Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) said in an interview that aired Sunday that he believed opening up to the public about his mental health struggles earlier this year would negatively impact his career.

In an interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker on “Meet the Press,” Fetterman opened up about his battle with clinical depression earlier this year and urged those facing mental health issues to seek help. He said that for the first couple of weeks while being treated for depression at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, he felt scared about sharing his experiences publicly.

    I’ve always been voting for the least pissed in cereal but the difference is you’re telling me it’s fine and I’m telling you it’s not fine.

    Submitting to the idea that there will always be piss in your cereal is a dark reality I refuse to accept.

      The problem with your analogy is for you it’s piss, but a reasonable person who’s actually fairly close to you ideologically can come to a different conclusion. But you both like cereal, and maybe that’s more important.

        It’s a genocide and he’s supporting it. Yes, the analogy isn’t perfect but trying to pick it apart now is just semantics. He is defending the indefensible and by doing so joins the fascists and zionists who want nothing more than Palestine to be glassed to make way for Jewish settlers. This isn’t a game of Civilization, I don’t give a shit if Hamas gave them a Casus Belli, this is genocide and it’s sickening.
