WaPo Journalist makes up a Fetterman quote and then deletes it.

Of course the internet is forever and this was captures before he got a chance to delete

If you actually listen to the troubled ramblings of the brain damaged Fetterman, you would not in a million years have heard what this person quoted.

The idea, of course, is to make is seem like Fetterman is completely normal, physically okay, and not suffering from the ill-effects of a massive stroke that left him pretty much unable to speak coherently.

At this point, everything he states is being read from notes. He says nothing on his own and does not appear to even understand much of what he is reading out loud. Even given the notes in front of him, what comes out is often times still completely incoherent as if he cannot really even understand what is written down, much less repeat it with any accuracy.
