The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Remember how Dems loved Fetterman, when he was first elected?


Yes, but then he suffered brain damage and became a Republican. 😊

"U.S. Senator John Fetterman suffered a serious, near-fatal ischemic stroke in May 2022 caused by a blood clot. The event left him with lingering auditory processing issues and aphasia, which impact his ability to rapidly process and produce spoken language.Key details of his condition and medical history:

Stroke Impact: The stroke was caused by atrial fibrillation and an enlarged heart. While he received rapid treatment, the lasting neurological effects required him to use real-time captioning tools during his work in the Senate.

Mental Health Struggles: Fetterman openly documented his subsequent battles with severe depression and anxiety, spending over 40 days in the traumatic brain injury unit at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for treatment in 2023.

Subsequent Issues: He has a history of heart conditions and was briefly hospitalized after a fall associated with a ventricular fibrillation flare-up, though his implanted pacemaker/defibrillator safely restored his heart's rhythm."
