WOW! A man born in 1969 who'd never held a job in his life until he got
elected mayor of Braddock, PA (pop 1,721) in 2006 (at age 37), serving until 2019 (age 50)... At a $150 per month salary. Subsidized by his rich daddy (and kind sister, who sold him his house for...$1).
He was somehow elected Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania in 2019.
According to the left-wing arbiters of Wikipedia, re Fetterman's term as Lieutenant Gov:
According to the left-wing arbiters of Wikipedia, re Fetterman's term as Lieutenant Gov:
An Associated Press
review of Fetterman's daily schedule during his tenure as lieutenant
governor found that he kept a light work schedule and was often absent
from official state business.[66] From his inauguration in January 2019 until May 2022, Fetterman's official schedule was blank for one-third of workdays.[66] Additionally, the days that he worked were often short ranging from four to five hours.[66] He was often absent from presiding over the Pennsylvania State Senate,
an official task of the lieutenant governor. In 2020, he attended only
half of the sessions and in 2021, only one-third of the sessions.[66]
Oh, yeah, and he had a stroke back in May 2022, before the Democratic primary. Despite the stroke causing obvious brain damage, the Democrat party didn't ask him to step aside to let another candidate represent the party. Nor did his televised debate with Republican opponent Dr. Mehmet Oz in October 2022 dissuade the state's voters from electing this person who is utterly unqualified and incompetent---based on his personal history, his professional history (see above job performance record), AND his health.
What's next: Biden/Fetterman 2024?
If "Saturday Night Live" were still a real show, that would make a great skit. Unfortunately, all of the edgy Harvard/Yale writers they used to hire in decades past have now dumbed themselves down intellectually out of both PC cowardice and overt allegiance to one political party. For shame. And you wonder why there are historical crack-downs on such blatantly biased academics and intellectuals...
When, as a kid, I read about Germany and Soviet Russia and China's Mao in my school history books, I was innocently shocked: "No one should ever condemn journalists and teachers! They're so smart! They read books!" Well, I've been a first-hand witness in the past 7 years or so as to why exactly "journalists and teachers" are considered suspect---because they have an extreme left-wing bias (over 95% of teacher/academic and journalist donations are to the Democrat party), untempered by actual thought, that they actively try to impose on the public via their positions. Decades go by when we ignore it, or else they tone it down a bit for periods... But when their bias rears its ugly head too overtly and for too long, then of course there are going to be well-deserved repercussions. Frankly, after what I've witnessed since 2016 or so, I won't shed a tear.
