Is John Fetterman Tone Deaf Like Nina Turner?

 John Fetterman makes peace with Malcolm Kenyatta and Conor Lamb. Can he win over Black voters, though?

The Republicans are likely going to start engaging with the Black community. Even though, they will deliver divisise noise, Pennsylvania is state they like to keep a hold of knowing that one of their white nationalist buddies are leaving the scene. 

Sen. Karen Toomey (R-PA) is retiring and Republicans feel like they can keep a hold of the seat knowing that they have this oaf as the Democratic nominee.

But their nominee is a piece of shit. It appears to be a battle between douchebags. 

Lt. Gov. John Fetterman and Mehmet Oz are both unlikeable. I detest both of them with a passion.

However, given the choice between the two, if I lived in Pennsylvania, I would go with Fetterman handily.

I would have to grumble while voting for him, though!

Black voters are not really into this guy. I mean this guy is totally Nina Turner when it comes to understanding Black voters. He only wants to appeal to white voters. 

Fetterman rallies are white as snow.

Rep. Connor Lamb (D-PA) was considered the better candidate and he lost because the junk food media failed to vet Fetterman. However, now that we have Fetterman, we have to stomach it. The far right has already called him the Bernie Sanders socialist loving guy who chased a Black jogger with a pump action gun. They said he is a loser who got lucky.

They even going after his health.

Before he won the nomination, Fetterman had a stroke. He recovered and he's back to campaigning. This continues to be an issue with some voters.

His opponent Oz is a bone fide idiot. He gave up his TV show to run on behalf a washed up politician and an annoying media agitator. He is the latest celebrity turned politician who believes he's entitled to the seat. Oz endorsed by Washed Up 45 has been using Softball Hannity's strategy to target Fetterman.

Fetterman never addressed his days as the mayor of Braddock and the infamous chase of a Black jogger.

In January 2013, when Fetterman was the mayor of the Pittsburgh-area steel town of Braddock, Pennsylvania, he reportedly heard gunshots near his home and claimed he saw a man dressed in black and wearing a face mask running in the street. The then-mayor claimed the man was running toward an elementary school — this was weeks  after the Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.

Fetterman said he chased the man in his pickup truck and detained him with his 20-gauge shotgun until the police arrived. That man, who was an unarmed jogger named Christopher Miyares, provided a very different account of the incident. He said Fetterman had pointed the gun to his chest and he definitely knew he was Black, both of which Fetterman denied.

Nevertheless, Miyares, now incarcerated for an unrelated offense, supports Fetterman in the Senate race. “Even with everything I said, it is inhumane to believe one mistake should define a man’s life,” Miyares said in a letter to The Philadelphia Inquirer last year. “I hope he gets to be a senator.”

The Republicans have already used this play in order to keep Black voters away from the polls.

Right now, I have the race as Lean Democrat.

Fetterman did poorly in Pittsburgh, Scranton and Philadelphia with Black voters. He better start making moves to the Black church and prove his vote will matter.
