TL;DR: The Senate’s saddest zionist ogre has a Bolsonaro-esque affinity for collecting mental illnesses and is probably going to kill himself soon.
Also, he’s addicted to ruining his kids’ birthdays:
In March, Fetterman suddenly took an early-morning trip to Hartford, Connecticut, without telling his team why — leaving them at a loss for what to tell Gisele when she demanded to know why he was missing one of their kids’ birthdays. Fetterman objected to this characterization, saying to me, “I took a weekend trip in March to visit the grave site of my friend from grad school who died in 1993 — a trip my staff and family knew about.”

I’m absolutely not reading all of that, hope he has another stroke and drives off a cliff.
Some highlights. These quotes are only from the first quarter of the article. The article is very long, but maybe worth reading. “Struggle” in the title refers to Fetterman’s staffers saying that he is unfit for the job as Senator.
(“He eats fast food multiple times a day”) to the scary (“We do not know if he is taking his meds and his behavior frequently suggests he is not”). “We often see the kind of warning signs we discussed,” Jentleson wrote. “Conspiratorial thinking; megalomania (for example, he claims to be the most knowledgeable source on Israel and Gaza around but his sources are just what he reads in the news — he declines most briefings and never reads memos); high highs and low lows; long, rambling, repetitive and self centered monologues; lying in ways that are painfully, awkwardly obvious to everyone in the room.”
He drove his car so “recklessly,” Jentleson said, that staff refused to ride with him. He had also bought a gun.
With the Democratic Party out of power and fighting with itself about how to move forward, it would be easy to imagine a “Fetterman 2028” machine kicking into gear.
Instead, many of his former staffers are hoping it never happens.Former and current staffers paint a picture of an erratic senator who has become almost impossible to work for and whose mental-health situation is more serious and complicated than previously reported.
When I spoke with Fetterman in April and shared those concerns, he denied anything was amiss. He told me that he felt like the “best version” of himself and later texted that the staff turnover at his office was typical of Washington.New York Times reached out to Fetterman’s team about a donation the campaign had received from a super-PAC associated with FTX, the now-bankrupt cryptocurrency company started by Sam Bankman-Fried. The Times reported that the PAC had spent $212,000 supporting Fetterman
Fetterman was sitting at a table by himself, slowly sipping a Coke and refusing to talk with anybody. Later that day, another staffer heard an alarming report from a journalist: Fetterman had just walked, obliviously, into the road and was nearly struck by a car.
Doctors there determined there had been no new stroke and that the “dizziness and confusion” he’d experienced was partly owed to severe dehydration.
He could barely string two sentences together, talking so quietly that everyone in the room had to strain to hear him. Fetterman then stood up and began walking around the office in tight loops, a move the two staffers described as doing “figure eights.”
This was my personal highlight:
Jentleson continues to believe, broadly, in the Fetterman project: that Democrats would benefit from punching left more often and that voters crave a heterodox candidate willing to stick a thumb in the eye of his own party.
What looks like a sudden nonsensical pivot in ideology caused by massive brain damage is actually a valuable project worth pursuing, says democrat.

megalomania

pls take my energy Megalomania, delusions of grandeur (banger song BTW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EAez2rY_8o), doomed Fetterman 2028 bid, and bought a gun.
Fetterman has the ingredients required to do something really funny. If they’re not going to give us bread they owe us circuses.

Vaxxed?
Gisele might have disliked what her husband was up to, but his father loved it. Karl Fetterman, an insurance executive, was way more conservative than his son. He used to have a magnet on his refrigerator that warned that his dog bites Democrats, and he watched Fox News constantly. When Fox would air segments about Fetterman’s strong stances on Israel or invite him on as a guest, the senator’s father would, according to former staff, almost always call to say how proud he was.

“saddest Zionist ogre” made me lol. Thank you!
Do you guys think he was always shitty or do you think the stroke destroyed the non shithead center of his brain
He was always shitty and his shitty behavior is well documented
Pulled a shotgun on a black jogger and forcibly detained him because he was “suspicious” and someone set off a firework nearby. Has never apologized and actively refused to do so to this day
Funded his mayoral campaign with his millionaire dad’s cash. The mayor job paid shit, like a pittance stipend because it was supposed to be an elite job you got when you were already wealthy or one you got fat off of corruption. His rich dad paid him 50k+ a year to compensate and yet he still collected the stipend from the town he supposedly loved
His actions to “clean up the town” he “loved”were essentially gentrification. Instead of addressing social issues creating crime he aimed to drive up property values to drive out people that were undesirable and attract more “appropriate” residents. This also included just straight up shutting down a nightclub he disliked because he felt it was a “nuisance”
When his re election came up he abused his authority and released confidential police records that showed his opponent had gotten a DUI right before the election to harm him in the polls. It worked, he won, and got away with it only receiving criticism and no actual penalty
The dnc later latched onto him and swept most of this under the rug. When the jogger stuff came up during campaigning it was around the time Ahmaud Arbery was murdered in literally the same exact scenario. Despite this he still refused to apologize for his actions and the headlines were mostly buried. Trump was able to roast him pretty effectively because it is extremely accurate that he is an extremely affluent rich boy who decided to play politics floated by daddy’s money.
The only schadenfreude is that after getting everything a guy could ever want up to and including a national profile all he’s done is make himself miserable.
Always shitty, all the Democrats are good at pretending to be progressive until they have the opportunity to do something about it. The only reason he won was he was running against Dr. Oz.
Another W for Lesser Evilism.
I think the stroke, and maybe Covid, hindered his ability to pretend. He’s fully mask off compared to playing the lib aesthetics game years ago. But perhaps that just coincides with him getting to a position he feels no longer requires it.
Both.
That’s what my sous chef said
I feel bad for his wife but also her direct comment in the article is really fucking funny.
My husbands doctors actually think he’s doing just fine, and this other guy is the one they are really concerned about.
Yeah wtf was that about?
My guess is that she’s trying to say that the psychosis isn’t responsible for his horrific politics, that part of him is doing just fine.
left me sad. i demand more struggle. may he lose everything he loves and then himself; inches at a time.
he’s going to budd dwyer himself on the senate floor, isn’t he?
:inshallah-script:
With one last battle cry.
Am I reading this wrong or does this basically say he went in for Psychosis and not Depression like it was reported?
Maybe both, my experience w mental health there is overlap in diagnosis.
Good, this ghoul deserves worse.
Yall see the video of him refusing to wear a seatbelt on a plane yet?
