All you crazies who want him removed, please crawl back under your rock. As long as he occupies the seat he can't vote and his otherwise unelectable radical wife will not take the seat.

If he were to die, would Schumer let him vote?
Fetterman will never get out of the hospital. In fact, we should demand proof of life now. He is as likely dead as not and the pedo death cult could be hiding it until they can use it.
The thickness of his skull is expected to make the ChatGPT install tricky.
Looking past the medical, would this affect votes in the Senate in the coming weeks? Basically we only have 99 senators?
Changes the calculus in the Senate. From a 51-49 split, they now have 50 votes and so can no longer afford to lose any votes (Sienema, Manchin). Further, because there cannot be a tied vote unless another Senator is unable or unwilling to vote, the VP will not vote.
Ah yes that's fascinating and not something I was cognizant of: the VP is strictly a tie-breaking vote and not an additional vote!

"The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided."
This actually places all the power in the hands of Sinema and Manchin again. Oh boy is there gonna be some salt over that, especially with Gallego challenging Sinema and already appearing to be a fundraising powerhouse.
