The Dems want him gone anyway and will do their best to get rid of him since he doesn't fall in line.

He keeps saying some pretty based stuff.

I have been skeptical for years because we all figured it was an act to try to stay neutral to appease his constituents in PA, but if it's an act, he has kept it up for a few years now and keeps going more and more based with his takes. There are times he comes across way more based than many RINOs

Funny that a stroke fixed his brain.

Because they are told how to vote.

He is on the cusp and I think his district will also force the change as PA keeps drifting further Red

Dems have no principles, he’d vote the right way if he switched, it’s all about staying elected in a state that’s turning red

Yep. Between that and the Dems wanting him gone he might as well switch and get it over with.

Absolutely not. He’s still a leftist even if he’s not a retarded jackass. We have enough democrats hiding on the right

Stop with this Fetterman stuff. He's not conservative. He's just not a fricking dim stooge. If anything, he needs to keep his mouth shut because he's one of the few dims who doesn't make them seem like out of touch fools.

He votes with the Democrats 96% of the time.

We need a Republican Senator in PA.

Not happening. The guy is Dem through and through, and does whatever Schumer tells him to. He just has some political sense.

Yea I misspoke.

He is from Western PA which is turning more and more red than Eastern PA. He knows he needs to lean into the middle more to get reelected in 2028

Here is a county-level map of Pennsylvania’s 2022 U.S. Senate election (Fetterman vs. Oz), showing which counties went red (Republican) vs. blue (Democratic).

Fetterman is what a normal politician used to be. They voted with their party on most issues but crossed the aisle on those they disagreed with.
I'm okay with him.
These all-or-nothing politicians have ruined the country, and they don't care.

I kinda like him hanging the opportunity to go rogue over the Ds heads the same way Collins & Murk are foils to the GOP.

Yea I get that

I think he realizes he would have lost last time had Rs ran a better candidate then 2024 really showed him he needs to be more middle to survive but that's not good enough for the Dems and they want him gone. He's sort of in a no win situation trying to toe the line for his party and the red wave happening in PA.

He’s not a Republican and doesn’t vote with the GOP except on a handful of votes. Let the Dems take him, nominate a left wing loon and beat him.

Nope. Don't look at what is coming out of his mouth. Instead, look at his voting record.

The tiger rustling in the tall grass waiting in ambush, is happy to tell you that it's just a breeze.

Typical Democrat in a Purple State - All talk, no action. Every time the Democrats need Fetterman's vote, we will 100% absolutely give it to them.

Yeah- and his problem in 2028 is that he is going to have a difficult, if not impossible, time winning either party's primary.
He maybe realizing that and just increasingly going with his gut or something.
