Jentleson, speaking to New York Magazine, claimed that Fetterman continues to struggle with cognitive issues and has repeatedly ignored medical advice. He suggested that Fetterman failed to follow through on regular checkups and medication, raising questions about the senator’s ability to perform his duties effectively.
Fetterman Fires Back
When confronted about the explosive claims by NBC News, Fetterman dismissed the article as a “hit piece” from a “very left” outlet, rejecting the credibility of the anonymous sources cited. “It’s a one-source story with a couple anonymous sources. Hit piece from a very left publication. There’s really nothing more to say about that,” Fetterman said.
Alarming Allegations of Reckless Behavior
The New York Magazine article also included alarming claims about Fetterman’s behavior, suggesting that his staff viewed him as a risk behind the wheel. Jentleson alleged that Fetterman’s team became wary of riding in a car with him due to his “reckless” driving, adding to concerns about his overall fitness.
Additionally, the article claims that Fetterman purchased a firearm, a decision that reportedly concerned his staff. Jentleson said that while Fetterman assured him the weapon was secured in a biometric safe, the purchase itself was considered a red flag by his former aides.
Political Fallout
Fetterman’s support for Israel’s actions in Gaza may also have contributed to his sudden fall from grace among left-leaning allies. While Fetterman has championed progressive causes like abortion rights, transgender healthcare, and labor unions, his stance on Israel has made him a target for far-left activists who view such support as a betrayal.
As the political knives come out, it remains to be seen how much of a toll this controversy will take on Fetterman’s political career. But one thing is clear: his once solid base of support is starting to show cracks, and the fallout could be severe.
