Reply to comment by DinosaurDied in Fetterman/Oz Debate…In my humble opinion. Who’s the best choice for PA? by T-Hi

It’s not a valid reason for a candidate who’s job is to talk and listen to be able to talk and listen?

Would you say someone who is deaf should not serve in congress because they cannot verbally communicate with constituents?

If that deaf person couldn’t articulate thoughts and had issues with his brain, yes.

Are you saying that he can't read and type?

Are you saying that constituents will fly (or drive) to D.C. to meet their state Senator face-to-face?

In unrelated news, I have some swamp land to sell you...

He can have aides that can translate and help. He still can listen and talk as proven last night. Can he keep up in a debate with a tv personality doctor? No, not many people are that smart. But Fetterman isn’t a grifter who spent his career lying to people so he will never be as fast as Oz.

So he needs the help of aides to do his job properly? He can’t handle debates which he will be doing every day?

By definition a jabroni is a foolish or contemptible person. By judging a person based on their disability and excluding their intellectual capacity and indomitable spirit suits you well. So please vote Oz. Vote jabroni.

I don’t think you understand what senators do. All senators have huge teams of aids. And those aids have lobbyists to help with the pull of doing their job in many cases.

Also you don’t debate each other every day in the senate. Any “debating” they do is written speech they get to do in almost all cases. Whether it be speaking on legislation, or interviewing candidates on panels.

The American political debate format is hilarious and stupid to start. It takes a sharp wit for sure but discussing the economic crisis in Venezuela in 30 seconds is impossible to actually get into.

So if senators roles were to sell you a solution on global inflation in 30 seconds or less, than Oz is the choice. Too bad the point isn’t to be a snake oil salesman to things that don’t have 30 second solutions.
