Fetterman Calls For Fellow Democrat Bob Menendez to be Expelled From the Senate: He’s Even More ‘Sinister’ Than Santos
Mediaite ^ | 12/2/2023 | Jamie Frevele

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) was the guest on Friday’s episode of ABC’s The View, which was live as the news broke that the House of Representatives voted to expel now-former Rep. George Santos (R-NY). It was predictable that the hosts would ask Fetterman about Santos, but he was more interested in seeing someone else expelled: fellow Senate Democrat Bob Menendez of New Jersey.

Fetterman sat for three segments on Friday’s show, and he discussed a variety of topics with the hosts, including his health improving since his near-fatal stroke and bout of depression — “Fox News is devastated to know that,” he quipped — as well as anti-Semitism and the Israel-Hamas War. But the news about Santos was hot off the presses, leading co-host Joy Behar to ask the senator what his reaction was.

Fetterman said he was “not surprised,” but had bigger concerns with his Senate colleague Menendez:

"I think the more important picture is, is that we have a colleague in the Senate that actually does much more sinister and serious kinds of things. Senator Menendez, he needs to go. And if you are going to expel Santos, how can you allow somebody like Menendez to remain in the Senate? And, you know, Santos is kind of, lies were almost, you know, funny. And like, you know, he, you know, landed on the moon and that kind of stuff. Whereas, you know, I think, you know, Menendez, I think is really a senator for Egypt. You know, not New Jersey. So I really think he needs to go."

Sen. Menendez was indicted on federal bribery charges and pleaded not guilty.

It’s like the part of his brain that’s supposed to substitute democrat bs for the truth is broken.

“Ive been liking him too. His appearance betrays the decent guy on the inside“

I wonder how many of his wealthy backers have BEGGED him to take their money and get five or six suits. Maybe he thinks he would look fat. A little tailoring by a good tailor can make anyone look good in a suit.

Had Fetterman lost his brain? First he supports Israel. Now he wants a Democrat expelled?

I’ll wager Schumer will have a little “talk” with Fetterman pretty soon now.
