Smiling Fetterman Asks Oz If He'd Mind Slowly Repeating Concession For 5th Time



PITTSBURGH–Speaking to the Republican candidate over the phone early Wednesday morning, a smiling John Fetterman reportedly asked Mehmet Oz if he would mind slowly repeating his concession for the fifth time.

“I don’t know if you knew this, but I’ve been experiencing some auditory processing difficulties–would you mind repeating yourself again?” said Fetterman, who settled into an armchair as the phone call with his defeated opponent passed the 45-minute mark.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t quite get that. A little slower please. You said something about losing? I just want to be absolutely certain I’m hearing this right.”

At press time, Fetterman suggested that perhaps he could accept the concession in person if he were ever in New Jersey.

It's getting really hard to tell satire from reality

Still pretty funny. The Onion gets a wide berth from me.

The last line was the best.
