I will say that unlike whatever that guy said, I just care about him not being a piece of crap or not. And he’s a piece of crap, so it’s time to boogie.

He'd switch parties. His seat could determine which party controls the senate after the upcoming elections.

It doesn't matter if he says he's a dem but votes MAGA all the time

u/Working-Ad694 13h ago
saw somewhere that his record is like 1/3 repub and 2/3 dem, in that ballpark
not full repub but sure as hell an unreliable dem

If he votes MAGA all the time and gives Democrats control of the Senate, then all the committees will have Democrats running them, which matters.
The committee chairs decide things like what to hold hearings on. I'm not a fan of Fetterman, but his threat to switch parties is going to have the party leadership on edge because their personal power goes way up if their party controls the Senate.

He’s already effectively turned his back on the people who voted for him. A pure sell out almost from day one

Fetterman, you're a loser. You're not a Democrat anymore in practice so go join the Republicans and see if your new boss will let you into his club with your goofy basketball shorts and hoodies.

Why do I care what he does unless it results in him leaving office? When has he ever listened to a constituent?

u/AverageAggravating13 14h ago edited 14h ago
He hasn’t been part of the democratic party unofficially since his stroke anyways.
He’s not being re-elected regardless.
These politicians need to stop focusing on Israel so much, and focus on America. Like, you know, a US representative or senator SHOULD be doing…

u/Consistent_Sector_19 14h ago
He’s not being re-elected regardless.
His term runs until Jan 2029 and control of that seat could determine which party controls the senate for two years after the upcoming elections. I'd suspected he would switch parties if progressive looked like they were going to get anything on their wish list, so for me this is just confirmation, but word needs to get out to more people.

Good riddance. He's been a reactionary since his stroke anyway. Dems are conservative, but this guy went full right wing nut job; or at least he's now showing it.

Here's your hat what's your hurry and don't let the door hit you on the way out. He has been voting as a trumpy Republican since the stroke. Good riddance to bad rubbish (to round out the cliches).

Oh no! Who would have thought that this remarkable person is not who he pretended to be.
Fetterman a mayor of a was the mayor of PA town and he thought he heard gunshots. He sees a black jogging so he chases the man down with his truck and holds a gun to his chest until police arrive. Fetterman never apologized and the victim did not press charges.
This was in 2013 and yet he was elected with the excuses granted only to a mediocre white man that 'he did that thing but I can overlook it because he's sorry and we all make mistakes and he is going to take care if us because he's a real man'.
Who does that remind me of?

He’s going to lose his next primary by a wide margin. He was always going to flip.

Glad my senator values his non voting non constituents more than those he actually represents.

u/FillMySoupDumpling 12h ago
Fetterman is a perfect example of why Party Doesn’t Matter - especially among Dems because you have conservatives like him in the same party with progressives.
