    Whenever I see this guy, all I can think about is how he chased down a random Black jogger with a shotgun. Not surprised that establishment politicians let him be the token "leftist."

            tldr: unseen shots fired, fetterman went yeehawwwww, held some random black dude hostage until police showed up, police searched the dude who was just a random black guy. no punishment on fetterman.

    I love how this dude spent like, maybe 9 months throwing a fit about the sweatpants and shorts thing to look as everyman as possible, then less than a year into his 6 year term, goes full lib and endorses genocide.

    Then, I hear for the first time from this very thread that in 2013 he held a black runner at gunpoint? Lol, lmao even. How abundantly clear does it have to become that electoralism is just the circuses part of "bread and circuses?"

      Genocide John should be forced to wear full Victorian winter formal dress every day for the rest of his life and be confined to the equator

          Unfortunately, the Iron Maiden was actually invented in the 1800s and never actually used. It was devised as spooky contraption to sell to museums and oddity shows. Fortunately, we have a better device: THE BREAKING WHEEL.

      the 2013 incident was a major point during his campaign. of course the chuds didn't talk about it as much as the stroke, but it was definitely known.

    fetterman makes no sense to me. dude just won the senate seat. he's set for 6 years.

    i can "understand" not wanting to rile up AIPAC (those are hard fucking quotes, there's a genocide going on), but to just lash out alongside AIPAC/Israeli government for the genocide when there's 0 political reason for doing so.....? again, he just won. he's set for 6 years. set for life now with the congressional pension, really.

    honestly, get his ass.

        lol, he's 100% done after this term. I'm sure AIPAC or some fracking company will set him up afterwards.

      Better help us the most evil dystopian shit I can imagine. The system we have for treating mental health is already complete nonsense. Remember the human crush event at that Travis Scott concert, and how the compensation he offered the survivors was a single better help therapy session? BECAUSE I SURE AS SHIT REMEMBER.
