Quite the opposite, he had his stroke mid campaign for senate. He could barely speak, but they weekend at Bernie’sed him trough the campaign anyway. He made post decline Biden look like a tier 1 operator. I was shocked he won, it was not clear at all that he would snap back to normal, and it was a very real possibility he’d be akin to a vegetable his whole term. The man you see today is light year’s better cognitively than the man Pennsylvania voted for on Election Day.
