John Fetterman, as someone put it, is doing a Bulworth in reverse.
Bulworth was a fictional California senator in the 1990s movie of the same name who suddenly abandoned his establishment politics for an outspoken leftism, and all ended happily ever after.
Fetterman is the real Pennsylvania senator who has suddenly modulated his leftist politics, outraging his former supporters and pleasing his former critics.
The senator is demonstrating how — through theatrical dissent from a few fashionable left-wing causes and strategic rebranding — it’s possible to create a Democratic politics shorn of some of its dumbest, most unnecessary cultural vulnerabilities.
Fetterman has distanced himself from the excesses of the left on a couple of key things and done it with a devil-may-care verve that has drawn added attention and underlined his independence.

Did the evil being lodged in his neck die or at least shrink in size and influence?
Mentally impaired stroke victim fights back more effectively against the
Left than National Review and its cuckservative editor.
Just another Joe Manchin. Nice talk, but it’s the votes that count.
I bet he still voting 100% party line. (Or only deviating when they don’t need his vote).
Well, voting records are easily researched before guessing here.
But it is FR tradition to 1) not read articles, and 2)take a SWAG.
Will the real John Fetterman please stand up...
Would be funny if the stand-in was secretly a conservative
It’s the OP’s responsibility to give context and provide a reasonable excerpt.

Came here to say this. ^
To anyone that has any idea of supporting Fetterman in any capacity, I remind you of Rosanne Barr.
Fetterman, much like Barr, is mentally unstable. Supporting anything that he says will backfire and make his conservative supporters look incredibly stupid, just as his liberal supporters have appeared in the past.
It’s best to give him a wide berth…
Guessing is even easier.
doing a better job than the feckless GOP?
He’s pivoting in an election year to help Joe in Pennsylvania.
Yep, or any male Republican in Congress. Have you noticed lately the only Republicans who seem to have any gumption are the women? Marjorie Taylor Greene, Elise Stefanik, Anna Paulina Luna?
Pretty sure he had that lump removed when he was hospitalized for DEPRESSION!
I wonder if Fetterman’s illegal alien wife is Jewish? She does have that Morticia look about her.
It would explain everything. I doubt Senator Frankenstein loves Israel because of its holy land roots or because its home to the children of Abraham.
Worst case is if he supports the Golden Calf American JINO’s who hate Israel more than the Muslims.
But as long as he is poking a finger in the rabid democrat base eye, that is a good thing.
