John Fetterman - maybe there may be something more to it coming from an American with a green card holding spouse

37. Well, the one thing that makes this theory questionable are

The reported complaints from Fetterman's own staff, many of whom had been with the man for years. They spoke about the man's lack of interest in the Senate, not doing the work, not showing up for votes, musing about a run for the Oval Office. These were people who had worked with Fetterman, elbow-to-elbow, for a number of years.

A number of them (again reportedly) resigned their positions.

Are Trump and his minions capable of personal threats? Without a doubt.

Could Giselle Fetterman be vulnerable in the present political climate? Possibly, although I think she has some protection by her public persona and the fact she's actually married to a US Senator.

I'm more inclined to believe Fetterman's brain was scrambled after his stroke (which may have been far worse than disclosed), that the following depression made him vulnerable and receptive to Trump and the GOP's disingenuous wooing.

The whole thing is sad. Fetterman had a great opportunity to make a difference. Instead, he's become a public scold demeaning fellow Democrats who worked their butts off to get him into office.

As for you and your wife? I'm so sorry about what's happening--the fear and anxiety engendered by these cruel and extreme nativist attitudes and roundups and the raw racism fueling all of it. Hopefully, November will be a turning point when the brakes are applied and those responsible are held accountable.

Stay safe and hold on.
