Fox News' lead medical analyst Dr. Mark Siegel vociferously attacked John Fetterman's "heart condition" a day before the election, claiming the odds are bleak that the Pennsylvania Democratic candidate will survive his term in office if elected.

Joining Tucker Carlson, Siegel went doom and gloom on the prospect of John Fetterman even living for the next five years.

"If your blood clot comes from the heart, you have about less than a 60% chance, more than a 60% chance (Siegel got confused momentarily) of either not living five years or having another stroke within those five years, greater than 60% chance," Siegel said. "So I say to the voters of Pennsylvania tonight who are ready to check a box tomorrow -- you, should consider a statistic like that."

Dr. Siegel suddenly turned into Karl Rove and Sean Hannity in the blink of an eye as he issued his dire proclamation.

"That could mean that he wouldn't survive the term,' Siegel hypothesized.

What a piece of sh*t.

Dr. Siegel, have you no shame?

Marc Siegel needs his medical license suspended and reviewed by the NY State Medical Board (You can file one here) for diagnosing a candidate on television without being the primary doctor or having the medical records that he does not support the day before an election.

A politically motivated television diagnosis against a political rival should be grounds for a thorough rebuke and a permanent suspension.

[Ed. note: John Fetterman underwent heart surgery to treat the atrial fibrillation that caused his stroke.]
