I wish there was a way to get them out of office. Too bad the US system doesn’t have a vote of no confidence.
I guess the only way is to sue him for misrepresentation since he changed parties after being voted by the Democrats.
John Fetty Wap Man is a Republican.
I'm seeing fifty complete cunts.
Literally the opposite of what he was elected to do. Such a shame. He’s a piece of shit, and I hope the worst for him.
Brain damage made him go from sorta quietly right leaning Democrat to a full-blown Republicrat.
At least we know definitively that brain damage is what makes people support conservative views.
The war powers resolution failed 49 to 50 as the Pennsylvanian was the only Democrat to vote with Republicans who control the Senate. Three Republicans — U.S. Sens. Rand Paul, of Kentucky; Susan Collins, of Maine; and Lisa Murkowski, of Alaska — voted with Democrats.
Saying that Fetterman's vote was deciding is silly, when it was a 49 to 50 vote - every vote was deciding.
And the Republican dissenter votes are purely performative. They pull this shit all the time, with the same persons. Who would never vote against their party, if the vote could truly fail. Especially Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski do this all the time. Hence the people here blaming the Democrats for being captured are sheep being tricked by the Republican performance.
Trump and Epstein raped those kids
Yep, it's all in the TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES (TM)
Can we start calling him Fecalman? Cause he's like a walking piece of shit yeah?
Fetidman works too
...do you think he's been caught up in the pedo-asset honeypot?..
Nah I think this is just him doin it for love of shame
Piece of absolute shit.
My conspiracy theory is he is paid to be the sacrificial lamb, if it weren't him it would be someone else. I am more angry at Schumer and then the rest of the Democrats for letting Schumer lead.
Yeah this is a well known tactic in the US government. Backdoor dealings outline how to make a split vote and pick a fall guy to protect the party's image.
I.e. the Democrats failing to stop Trump's war in Iran a few weeks ago where some random nobody was the fall guy that time. It looks like Democrats tried but failed and they can blame it on some inconsequential Rando who isn't up for reelection
The military industrial complex owns everything. The machine exists for their benefit.
So if he had another stroke, would he go further right-wing, or would it reverse the process?
More brain damage would take him further right because right wing views are caused by damaged brains... He'd become full maga....
Dunno, better overthrow the whole rotten system that enables him. Just to be sure 🤷🏻
Hoping for locked in syndrome, until whoever still gives a shit about him gets sick of wiping his ass for him and pulls the plug.
Yet another unfortunate Fetterman L
There needs to be recalls on elected officials who drastically change their views like this fuckup.
He basically turned into a Con and still got to remain in his position!
"Rotating villain strategy" would like a word with you
It's what happens when neither the press nor the party actually vet candidates. Instead they ignore any compromising history and then collaborate with them to sell the public a new image.
He has always been a lazy contrarian. His dad basically paid for his first public office as mayor where he did nothing for the town but raise cost of living by marketing the town as a vacation spot for tourist. During this tenure he also held one of his constituents at going point for the crime of being a poc and jogging near his home.
As Lt governor he was out of office 115 days out of the year and only had 4-5 hour days the time he chose to show up. He was also largely absent from presiding over the state Senate....which he was legally required to do.
Anyone who's ever worked with him has gone on the record about how he doesn't want to do anything unless he gets to do it his way, even if his way is the worst way possible. He's just a spoiled nepo baby pretending to be blue collar. His dad is literally a CEO and owner of a huge insurance company, is a large conservative donor, and bankrolled his sons life well into his 40s.
Its just too fishy that there is always, conveniently, a singlr dem vote in the senate to support right wing bullshit.
That's called rotating villain strategy.
Republican Senator John Fetterman
What a fucking piece of shit.
He’s GOP. Let’s drop the DINO nonsense. Refer to him as a Republican.
There are no Republicans anymore, that was just their larval stage before they morphed into their final form - MAGA. Republicans should only be referred to in an historical or scholarly context.
The Republican party is as dead as the Whigs. They're all MAGA now.
The old Republican party died a long time ago - with Nixon's Southern Strategy.
This post argued that there are some electorate who will reason on most issues, but who won't reason, at all, on Netanyahu's "Israel" ( my falsifying-quotes, & now I know that there are Jews who call Netanyahu "Amalek", the anti-Jew, so I'm not the only one deeming Jew to be LivingSpirit-loyal, which Netanyahu is the opposite of )..
"kompromat", aka the Soviet term for controlling-blackmail, or something like that..

See the argument, see the players, see the evidence..

Let me guess....he voted not to limit his war powers?
correct
cast the deciding vote against the latest effort to limit President Donald Trump’s ability to attack Iran
Parties (and/or the people) really need a way to recall member that runs on bad faith and switches after elections. From Sinema to Fetterman, there's always at least one fraud in the DNC.
Bet he fucked kids
The Carhartt Kidd strikes again 💩💩💩👎
