Joe Biden defended Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman as ‘my kind of guy’ after a barrage of criticism and doubt ensued over his fitness for office after the effects of his stroke were put on full display during a debate with Republican opponent Dr. Mehmet Oz last week.
When visiting a polling station in Delaware on Saturday, Biden told members of the press gathered that Fetterman is ‘just getting better and better.’
‘I thought he knew what he was doing, I thought he was strong,’ Biden said when reflecting on his rally with the Democratic candidate on Friday.
‘Look, Fetterman is Pennsylvania. Fetterman is everything that he appears to be,’ he added while taking off his sunglasses.
Biden participated in early voting at a polling place near his Wilmington, Delaware home on Saturday. He was joined by his granddaughter Natalie Biden, 18, the daughter of Beau and Hallie, who was voting for the first time.
‘Fetterman is my kind of guy,’ Biden said to press after casting his ballot. ‘And I think he’s going to be fine.’
