“Don’t Ever Make The Decision To Harm Yourself” - Sen. John Fetterman 

Are you on meth?

It’s a shame how many people in western Pennsylvania talk so bad about him and make fun of him (of course Republicans).

Me too PA is lucky to have him represent!!

We would do great great guy

He's very cool!

😂😂😂 what u want all our elected officials to have brain damage

A mental moron that has coasted through life on his rich family's money. While pretending to be working class. He's a great example of there is no difference between Republicans and Democrats politicians, but the voters have to think there is. He is Democrat's George W Bush. It's amazing how many people are fooled by his "If I dress like a bum and complain about wearing a suit to my job, I'm a man of the people" act.

If you support Fettermans policies u should vote Cenk in the primaries. Fetterman isnt an Establishment corporate Democrat like Joe Biden whos pretending not to be

He’s a Senator, but yes I agree.

He never realised that he had to be a advocate for others before his stroke, that is just very telling. as soon as they themselfe have a stake in something, they suddenly have the need to do something about it. sounds corrupted to me.

​@@ALT-vz3jnThe Senate is part of our Congress.

@@andersandersen6295 I'm sure he's saying that just to get more votes. He obviously seems like someone who would have advocated for ADA improvements and helping everyone.

After 15 years of giving health care, it's time to take care of yourself. Wishing you all the best.

Yeah it’s rough when the world is so centred around working for people without disabilities. Just taking care of myself is a full time job, I’ve never been able to work. And so because I’m not “economically productive” I’m treated as lesser, and what I actually do contribute to my community is ignored because it can’t be measured as money.

@@DissociatedWomenIncorporated yeah that really stinks. Our productivity is not a measure of our worth at all. I'm with you, self care is now my job too and some days I'm more successful than others. Stay strong friend!

@@WynterDragon yeah I really hear you there. I’m autistic, and amongst my related sensory issues is difficulty with audio processing, I often struggle to decode what a person’s saying, especially if they have a strong accent that I’m not used to, so I’m quite interested in what disability aids John Fetterman’s been using. It seems like he’s using some app that transcribes what’s being said around him into subtitles/captions, if I’m understanding correctly. It’s very cool!

I'm currently in a hospital bed due to an emergency gall bladder kind of thing but my disorders didn't take a vacation to address the current thing. For instance, I have a light sensitivity that happened after a TBI. It's not highly unusual but the majority of people recover from it, I did not. So, I have to adjust my actions to avoid the pain and exist in the world. The worst of my symptoms come from overhead fluorescent lighting - hospitals are chock full of them - so I'm immediately exposed but figure that being in a hospital would be the easiest place to ask for a little help - warn me when they were going to be activated so I could shield myself, be aware of my issue & use them only when truly needed, and shut them off once leaving the room. You'd think I was asking for the moon! It got to the point some *had* to be doing it on purpose! I was hooked up to so many things (the operation didn't go smoothly) that it was impossible for me to flip a switch as I was nearly tied down. They had to do it as I couldn't. Have you ever had a flashlight in your eyes? It hurts, but this hurts 10x's or more worse (I'm guessing) it's like stabbing me in my eyes and then it causes an *awful* headache. All avoidable with the tiniest of effort - I mean, flicking a light switch? C'mon. Yet the pushback and petty bs over it has made this visit unnecessary extra painful. I don't get it. I know I'll never return to this hospital again. Most of the nurses are fabulous and try but they're overworked and all these "helpers" have to fill in. God forbid they have to take an extra step. They're literally hurting me at a very vulnerable time for something I have, don't want, can't get cured, etc. Sorry to run on but it's nuts and I'm living this prejudicial, destructive & easily avoidable ignorance to even the simplest adjustment at this very moment. it's so very disheartening. How is it acceptable to low-key torture a patient?

Lol he isnt competent to take part in politics at all.

Folks in the US need to learn to work to live, not live to work.

​@@floris-janvandermeulen8054yes, we need a livable wage

This guy is a fighter, has a great woman standing by his side, busted his balls to get back into mainstream life in order to lead and serve others. What an inspiration.

The irony of him saying that and your response. This guy is literally one of the dumbest people in congress. You are right. He represents you perfectly.

He is what he is talking about.... The guy can't even think.

Lmao this has to be a bot. The lack of self awareness that Fetterman had when he said this.

@@briansearle6868jealous much? You have to mock the Senator because you're an I'd)$t

😂 what a joke

He has reaped what he has sown. He's evil. He's a bad example of a man with no God conscience who puts himself on a pedestal who mocks others what he needs to look in the mirror and realize that he's not all that he's far from the truth he's far from with his. Only the willfully ignorant praises manager shows how many people are in the gutter spiracy ignorant lost souls who desperately need Jesus Christ.

So much honesty. 💯🙏🦧

He's a terrible representative.

We all have struggles, Johnny. This clown didn't seek help until he had the best healthcare in the nation, thanks to us taxpayers. Making this clown a political celebrity is a fuckin' joke!

Right on. 👍🏽

Good for you on the PhD!! My problem was nowhere near what happened to you, but I suffer from debilitating migraines. Back in the college, I lost count on the number of people who'd say "Just take an aspirin and move on" as though that's all it took. It absolutely amazes me the level of ignorance (deliberate and otherwise) that people have over conditions that can affect other people and regard others who are suffering as somehow less than human. I fully agree on Mr. Colbert's expert methodology. He always looks his guests in the face and talks directly to them. It's one of the things that has always made me respect him.

Yes, they used Augmentative Tech appropriately in this interview, Yet, overall the Closed Captioning on this show and others is Terrible: full of so many mistakes, it's almost unreadable.

@@dogsreadtruth4548 I can't tell you how many times I've reported the gobbledygook that passes for CC on YT. Seems obvious that AI is not yet ready for its closeup.

@@jeffreyestahl Fetterman gives me a migraine everytime that I see him before he shoots his mouth off with Stupidity just like Biden and Kamala!!

He’s in the Senate, not Congress. But yes.

@@ALT-vz3jnthe senate is in congress

And who he won against, even with health issues, wow.

​@@ALT-vz3jnthe Senate and the House make up the Congress. Please be careful when correcting people

@@careless_daughter Shh don't burst their bubble. The fact they would say that statement tells you enough about the poster. Senate not part of Congress, pray tell then what are they part of :)

Good comment.

He literally assaulted a young black kid and held him at gun point.

​@travr6 hahaha. So why isn't he a maga hero?

@@pisto30because normal people don’t chase down joggers and hold them at gun point. That is the dumbest statement/question I have ever heard!

😅😅 We need more like Uncle Fester like we need genital herpes.

@donquarnstrom2949 Nearly every major racist incident in U.S. history was done by Democrats. Every racist video you see like George Floyd or Mike Brown is in a Democrat run city. Everywhere black people are suffering in America TODAY is run by Democrats. You people keep saying this stupidity in complete disregard of basic facts.

Uh, I've seen it all....

I had vertigo just once !! Very odd and a bit scary!! Hope you are doing well 😊😊😊

Wish u nothing but greatness friend. Hang in there!

So, whereas Fetterman finds that reading visual text helps with his lapses in processing what he hears, you are not this way, and rather find that audio helps you to process the written word. Is that correct? Hope you don't mind my asking, I find this fascinating, the brain is very mysterious. Wishing you well

@@tabularasa Correct. My stroke probably took place in a different place in my brain. But I am not a neurologist. Human brains are very complex.

I have a similar problem with comprehension due to fibromyalgia. Focus? Pff! Recall? Hah! It feels so wrong and frustrating, I so hear you in that, but hang on and do well(as you can)!🌹

he's not our best or brightest. if this were a department store we'd fire him.

@@GorillaLoWolfbos I didn’t say anything about him being our best or brightest, I said he was a real person. Your reply makes me think maybe YOU aren’t one of our best or brightest.

@@Jokerlover69 He's not really a "real" person. He campaigned on being a progressive, then did a 180.

You can or can't? Sorry, not trying to be a pedant, but if a typo it's a critical one. :P

yeah he's a slob and no we don't need more bought and paid for politicians

He has done absolutely nothing besides take 3 months off and say incoherent shit. We need less of people like him. He should have dropped out, now the entire country is stuck with a man who is incapable of using his brain.

We kinda need to see him in this tuxedo T-shirt tho 😅

Hang in there bro.

That happened to my mother. She was extremely dehydrated, went to the hospital and they informed her she was having a heart attack. I wish you the best in your recovery.

Hunter Biden is his idol

You went all that time through depression when all you had to do was accept jesus as your savior. He is the God of peace

@cosmicjimbo Never worked for me..Went to 2 "Christian" colleges...Learn there's lot of BS in church teachings...Glad it works for you.

From one Internet stranger to another: Glad you're still with us. 😎

Geez you Libs lives are depressing. I'd probably try to off myself too if I were you.

Okay? Man the liberal idea of okay is troubling 😂😂😂😂

This is a horrible show and Steven sucks so bad he had to wait for 300 writers to make his show just like it has been poop

@@letstrythisagain5096expand

"... body double ..." That's so Hollywood. Saw a movie years ago about Nazis trying to kill Winston Churchill. At the end of the movie they succeed, and Winston is very upset his body double was killed.

As a republican, That's ignorant . We don't need incompetence in DC fetterman himself says it. Smh 8:15

dumb

its not our job to have "empathy" for him. He's an elected official who isnt mentally fit to do his job, just like Biden

it’s not a lack of empathy to question someone’s cognitive fitness for office

You've got this!

Especially dressing like a janitor. It’s a great look for Washington.

@@Goldmember66better than looking like a tool

@@Tuturial464 oh my….devastating comment. 🤡🤪

Gotta love John. Certainly lowers the bar for becoming a senator.

@@MikeVallely-cx4ku so true. The bar is now on the ground.

😂😂😂 I’m gonna assume u got brain damage too 😂

Ok what actions has he implemented?

Satan is honest and Debbie Wasserman Shulz is a beauty...

Please keep your vote in PA. Don’t come south

Don't worry, Democrats are exalting the lowest common denominators to deity.

That’s not a good reason to supply a senator. It should probably be the best guy for the job. He’s definitely not that.

Fang gooo Vewwy Mushck

My Mom had 3 strokes where all affected her speech. She and Fetterman were lucky.

As pervasive as a trump may be A congress that puts party over country is probably worse

They also think that Trump won the 2020 elections

IM Canadian and I love your Senator also. What an incredible person.😊

The thing is, there is only one John Fetterman - they broke the mould after they made him!

​@@sheilaboston7051 I hope they didn't totally break that mold, we need more like him.

Lmao!

Are you there when he tosses word salad out that nobody can decipher? You have to be fake. Or really dumb. Especially if you watched his debate.

PITTSBURGH??? Oh no no, John is an Honorary Philadelphian!

Please stay in Pittsburg!!

I'm also dealing with bipolar and I spend way more time on the manic end and when the depression hits - my tools for that tend to be kinda rusty... It's been a long few weeks and I've used a mental health hotline (USA) several times and they are amazing and patient and kind - if you are struggling, this is an incredible resource!!

@@rhymeswiththirsty19 unfortunately, I tend to get the depressive phases more often than manic episodes, but my manic episodes are brutal, I can go 5-6 days without sleep and they last weeks. Worst one I had a total of 60 hours of sleep in 2 months, I quite literally nearly died. A little tip for helping with the depressive phases: give yourself clear mental commands like "sit up and get out of bed" and keep repeating them until your body obeys and remind yourself "I am in charge of this body, not my condition"

Yes we know that about 1/3rd of democrats have a mental illness or mental disability. That's why you vote for mentally disabled folks and think it's so great, just ignore that he hasn't done anything besides go on late night shows and say incoherent blathering nonsense.

I also suffer from bipolar depression, and I can't agree more.

This is BS and puts a stigma on people who are actually suffering from treatment resistant depression, as if they are not doing something right. There's a good chance you never had bipolar. It's possible that up to 80% of people being treated with anti-depressants are not clinically depressed. If depression goes away as easy as you say and "isn't likely to return" as you say, you were probably just going through normal human ups and downs. We live in a society where even people at the top of their game still reach for performance enhancing drugs. Depression is a lifelong disease, not simply being down due to normal life struggles.

Thank you for voting!!!

Stop telling silly lies, everyone knows that feterman. Does not have a body double, anyone can check this, so shop trying to gain attention,

yeah, this ............ good grief

More that lived off their parents till almost 50 ??? 🤔 .... REALLY ??? 🙄

@@daveoldaker5589 That's some word salad. Take it somewhere else.

@@DanielCooper1 so the truth can be a word salad ???? ... I see ya didn't prove it wrong because ya can't !!! .... LMAO 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

@@daveoldaker5589 how many times are you going to drop this reply? are you paid to astroturf or are you just that pathetic?

Retards?

Fuck yeah

More that lived off their parents till almost 50 ???? 🤔 ... What a low bar right there! 🙄 🙄

@@daveoldaker5589 and he still beat that carpetbagging clown the Rs tried to prop up.

Why not Marty Feldman?

100% agree

LOL. Not even close.

​@@meganann3876Yes, let's have a senator that is the exact replica of Biden. That makes sense.

Say what😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

AMEN Sharon. An authentic and decent human being, unlike so many pompous boneheads that make people hate politics.

I'm from PA And I'm embarrassed by him! He's a tool.

@@joannek6267 at this point i agree.😮‍💨 This was SSOOOOOOO many months ago, and so much crazy shit has happened, that it feels like years in the darkest timeline. 💙🩵💙

I can't thank you all enough for voting for him!! Salutations from Wisconsin!!

I would move just to have him as my senator....as opposed the two p.o.s.'es we have in Florida.

He can't speak at all lol. He's a vegetable 😂

LOL. That's hilarious.

@@garystahler9112 Why is it hilarious?

You know it's hilarious that GOP voters loved to bash this guy meanwhile they're perfectly fine with Moscow Mitch having his freezing moments and they were perfectly fine with putting up Mr. CTE

​@@VMan29397actually a lot of the hard core Trump nuts hate Mitch too... But that has more to do with the GOP"s disintegration than anything else.

They're talking to an entirely different audience... Cultivating a "tough guy" image for decades severly limits what you can say and do on camera, and the honesty of your communication!

And deflecting to Biden tripping. GOP response always equals “what would an as**ole say?”

Both the now parted Feinstein and soon-probably-parted Mitch McConnell lie/d endlessly that everything is fine with them while one - for weeks - looked like she was wheeled to the floor out of a hospice and the other one like they got up for lunch after getting their nappies changed in the nursing home.

Ditto.

If Fetterman is educating you, you have more problems than depression.

Jesus Christ is victory over depression too bad this wicked man turned his back on Jesus Christ like many who support the immorality of the democratic platform. He's a bad example of a man with no God conscience who puts himself on a pedestal who mocks others what he needs to look in the mirror and realize that he's not all that he's far from the truth he's far from with his. Only the willfully ignorant praises manager shows how many people are in the gutter spiracy ignorant lost souls who desperately need Jesus Christ.

As someone without stroke brain damage, it would be great if brain damaged people weren’t in charge of the way I’m supposed to live. Thanks!

People are depressed because they won't change their circumstances.

Problem is the big guy isn't Fetterman.

@@hermanchristian3536 yes, that’s what they’re talking about, him, pay attention

I wonder if he got hyperbaric oxygen therapy?

@@slbenson5206I wonder if there’s a god and if so why is he so cruel

I had an uncle that had the same type of side effects live 30-plus years after the stroke in his 50s. So let's hope John lives to be an old man as well.

Not communicating is a virtue. The only thing I can communicate to you people is showing you how stupid all of you are - not just by claiming it - but by proving it using logics, statistics and probability. Showing you how you constantly distort these.

Do you think your mom should've been in Congress after her stroke?

He's fine, obviously.

@@hermesmcclintok Considering Congress can't even elect a leader and their brain power is zero and full of Rethug dumbazzes yes. He would still be x10 better than them at governing. They aren't even governing and are just playing games. You also do realize it doesn't at all affect intelligence?

Good news. I've got Sherrod Brown atm and Ohio just stuck us with a 37 year old huckster in Vance. Support Brown all we can people. He's a good guy and Dems are short on players here in Ohio. Could mean the Senate majority.

Dr. Oz was the alternative. (((shudder)))

Mine too!

Me too! Glad my vote counted!

Same!

Hahahahha! Good one!

He's one of the "very less gifted".

He is living proof. As are those who voted for him.

Absolutely, if only he could form a complete sentence
