He doesn’t have a hard time speaking. He needs reasonable accommodations, like many disabled Americans do every day, during interviews because his auditory processing was affected by the stroke. He can use that as he recovers and do the job just fine. Many people with disabilities do their jobs just fine every day.

Yep. I'm a type one diabetic and I get time and a half for my tests because if my blood sugar levels are outta range, it makes it way harder for me to think clearly. Doesn't mean I didn't study enough - did well in undergrad, getting my Master's now :)

Edit: wanted to add, Fetterman needing closed captioning isn't any different than me needing extra time on tests

He said on his own that he has a hard time putting thoughts and sentences together.

Yup strokes take time to recover from. But he’s ethically the same candidate he was before who is aligned with the values I care about. Therefore I’m voting for him, knowing he may have some health issues as many Americans do, but he will still do his best for Pennsylvanians just like he has as Lt. Gov.
