Senator John Fetterman opened up to CBS about his time at Walter Reed, where he's been receiving treatment for depression since February. A lot of revelations surfaced from the interview, including a new deficiency doctors discovered.

Unclear what sparked Fetterman's depression, but it sounds like he'd battled it for years ... even before he ran for the open PA Senate seat. The news report also suggests his stroke from last year -- which has affected his ability to communicate -- might've played a part.

Another interesting nugget from this sit-down ... the Walter Reed docs have found a serious new hearing deficit in him, although it's not said explicitly if it's permanent or not. In any case, it sounds like Sen. Fetterman will continue using closed captioning devices for the time being -- which he'd already been doing since coming back from his stroke recovery.

Thought these people should be of sound mind. Oops I guess I was wrong. I guess if the last president was a bit on the crazy side you don’t have to really worry about the senate

Can’t do the job just like we thought. He can’t do the job! Duhhh

Is that even him? 😂😂😂

And this is who the fine people of PA elected as their rep. Clowns.

I don't watch that network. Did he admit that he was a dupe for the Democratic Party? That he literally sacrificed his life for it?

Completely unfit for office. But I know that matters not if he can have a title.

Woke Pennsylvania

Still better than Oz

I am a therapist and if I admitted to what he is going through, I would be removed from my position to focus solely on me. It’s ethically required. He’s a senator and yet he is still working? No. Step back and do the ethical thing.

Better senator and person than all Republicans.

Con

How can you run your State when you have your own demons to deal with? Come on, know your limitations and put someone in the position who can handle the stress and is able to make decisions for the betterment of the state.

Do the taxpayers get their money back for all the work he isn’t capable of doing?

Irresponsible caption (politically)

Republicans love kicking someone when they’re down

Only a moron would believe that guy to be Fetterman Whos is this fraud

Why the hell did you run at the first place if you're depressed?

Hard to believe a bunch of people came out and said 'That's my guy. Voting for him' Big time 'Presidential Election 2020' vibes

Remission for depression? Hmmmmm

Resign

“Talks”

He literally was running against Dr.OZ… how do you expect him not to win

Why is TMZ supporting a fraud? New world order stuff!

Lol yet when people pointed out his mental state could be issue y’all said he was fine lol

That's not fi fo fum

Brain deficiency

America always electing the best people

We are not a serious country anymore. Democrats have turned us into a joke.

Some people will do anything to get out of work.

Democrats should be ashamed for this

Woody Harrelson?

Good job Pennsylvania

Do you think it’s remotely normal this man is a senator? Do you actually think this man is fit to be in a position of power? Applaud him for getting help if you want but holy shit this man cannot be a senator he’s got massive issues

This ogre should be in a mental institution. Instead he was installed as a US Senator. What a country we live in

Ratio

He should resign and take care of his health.

This poor guy is unfit to serve, he will be very easily manipulated by his fellow Democrats for the sake of a yes vote, he needs to be given a cognitive test and if he doesn't pass send him home.

He’s definitely not fit for office

Dudes unfit to work a Mc Donald’s , but then again Mc Donald’s is too difficult for Joe Biden guaranteed

What a joke TMZ has become!!! Fetterman didn’t win. The Dems are a bunch of liars & cheaters!! Made America the laughing stock of the world 🌍

BS HE IS A GIVER...NOT A GETTER..

I wonder if this had to do with the stroke he suffered from the vaccine? I wish we would have know about that before they elected him.

He better look for his wife’s videotapes, heard she was getting some love shack action

Are they warming up his seat at the White House for presidency too?

He’s a walking PSA for anti-vaxxers

I don’t believe a thing he says, or the lame “depression” story they be pushing

He’s awesome 👏🏻

Completely unfit to hold public office.

Man up

Hopefully those pulling his strings aren't as 'deficient'

So this is what the democrats voted in

Brainwaves?

That’s not him. We’re not fooled by this.

Suck it up buttercup

Not qualified to do his job but that is how this soon to be third world country operates today.

This guy has no business in congress

He should never have been the nominee. I feel bad for him, but he's not capable and it's pretty obvious things were hidden during the election.

bunch of inbreeders

At least his hearing loss was iffy silky found by the doctors

This is why I not only hate but despise politics. There is no reason whatsoever this man should be in office, not because of serious health now mental issues. Yet TheDemocrats keep propping him up like 'Weekend at Bernie's' same as they did with Justice Ginsberg.

They're going to kill that man in the name of politics. The memorials will be super touching. They probably have them written out already.

Its ashame for him But He needs ti be replace He’s not mentally fit to hold office Well then again He’s being told what to do And When to do it

Amazing doctors accomplished the head transplant

That’s not John fetterman…

He’s awesome for sharing his story.

Wishing him great love.

What a great interview he’s to be admired for his courage

God bless you 💗🙏

Some people will do anything to get out of work.
