Reply to comment by [deleted] in If Fetterman resigns, who would Shapiro appoint? I’m kind of obsessed with Giselle Fetterman. by [deleted]

Thank you. This is the most accurate depiction regarding this situation that I've read on this sub.

On top of all that I can't imagine the pressure he is feeling. After his stroke everyone said oh he's fine he'll bounce back in no time. No need to focus on rehabilitation rather than a grueling campaign schedule. Now he's in the hospital for depression and everyone is saying oh he's fine he'll bounce back in no time. It is insanity and quite cruel. Let the man breathe and focus on his well being. Not on when he will be returning to Senate. Most importantly for the sake of his children.

You are right. It is insane. Humanity has been lost in US politics, and if there was ever a neon billboard spelling it out, this is it.

The poor guy suffered a life-threatening and life changing health crisis. He had very little time to cope with the situation and process. He was very publicly mocked for his health situation, for needing accommodations, and for other things like he can not control like his looks. Now, his wife is being made out to be this heartless wench for helping their children cope. She has one loved one in crisis and is trying to protect the rest of the family.

Maybe he can continue his career with the right skills and support, but it shouldn't surprise anyone if he makes the decision to step away. I really hope he does. He and his family deserve peace.
