alabama in the middle? how crude and dismissive. goes to show you how much the national news and liberal commentators care about the backbone of the USA
People:" Its terrible what Jill has put her husband through"
Fettermans wife: "Hold my beer."
SoS: “We are not going to have results on election night”.
Ya don’t sayyy!! 😂
Soooo predictable.
I have a gut feeling Dr. Oz will do great things for PA
Excellent episode. Thanks for posting!
Takes guts for a stroke victim to get up there and debate while still recovering. Fetterman has got balls, Oz has crudités.
Fetterman will get better, Oz won’t.
Regardless of how you feel about Fetterman, this is cruel to allow him to run for a position that he is clearly not in a condition to handle. He needs time to recover before being responsible for such an important position. It's like putting a firefighter who is still healing from 4th degree burns, back into a burning building to fight a fire. It's sick. My mom had a brain tumor and had cognitive issues and partial paralysis, it would've been irresponsible and heartless for me to allow her to return to "life as normal" before fully recovering. Unfortunately, she only recovered to about 60-70% from what she was previously, after 2 years of working hard at recovery. I feel bad for Fetterman, whether I agree with what he stood for prior to the stroke, or not. I hope he does fully recover. But, he is not in a condition to handle the demands of a position like this. Not to mention it's potentially putting all voters lives and livelihoods on the line, putting that in the hands of someone who is not capable of handling it at this time.
Any vote for Fetterman is a vote for a rubber stamp with a D on it. And Chuck and crew are perfectly ok with that. Pretty disgusting stuff.
Fetterman should have had to debate prior to any elections cast. Democrats cannot say they respect democracy.
This is embarrassing. Do the right thing and let Fetterman go home, recover and be well. Chuck, just awful, not calling this out for what it is, this is abusive, sad and disgusting. He should not be representing our great state in any way.
Anyone voting for this guy is voting for a rubber stamp with a D on it. Embarrassing. Democrats are making a mockery of our election process. His family should be ashamed.
Doctor OZ just wants to win.he cares about himself,not Americans.
My mother had a stroke and recovered fully. Fetterman will fully recover, what was Ozs excuse?
Let's not forget the moderator typed questions because they used a teleprompter. That had a lot to do with Fettermans psuse. He had to wait on the question to come up
I’m not getting why everyone is defending him having a stroke. It’s terrible he experienced that. But our country is in no position to have political leaders in office that aren’t able to convey what they need to convey. Maybe he should step back and take the time to heal and then run for office.
Abortion is not big in Pennsylvania it’s about 5-6 on the list
This race should be simple. Pensylvanians ask yourselves. Where will Oz's loyalties lie? Wherever he lays his hat(his many homes)? Or Turkey? Where he had already cast a vote. And are you ready to cast out the Disabilities Act? Does Fettermans disability prevent him from writing, or sponsoring legislation? With the experience? Does Oz?
Voting decisions in this race need to be made to decide how you want the Senate to vote as a whole on national issues. It has major implications on what the President can do going forward, especially what can be done by whomever wins the 2024 election. Politics in America have turned very ugly. This is the last chance regular citizens have to do anything about it.
did America get rid of its ways and means committee in the house of representation in d.c.?
Carpetbagger Oz is not a Pennsylvania resident. He should not be running in this election at all.
That representative(D) is depending his candidate Fittermann even for me he is not fit his job. They are more on abortion rather than the inflation, higher gas prices, groceries an crime in you states. Chuck Tood you select a democratic person you intervied and you are showing your color as a democrat.
Mitch McConnell needs to add more funds to the Oz campaign! You know the Democrats will throw money to this severely impaired candidate. If McConnell turns his back, he should be out of any leadership position!
Corporate stooge stuff here. In a night with a republican finally admitting that they think they as politicians should be making decisions for women around abortion, you instead focus on Fedderman's health. Your Corporate Overlords are showing MSNBC.
I think what Fetterman meant was that he previously didn't support fracking because it was bad for the environment. But because of the effects of the global pandemic and the Ukraine War causing gas and food to go up, he now supports fracking to elevate the hardship put on everyday people.
U people cracks me up😆 because you know Fitterman is a done deal but you people want to push this sick man just to win how disgusting!!
