Watch: Sweatshirt-Clad John Fetterman Speaks on the Debt Ceiling Debate in Sad Display
By Sister Toldjah | 3:30 PM on May 18, 2023

I continue to believe that what Democrats including his staffers, the mainstream media, and his wife are doing to Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is just plain wrong, and things that have happened as recently as this week continue – in my opinion – to prove the point.

As RedState reported Wednesday, a Washington Post “journalist” got caught using a heavily doctored quote that made Fetterman look like he was doing and sounding just fine during his questioning of a witness during a Senate Banking Committee hearing.

When confronted, however, WaPo economics reporter Jeff Stein deleted the tweet and then later admitted that he used a quote that came directly from the Senator’s office without bothering to a) attribute it to the office and b) check it against the actual video, which was painful to watch and which sounded nothing like the quote Stein originally provided.

Now here we are a day later, and Fetterman, clad in a hooded sweatshirt and gym shorts, took his turn again to speak before the cameras, this time on the debt ceiling negotiations and how he supports Joe Biden invoking the 14th Amendment in the event he feels it is necessary to save his presidency do so.

To Fetterman’s left was Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and to his right was Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vt.). Watch below as Sen. Markey in particular closely monitors what Fetterman is reading from his statement to make sure he doesn’t go off script:

That was just 50 shades of uncomfortable to watch, no matter how you slice it.

The 14th Amendment does not apply in this case.

Furthermore, the President has no authority to invoke the provisions of that Amendment regarding the public debt; only Congress has the authority to enforce the amendment through appropriate legislation.

Good grief his wife needs to buy him a couple of blazers and few pairs of dress slacks.

No kidding. 
You'd think their names would be more meaningful than the dates they died.

Fetterman is the poster child for why everyone should NOT have the right to vote.  When this country was founded, you needed to be a land owner to vote.  You had to have skin in the game.  Today, most of the people voting do not pay taxes, and are dependent on the government for their financial survival.  This whole approach is destroying our country.

The people of PA voted for a man that is not functional as senator, not functional as POTUS.  They are a prime example of what is drastically wrong in America.  It is low IQ people like the inbred fools of PA that elect idiots to destroy our country further.  Folks in Europe must laugh their *sses off when they see videos of the leaders of this nation.

AP has an excuse for why Fetterman dresses like he crawled out of a dumpster and it’s a doozy
