Despite our political differences we share a common goal. We must demand competent, honest, persons of all types, religions, orientations representing OUR best interests.
These political jobs were never intended to be lifetime occupations. Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell have both been in government since 1974.

According to the article in the Philadelphia Inquirer, Fetterman never left his truck. Pursuing a person in a motor vehicle is clearly not "standing your ground".

How many people of any color or political affiliation currently running for office in Pennsylvania have pursued and held another human at gunpoint ?

A letter to the editor published in today's NY post addresses your points pretty well.
Fretting over Fett
This issue with the competency of John Fetterman in Pennsylvania highlights what is wrong in American government (“Struggle to speak and understand,” Oct. 12).
Medical or mental deficiencies are sad and tragic in everyday life, but in a situation where you are involved in decisions that can effect the entire nation, and sometimes the world, sympathy can have no bearing.
Governing requires the brightest and strongest individuals we can find — not just anyone who runs for whatever reason. As current events show, when we elect individuals based on feelings and emotion and their mental and physical competence comes into question, we invite chaos.
Term limits, age restrictions and transparency regarding physical and mental acuity should be bedrock requirements when dealing with political candidates. Americans deserve no less.

Reply to comment by Zmoser1794 in I agree wholeheartedly with this assessment. A big no for Dr. Schnozz. by CQU617
Rather than pay the disputed taxes in a timely manner the party allows the taxes for the year to go into arrears.
Going into arrears typically carries a minimal percentage of the total as a penalty that's added to the tax bill owed for that year.
Typically there are a stated number of years of arrears that must be exceeded before the municipality can begin to foreclose because of delinquent taxes.
For example if you are in arrears for 2019, 2020, 2021 and the municipality has a three year grace period, When you got your 2022 tax bill you could pay the outstanding balance and penalty for 2019 and stave off the sheriff's sale for another year.
In most communities there is a "newspaper of record" where tax arrears are posted on a periodic basis. In most communities it's considered "trashy" to be on that list.
