According to Ron Filipkowski, Fetterman said that America is turning 50 years old

[senseandsensibility]

today on FAUX. It was part of a long answer about the ballroom, etc. He supports all of it, which is appalling. But he also said America was turning fifty years old.

I know some think the results of his stroke are contributing to his MAGA tendencies. Maybe this is a sign of that? Or maybe he is just trying to curry favor with the administration for unknown reasons? Or maybe he was always a secret R, as some have suggested?

I don't know. I never listen to him and don't know if he makes verbal gaffes like this often. But he did suffer a major stroke and it's possible it has affected his judgement.

Yes, I heard him say 50 as well.

3. My thoughts on Fetterman.

Not every Democrat in Congress agrees with everything that the party does. They go along because they have bigger things that they want to accomplish such as expanding healthcare or reversing income inequality. I think that what sent Fetterman over the edge was criticism of Israel over their actions in Gaza. There were reports that his aides were saying that he acted like that is all he cared about. The stroke may still have had something to do with it.

4. Strokes don't make people traitors.

Of course I am not calling anyone a traitor.

Just providing clinical information.
