Democrat Senator John Fetterman: Donald Trump’s Appeal to Pennsylvanians Is ‘Astonishing’
Breitbart ^ | 10/26/2024 | Amy Furr

Posted on 10/26/2024 2:07:40 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) recently spoke about the support he is seeing for former President Donald Trump in his state.

During an interview with the New York Times, Fetterman was asked why he believes Trump appeals to the swing state’s residents.

“There’s a difference between not understanding, but also acknowledging that it exists. And anybody spends time driving around, and you can see the intensity. It’s astonishing,” he replied.

It’s not “astonishing”, it is perfectly normal given the situation in which we find ourselves. Wake up, Mr. Fetterman, reality is staring you in the face. Ignore it at your own risk.

Fetterman sure is a different kind of duck. He could have said that Trump appeals to PA racists, or something else just as inflammatory. Hillary would have said that. Obama too. But Fetterman didn’t.

Fetterman has appeared with Harris at rallies. And he publicly backs her. But I wonder if he just might vote MAGA in the voting booth.

(just kidding, maybe)

I was doing an event in Indiana County. Very, very red. And there was a superstore of Trump stuff, and it was a hundred feet long, and it was dozens of T-shirts and hats and bumper stickers and all kinds of, I mean, it’s like, Where does this all come from? It’s the kind of thing that has taken on its own life. And it’s like something very special exists there. And that doesn’t mean that I admire it. It’s just — it’s real. And now [Elon] Musk is joining him. I mean, to a lot of people, that’s Tony Stark. That’s the world’s richest guy. - - Democrat Senator John Fetterman

This will make it harder for democrats to cheat on the vote in PA and make the DOJ and 'intelligence' all the more committed to taking Trump out. Let's hope the DOJ and thugs weren't behind the assassination attempts.

He’s gonna end up endorsing Trump yet ;-)

I think Trump should invite him to a PA rally, talk about things they agree on like Israel.

> He’s gonna end up endorsing Trump yet ;-) <

As you noted, Fetterman and Trump agree on Israel. And they both sounded an alarm on the border crisis quite some time ago. Plus Fetterman was once mayor of a declining steel mill town. He’s got to be in favor of Trump’s plan to bring industry back to America.

Fetterman is a rare one in the Democrat party. I think he’s a classical liberal. He’ll never switch parties, but he just might quietly back Trump when it seems like the right thing to do.

My wife and I and our son and his wife visited Philadelphia last weekend. At the city center is the town hall and in the middle of the Town Hall is a green area where a woman and Friends were harvesting votes.
A black gentleman was walking by when the woman asked him to vote for Harris and he responded I’m voting for Trump and you should too.

Fetterman wants to be President and wants to run as a moderate.

But he’s as liberal as it comes and is married to an actual Marxist.

I think he can work with Trump once he’s in the White House, he’s probably much better to work with than McConnell.

Fetterman might endorse Trump. It would be helpful if the two of them could work together on something.

It wouldn't surprise me. He would be a secret Trump voter like many of us.

I've been pleasantly surprised at the man's public positions and utterances.
