Sen. John Fetterman joked about his stroke as a way to get out of responding to a man who interrupted his comments at a Democratic rally Sunday in Pennsylvania.
Senator John Fetterman, D-Pa, speaks at a campaign event held for Pennsylvania judicial candidates at Snipes Farm in Morrisville, Pa., Saturday, Oct. 28, 2023.
Initially, Mr. Fetterman didn’t respond, but then he said, “The joke’s on you. I had a stroke. I can’t fully understand what you are saying.”Videos of the incident on social media show the man being escorted out of the event by security.They wrote that his support for Israel “has felt like a gutting betrayal,” because on his campaign trail his “overarching promise was to ‘Forgotten Communities,’ — people and places that get overlooked, written off, and left behind.
But, on Oct. 18, Mr. Fetterman rebuffed such calls, posting on X that “now is not the time to talk about a ceasefire.”
