Pennsylvania’s lieutenant governor, John Fetterman, is a man of many qualities and has been turning heads since his election in 2018. Standing at an impressive 6’8” and sporting a lengthy beard, Fetterman is a hard man to miss and even harder to body double.
Fetterman’s physical stature is only the beginning of why he would be difficult to replicate. His public persona is another factor that would make body-doubling an incredibly difficult task. Fetterman is known for his frank and blunt attitude, and penchant for speaking his mind. His caustic remark in 2019 about President Donald Trump “who acted like a President, not a Twitter troll,” and other public statements put him in the headlines constantly. His distinct demeanor and wit make it hard to mimic inauthentically.
It’s also important to consider Fetterman’s political background. He’s an advocate for social justice and progressive causes such as legalizing marijuana, fighting for labor rights, and reducing gun violence. His track record of positive accomplishments and his propelling role in looking out for Pennsylvania’s working-class citizens further add to the difficulty of recreating Fetterman.
Fetterman has become a controversial, yet ever-popular figure for the residents of Pennsylvania. He’s widely known for his eccentric fashion sense, whether it’s rocking a suit vest and shorts, bright-colored oven mitts, or just a moderate blend of trends. Additionally, Fetterman’s rolling out of the wheel of fortune as an election promotional stunt seemed to be a success.
No matter the circumstances, it would be almost impossible to find an actor that could adequately embody the presence and aura of Lieutenant Governor Fetterman. From his physical stature and frank attitude, to his history of progressive causes and radical dressing, Fetterman is a man that is hard to replicate and unique in his own right.
