2 more Fetterman aides leave embattled senator’s office
Two more aides left John Fetterman’s office in recent weeks, the latest in a stream of staff exits amid the Pennsylvania senator’s shifting political persona and questions about his health.
Fetterman aides Madeleine Marr and Caroline Shaffer parted ways with his team, according to two people familiar with their departures and granted anonymity to speak freely. They left shortly before New York Magazine reported that current and former Fetterman staff are increasingly concerned about the Democratic senator’s mental and physical health, one of the people said.
Staff inside Fetterman’s office had been bracing for the magazine’s story in the days before it was published. Fetterman has denied that he is not fit to serve, calling the report “a one-source hit piece.”
He's not the same person he was before his stroke. He's catastrophically brain damaged. He should be impeached and replaced.
One of the things I enjoy is that while his office is burning around him, John continues to send out the same, boring, campaign pledge emails like nothing is going on.
I tried to get removed from the list a few times (I never gave him a dollar) with no luck.
But now I'm enjoying the completely out of touch email blasts from him and his team. Just the same playbook, plodding along, not even acknowledging that people are concerned about his mental health.
"Hey friend, it's John. What if I told you ... now give me $5."
Jeez. He's brain damage is so bad I'm afraid he'll buy a bowflex.
What's wrong with a Bowflex? I never bought one, but I've used a couple of them a few times. They seemed to be a decent combination bench, if a bit more complicated than necessary.

That source: Fetterman.
What are the odds on him flipping parties?
Increasing, but I think still unlikely. I think the most likely scenario for that to happen is he loses his primary but stays in as an independent.
He needs to lose and get tf out of politics, he clearly can’t handle it
he will be primaried anyways, so it doesnt matter, he has to become independant, and republicans wont vote for someone like him, unless hes a magat to begin with.
Fuck that fool.
Another bait and switch. Sinema, Liebermann, Manchin, Pelosi, on and on. Maybe Dems and leftists should take a lesson and plan a decades, centuries long games. Not like Clintons, Harris, Obama either. We can learn from their successes and failures, in this Sun Tzu Art of War, though. Realpolitik.
