Donald Trump Jr. mocks John Fetterman as ‘brain dead’ and has ‘mush for brains’ at Miami MAGA rally

Donald Trump Jr. Derided Pennsylvania Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman as “brain dead” on Sunday as he took the stage in Miami at his father’s Make America Great Again rally.

It is the third rally the former president is organizing in three days and his next to last before the controversial midterm elections on Tuesday, November 8.

During his preliminary remarks, Donald Jr. Democrats for rising crime rates across the country, including Fetterman for his tenure as mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania.

Like many Republicans, he also suggested that Fetterman couldn’t handle the job of senator because of the auditory processing and speech problems he had after a stroke in May.

“The Democrats want to release violent offenders,” said Donald Jr., including “John Fetterman, the brain-dead potential senator from Pennsylvania.”

The crowd that stood outside the Miami-Dade County Fair & Exposition Center chased the name of the populist progressives.

Junior later came back to his comments about Fetterman: “We have to bust the bullshit to talk about what we’re dealing with. I mean, I’ve used Fetterman’s example before.’

He referred to similar comments he made in late October.

“I believe that if you want to be in the United States Senator, you have to have basic cognitive function,” said Donald Jr.

“The media, they’re going after me, they say he’s capable, which means he’s racist against people with disabilities.”

He continued: “It’s not like he’s in a wheelchair and he can think, but he’s not able to form a sentence.”

It comes after Fetterman accidentally said he was against abortion at a Saturday rally in Philadelphia.

“I’m walking on Roe v. Wade. I’m celebrating the passing of Roe v. Wade,” the Pennsylvania lieutenant governor said.

Donald Jr. referred to the incident at his meeting, opining, “They will put him there to vote no matter how Chuck Schumer tells him. You don’t have to think, you just have to be able, willing, show up and raise your hand.’

“And his comments about Roe v Wade yesterday don’t even seem like he can do that right,” he said.

“Today we are dealing with a Democratic Party that does not believe that a United States senator should have no brains.”

Fetterman, who takes on famed physician Dr. Mehmet Oz, may have tried to say that his opponent is “celebrating the downfall of Roe v. Wade.”

Fetterman and his Republican rival were neck and neck in the bitterly fought race, but his performance when it comes to public speaking has sparked concern after a number of garbled replies, much of which was attributed to his recovery from his stroke.

Last week, Oz surpassed John Fetterman for the first time in the polls, just days before the midterm elections and a week after their debate, where the lingering effects of his Democratic rival’s stroke were fully visible.

The two-point gap — 48 percent to 46 percent — remains a steady improvement for Oz, whose support from likely Pennsylvania voters has increased 5 percentage points since September. according to The Hill/Emerson College polls.

The Real Clear Politics poll average has Oz leading by just 0.1 percent and is expected to win — even if it’s the narrowest margin by then.

It also reflects a national trend as Republicans rise in the polls, with some tying or catching up with their Democratic challengers in the days leading up to the election after months of lag.

Meanwhile, Fetterman’s support is up just 1 percent from the September poll from October 28-31. The split between the two candidates is within the poll’s plus or minus 3 percentage point margin of error.

Consistently, this particular poll showed Fetterman, 53, ahead of Oz, 62.

A televised debate show last month shocked some viewers and only sowed more concerns about his ability to hold political office.

“Hello, good night everyone,” Fetterman said before discussing his health. “Let’s talk about the elephant in the room, too: I had a stroke. [Oz] never let me forget that.’

At one point, Fetterman was asked to clarify his stance on fracking, as moderators be on an interview from 2018 where the lieutenant governor spoke widely against the practice, but no ban.

“I support fracking – I don’t, I don’t – I support fracking, and I support fracking,” he replied to voters’ sheer confusion.

In the course of the debate, Fetterman was twice hesitant to make his full medical record public.

“My doctor ultimately believes I’m fit to serve and that’s what I believe,” Fetterman said.

Ahead of the debate, Fetterman’s campaign had tempered expectations by saying there would be “uncomfortable pauses” and “delays and errors” as the Democrat read captioning due to his auditory processing problem.

When asked about small business owners concerned about raising the minimum wage, he said, “We all need to make sure that everyone who works can — that’s the most American convention, that if you work full-time, you should be able to live with dignity is true.

“We cannot allow companies to be subsidized by individuals who simply cannot avoid paying, not paying their own way,” he said.

A day later, Fetterman delivered a brisk 13-minute speech in Pittsburgh as his campaign tried to downplay Tuesday’s performance, saying that Fetterman was always bad at debates and that the closed captioning system he used as a resource was faulty.
