Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday admitted in a hot-mic moment that Pennsylvania Senate Democratic candidate John Fetterman hurt his chances with a shaky debate performance Tuesday night.
"It looks like the debate didn't hurt us too much in Pennsylvania as of today," Schumer, D-N.Y., told President Biden on the tarmac during Biden's trip to New York on Thursday. "So that's good."
Fetterman often struggled to communicate during his debate against Republican candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz due to lingering effects from a stroke he suffered earlier this year. Fetterman needed closed captioning to understand comments from Oz and the moderators during the debate.
Schumer and Democrats are in a neck-and-neck fight with Republicans over who will control the Senate next Congress, with Pennsylvania one of the races that could tip the majority one way or another.

Schumer knows he is losing his gavel.
They will send reasonable bills to Biden then blast him if he does not sign them for the good of the people. If he doesn't the Dems will lose the WH in 2024. Bills like immigration reform and wall completion money. Bills like increasing oil leasing on federal land and completion of the XL pipeline. Things that Voters want.
