Not a whole lot the left and right can agree on these days but I think "Fuck this dude for bitching about missing his beach vacation because he has to do the job he was elected for" is fairly bipartisan.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

This reminds me of Cruz being forced to not go to Cancun while his state froze to death.
Actually, he was already in Cancun and had to return. He blamed that on his daughter because apparently he had to "escort" her to Cancun.
Though his complaint is that him voting no doesn’t matter because of numbers
It becomes more defeatist than whiny
FUCK YOU DO YOUR FUCKING JOB
But have you considered how this is hurting him personally? His poor little fascist feelings?

He’s being paid over 100k a year to be there right?
"I’m gonna vote no, there’s no drama, we know the votes are going to go.”
TBH I was relieved to hear he wasn't voting with the Republicans this time.
i stitched these two articles together with gimp because there was another 2 articles between them
I don't think I hate a single Republican fascist more than I hate this worthless fuck.
It would have been better for him and everyone else if that tumor had killed him instead of turning him into a lazy melancholic genocide fetishist.
Poor little brain-damaged baby!
Just read the section on his mayorship of Braddock. This bud has been problematic for a long time. I don't think he's gone crazy lately, instead people got sold a counterfeit product during his federal election that they didn't look much into.
Yeah some more news did a good segment on him, explaining how he was always pretty crappy: https://youtu.be/28M_zkoAGQM

aww, you poor flagpole.
quit.
Feel free to fuck off and die at any time.
That's exactly what the Republicans are saying.
His brain damage turned him Republican.
That's a cop-out, he was doing unhinged shit well before the stroke.

This asshole really needs to resign, if this is how he feels about doing his fucking job. If you want to spend time with your family at the beach so badly...by all means, get the fuck out of office and make room for someone who actually gives a shit.
Stroke personality changes are very real. I feel for him in that regard
Stop shaming stroke victims.
Fetterman was always like this.
just gently suggesting both can be true - he was problematic before the stroke, but the stroke could also be playing a role in what by all accounts seems to be a change in behavior and long-held policy positions which started after the stroke. Even Fetterman himself thinks the stroke is what was responsible for this change: https://newrepublic.com/post/182504/john-fetterman-abandon-progressives-bill-maher

Take a job that doesn’t fuck your schedule then. Nobody wants you there anyway.
Does two strokes cancel out? Because I think he should get another stroke to see if he suddenly becomes a progressive lol
I think that would just make him more republican.
Fetterman just needs to go the fuck away for his sake and the sake of others. It's obvious he isn't all there mentally and fucking hates being there so he should make room for someone who is mentally capable and wants to be there.
Cry harder you fucking MAGAt in "sheep's clothing"...
“I’m gonna vote no, there’s no drama, we know the votes are going to go.”
Yeah, I'll believe that when I see it you brain-addled MAGAt-surrogate fucking traitorous turd. 🤡 🖕 💩 💩
me and my 7 allowed days of PTO a year are gonna tell you to go find a fat cactus to sit on
Welcome to taste of our world, Fetterman.
You get beach vacations? I don't even get 5 minutes alone to masturbate. Gotta do it on the city bus like everybody else...
Look at this motherfucker bitching but can afford bus fare.
I jerk off in the library where it’s free.
I'm not allowed in libraries, look at this asshole bitching while he can jack off indoors. Try jacking off in the woods, get back to me.
I call that a posh wank, Rockefeller.

If brain damage wasn't bad enough... It turns you into a miserable republican fuck.
Stuck with this mofo for another four years.
Not sure Dr. Oz would have been any better, though...
That's the level of copium I've been mainlining since his heel turn. Like I didn't want McCormick in the primary, and I definitely didn't want fucking Oz, but this is pretty bad.

Aww, does someone have to do his job?
A lobster would be a better representative than Fetterman and his MAGA brain damage at this point.
If lifes and even Democracy itself is at stake, this should not be an issue.
Someone call the "whaaambulance" for Festerman.
