Sen. John Fetterman doubled down in his support of President Biden after his ABC interview Friday, condemning efforts by his fellow Democrats to shove the octogenarian commander-in-chief out of the race.
“Democrats need to get a spine or grow a set — one or the other. Joe Biden is our guy,” Fetterman said in a terse posting on X.
The terse comment reiterated the Pennsylvania ragamuffin as a ride-or-die for Biden, even as a growing number of elected Democrats moved to abandon him after his disastrous debate against Donald Trump last week.
“I’m unwilling to discard a great president, a decent man and a loving father after 50 years in public service, over a 90 minute debate,” Fetterman added before Biden’s do-or-die with anchor George Stephanopoulos. “Responding with disorder, panic and disloyalty is not meeting this moment.”
When the New York Times called on Biden to drop out of the race, Fetterman responded by posting “f–k that,” to his nearly 1 million followers.

Sometime for them to consider.
Respect only because he breaks with the party line and goes unscripted once in a blue moon . . . quite a contrast with the robotic senior senator from the Commonwealth and damn near all other Democrats.
“Sometime for them to consider.”
I admire his loyalty, despite him being wrong on so many issues.

I’m so glad Fetterman returned to normal.
For a moment there I thought I was in The Twilight Zone.
I knew Fetterman would return to being a Democrat.
After all, Joe made a personal appearance with him.
One can respect a worthy opponent. Fetterman has shown flashes of independence from the leftist mob, but then (as here) he reverts to form.
You tell them John! Stick with the old, demented, crooked pervert!
I like this! IMO the longer this battle goes on the better it is for DJT.
I simply can’t understand why The Big Guy refuses to release the audio of that interview with the “Special” Prosecutor.
This is good, though. Dissension and disagreement among Dems over whether to dump Biden is a good thing. The last thing we want to see is unanimity on their side. Usually, it’s Republicans who are divided and at each others’ throats. When Biden is ultimately ditched (and i’m 100% sure he will be), it’ll be a positive thing for Trump if some of Biden’s voters are dispirited and demoralized enough to not bother voting for Kamala or whatever other Dem comes off the bench.
Fetterman’s support for Israel is strong. He despises Hamas. He also continually mocks corrupt Democrat Senator Menendez. And Fetterman has warned against open borders.
At best, he’s a classical liberal. You take what you can get.
Once a democrat, always a democrat. In a way I partially agree with him though: the dems played this card. Now they ought to be forced to play the whole hand with it.
Fetterman and Biden both show that mental impairment is no reason why you can’t be elected to public office
Biden staying in the race is the best thing that could happen. Me thinks Fetterman is still coming over to the right side lol. Maybe Team Trump has signed him up.
I have been telling everyone from the beginning the right wing media has lied to them from the start about Fetterman.
He is a Democrat but he’s not the full on whackadoo that the moronic talking heard and mouthpieces of the RNC have told you he is.
I have watched this man in action and his career for decades now. Even met him a few times. Don’t agree with his politics but have more respect for him than I do any of the lying sacks of crap who tried to sell OZ as a “great” candidate.
This comment doesn’t change my opinion of Fetterman at all. Is Biden incompetent? Yes does he have dementia? Yes, but he’s had it for nearly a decade and been incompetent his entire life. They have lied and covered up his dementia since the start, they all knew it, and they all signed up for it, now that it’s out there they want to pretend they didn’t know and bail…. Got no problem with Fetterman calling them out for being the wussies they are, because he’s not wrong.
Democrats, the establishment political class and media signed up to cover up and protect the walking potato from the start…. Now that they been exposed most of them are showing what cowardly little pathetic worms they are… got zero problem with Fetterman (or anyone else for that matter) calling them out for being cowards and wusses. Honestly this is the type of response I would have expected from Fetterman.
“You knew what you signed up for, own it and stop being little bitches now that the goings tough.”
No doesn’t change the fact Biden’s an incompetent tapioca brain, but he always was.
fetterman can afford to be loyal: he’s not up for re-election for another 4 and half years ...
