21. Fetterman should have retired when he had his stroke (or was it a heart attack?)

I can't remember... but I do know he was unwell for quite some time. That should have been the hint that he started into politics a little too late in his life. He's just ruined his reputation and name for a long, long time. In addition to being someone who cried one thing politically when he wanted to be elected, and then turned around did the exact opposite once he WAS elected. Yes, I'm blaming it on the stroke. But damn... all these people who should have retired years ago... don't ANY of them have family that feels the need to be responsible for them?!
