Concerns Mount Over Senator John Fetterman's Health and Fitness for Office
- Former chief of staff Adam Jentleson publicly raised concerns in May 2023 about Senator John Fetterman's mental health and erratic behavior.
- These concerns followed Fetterman's 2022 stroke and a more serious 2023 hospitalization for mental health issues, though Fetterman and his wife denied most claims.
- Staffers reported Fetterman exhibited dangerous driving, isolation, cognitive decline, and bizarre actions between late 2023 and 2024, including a June 2024 car crash at excessive speed.
- Jentleson expressed serious concern about Fetterman's well-being, warning that if his condition continues to decline, he may not be around much longer, while Fetterman dismissed these claims as a "hit piece" and stated that his actual doctors have confirmed he is in good health.
- These developments intensified debate about Fetterman's fitness for office and raised questions about his political future as he prepares for reelection in 2028.
