The Democrat party line on Fetterman seems to have gone out and Eric Michael Garcia, an MSNBC columnist, was more than happy to comply. He tweeted that wheelchairs and hearing aids are the same kinds of problems as Fetterman having had a stroke. We understand that everyone who has a stroke does not have permanent damage and there can be recovery, however that recovery can take a very long time, and sadly, some never recover. We having average intelligence and common sense also know that brain damage is nothing at all like having a wheelchair, blindness, or hearing issue. They all pose various obstacles to certain tasks, but not the same as BRAIN DAMAGE!
How is this any different from Tammy Duckworth or Madison Cawthorn needing a wheelchair? How is it different from many elderly Senators who need hearing aids? CORRECTED https://t.co/bCRl0IvCs3

Welp, Mr. Garcia, we did not know the lengths the democrats would succumb in order to defend a man who obviously has some sort of issues regarding his brain and processing speech. Would that be an issue if he were wanting to work in a position where he did not have to give speeches or debate policies? Not at all. However, he is literally running for a job that REQUIRES speech and debate. We hope he fully recovers and can do the things he wants with his life, but that does not mean he is the man for the job he is running for at the moment!
Tammy Duckworth is in the Senate because her opponent had a stroke and could no longer effectively represent Illinois

Let’s not bring FACTS into this discussion!
So why even bring up cognitive Trump or Biden are?
A wheelchair isn't the same thing. https://t.co/f3WxthZkRR

She has a valid point. Democrats who are unhappy with Biden bring up his mental abilities, and they hated Trump and brought it up every other day. If the mental ability of a President is the same as a wheelchair why has there ever been a discussion about either of them?
This tweet suggests that Eric is unaware of the actual function of the brain. https://t.co/MF82f9gpLI

In his defense, he does work for MSNBC so his brain may not function at the highest levels.
Well for starters they’re not cognitively impaired. Do people know what it means to have a stroke? What organ of the body that is involved? https://t.co/fxE8xI2wAs

Most do, Mr. Garcia however does not.
Not having the use of your brain is no different than not having the use of your legs. Fun new standard that will disappear the moment a Republican tries it. https://t.co/FbgGMOyoRZ

EXACTLY! We have said it many times but if it were not for the double standards, Democrats would have no standards at all.
Because a wheelchair does not change the fundamental senatorial function, which is literally speech and debate. This is such a ridiculous comparison, and it comes off as you desperate to cover for the Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor. Stop it. https://t.co/azbEX3kcEE

That summed it up perfectly.
If you don't understand the concept of brain damage, you might have it. https://t.co/aeeFCDRoFF

We agree! Although we do not believe Garcia has actual brain damage, we do believe his brain has become part of the hive mind and the Democrat Hive brain set out the talking point to compare actual brain damage to any other disability and Mr. Garcia took that and never questioned the validity of the statement.
Maybe ask a few questions and think it through before tweeting something so ridiculous next time Mr. Garcia?
