'Chill out': John Fetterman whacks 'vultures' calling on Biden to drop out Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) on Friday hammered Democrats who are calling on President Joe Biden to drop out of the race after his widely panned debate performance on Thursday evening. Writing on Twitter, Fetterman pushed back at Democrats who are anonymously sniping at Biden and he used his own experience with a poor debate performance back in 2022 to emphasize that such moments do not doom campaigns. "I refuse to join the Democratic vultures on Biden’s shoulder after the debate," he wrote. "No one knows more than me that a rough debate is not the sum total of the person and their record. Morning-after thermonuclear beat downs from my race from the debate and polling geniuses like 538 predicted l’d lose by 2. And what happened? The only seat to flip and won by a historic margin (+5)." He then urged his fellow Democrats to buck up and bluntly said, "Chill the f--k out." Fetterman in the fall of 2022 was recovering from a stroke that he had suffered earlier in the year and at the time he had difficulty aurally processing questions, which led him to at times miss words while speaking haltingly during a debate with rival Mehmet Oz. Fetterman nonetheless handily defeated Oz weeks later.
