John Fetterman is not fit for government employment in my opinion. He should have never come to this.

When someone suffers sufficient brain damage to make them completely reverse everything they should get recalled.

I mean, personally I always thought he was a grifter, but if he is going to contend it is brain damage we should take him seriously.

It's an amusing irony that such a physically big man is such a little pathetic, craven suck-up.

It's important to remember size has little to do with having the intestinal fortitude and courage to stand against what you know is not right.

If you’re planning your mass shooting at a local elementary school - nobody will know your name.

You will be nothing.

Take out a few politicians and shareholders - now you’re gonna be famous forever.

John Fetterman should have been killed by the stroke. It should never have come to this.

IT should never come to having such feckless, hopeless, myopic, greedy LOSERS representing us in our government.

Let's not start that stupid shit.

Tiring enough to hear it from Republicans.

Okay, so tell me what he does that's in line with Democrats? Seems like a pretty accurate term to me when every time he has the opportunity he sides with republicans.
