Holy shit: Oz says his abortion position: should be between "a woman, her doctor, and local political leaders" #PASenDebate pic.twitter.com/UDiJvDYHYo

My God, the blue-check people here mocking John Fetterman during this debate, as if they are immune from the randomness of illness and infirmity. Time catches up with everyone, no exceptions. Few would have his courage to recover so publicly.

Fetterman to Oz during the debate: "He keeps talking about Bernie Sanders. You know, three years ago, he was on his show, and he hugged him, and he said, 'I love this guy.' Why don’t you pretend you live in Vermont instead of Pennsylvania and run against Bernie Sanders."

John Fetterman's opening statement during his debate with Mehmet Oz: "Let's also talk about the elephant in the room. I had a stroke. He never let me forget that." pic.twitter.com/RgHWf5i4qo

Fetterman’s aware he has auditory & processing issues as a result of stroke.
He could’ve refused to debate like some candidates have. Instead, he went out there and let voters see his challenges and healing process.
Support him or not, that takes courage, humility and honesty.

John Fetterman will recover from his stroke but Mehmet Oz will always be an asshole

$7.25 an hour is a disgrace. I believe all work has dignity, and every paycheck should too.
I’ve always supported raising the minimum wage to *at least* $15 an hour. #PASenateDebate

i personally think that fetterman speaking with a disability is less painful and off-putting to watch than oz’s cruel and smirking jabs at fetterman’s stroke https://t.co/yFJhozofWY

When Fetterman struggles with his speech, Dr. Oz struggles to control his smirk.

Fetterman spox @the_vello confirms they asked @NXSTMediaGroup to let reporters see the same screen that the candidates will see tonight in real time either inside the media tent or inside the studio. Oz campaign said no, he says,

Oz has been a hapless candidate, but benefited from relentless boosterism from Fox et al, while other media backgrounded his weak points (zero experience, record of medical charlatanism and dubious ethics). https://t.co/7HnTh7JBVp
