them never quit. They die in office or trying to get in office.
Fetterwoman is sick. That lump on his neck keeps growing. This is on him. The Pittsburgh media loves him and covers for him.
He is a lazy grifting dolt of a man, oblivious to what is going on around him.
Catholics are urged to do penance not just for themsrlves and their loved ones, but for sinners in general, especially ones they don’t like.
Well, inflation eating away at my paycheck and my 401K are more than enough and I don’t feel like doing any additional penance for grifters, which includes Fetterwoman and the Bidens. They know better.
