Here is an interview with him and Jon Stewart. It's long, but very telling. Fetterman was given talking points that he tried to stick to, but he's not quite right and couldn't follow up. I'm not sure who thought it was a good idea for him to go onto Jon Stewart of all places: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3BMAkJIlnw

To be fair Jon was being extremely generous with him. Dude has severe brain damage and it's obvious when you hear him attempt to speak a coherent thought. Stewart could have eviscerated him.

I agree that he isn't quite right and that Jon was very kind, but he seemed to get clear headed when he talked about his support for Israel. He's not that brain dead.

Really? I mean it sounds more like he's just reciting memorized points.

Maybe memorized points that he's said so many times, it's become canon?

My point is I'm not seeing any actual thought going on in his eyes. His mouth is moving and saying things, like a puppet for other people's beliefs.

I listened to it, didn't watch it. He seemed to be in session when he talked about Israel to me. I guess we can disagree on that and people can watch it for themselves. It's in the last quarter of the video.

to be fair to the people of pa, fetterman ran a pretty progressive campaign, and he was up against dr. oz. he blindsided everyone by going full maga after getting into office.

Stewart is one of the most vicious interviewers around, just ask Tucker Carlson
