PA: National Capital of Stupid

, , ,

Stephen Helgeson shares my total astonishment that even the idiots in the major cities would vote to place in the United States Senate a candidate so grotesque and manifestly unqualified for the office of local dogcatcher as John Ftterman.

Pennsylvania is a very diverse place, and it is a state with a bifurcated political landscape. Most of rural PA is conservative, but hardcore liberals populate its cities. The state is an energy state with abundant resources, and it is home to a prestigious private ivy league research university, the University of Pennsylvania (located in Philadelphia) along with Carnegie Mellon, Swarthmore, and Villanova. It’s proud of its working class and its historical intellectual prowess, but the recent mid-term victory of a bumbling, oafish hipster politician John Fetterman, over a medical doctor of national repute is puzzling and reflects the rampant spread of stupid.

This week, the citizens of Pennsylvania stole the loving cup of stupid from the citizens of another politically calcified state, New Mexico — one that has consistently voted for Democrats in over nine decades of its political life. The distinction and trophy for ‘Capital of Stupid’ now rests with the citizens of William Penn’s home with the election of Democrat John Fetterman to the U.S. Senate. Why stupid you say? What is wrong with John Fetterman? It’s simple. Fetterman has never held a real private sector job in his life (he is currently lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania). He has enjoyed financial support from his parents most of his adult life. He prefers hooded sweatshirts and arm tattoos to conventional business suits and claims to be for ‘the little guy.’ Prior to becoming the lieutenant governor, his only other job was Mayor of Braddock, PA where he did nothing to improve the town’s condition. (It is thought that the town actually improved after he left office.)

Fetterman suffered a stroke in May of 2022 which left him with an auditory processing disorder which affected how he handled information and how he spoke. His opponent, a well-known television personality and respected medical doctor, Republican Mehmet Oz, was at a distinct disadvantage. He couldn’t point out the obvious about Fetterman’s inability to understand and speak (and how that would disqualify him from being a senator), but had to tread carefully lest he stimulate a ‘sympathy vote’ for the man. To compound Oz’s problems, Fetterman refused to debate the doctor until the eleventh hour on October 25th, only two weeks before the election after thousands of mail-in ballots had already been cast. Had many of those early voters seen the debate they would have viewed a severely, physically-compromised man struggle to string together a coherent sentence and stay on message.

Does that make Pennsylvania voters stupid? In a word, yes. Stupid because they chose political ideology and a deeply flawed candidate over a good one. They chose to perpetuate a status quo that will cost their state hundreds of thousands of jobs, do nothing to stop the millions that are crashing our southern border, ignore the mounting crime rates in Pennsylvania, not to mention the entire country, and insure that America becomes dependent on foreign oil producers.

I have known so many people in my life who vote Democrat because:
Their parents did
They are in a union
They are stupid and susceptible to the Democrat propaganda
they are scared to buck the friends and co-workers who are flaming liberals
etc.

If Putin came here and ran for office as a Democrat some 35-42% of the voters would vote for hi simply because he was a “D”.

[…] Never Yet Melted calls Pennsylvania the national capital of stupid […]

Democrat John Fetterman is going to the US Senate for one REASON: Democrats Cheat. The election was rigged chiefly with Mail In Voting & Ballot Harvesting. Democrat officials mail out massive numbers of ballots to people who would never bother to vote, and their operatives collect those ballots and run up the score. Democrats also Vote the Dead and Ineligible as they have for centuries. How does this end? History tells us: there will be blood.

Screw the dog catcher; but love his minders.
They sagely refused to debate until it was too late to matter.
And doublescrew the cretins who agreed. Theyre the ones who lost the election for Oz

My dad’s generation said “give a fool enough rope and he will hang himself.” My generation is tired of waiting for that; I’m all in for giving fools a hand.

Just Pennsylvania is stupid? Three quarters of voters say the country is “headed in the wrong direction”, yet they voted to keep the same people steering the ship.
It’s like a victim of spousal abuse with bruises all over her telling police that her husband is a good man when they show up at the house.

there’s just something about a goatee that lifts a regular guy out of the ordinary and into the so-good-looking-it-hurts orbit.
