I mean the party has really already left him. No sane person who calls themselves a member of the Democratic party would consider him viable.
It doesn't have to become anti-Israel, just anti-genocide. Would that be a deal-breaker for him? (I wouldn't nind seeing him replaced anyway.)
He's been tarnishing the Democrat brand since he arrived.
This MAGA hack needs to be kicked out yesterday and let him caucus with the lunatic right which he loves so much.
The sooner he fucks off the better.
Bye.
Dude already left. Fuck off and die already.
Who cares what this assbag will do. We know he had a incident (a stroke) where he finally realized he was gonna die one day. Most of us become more human when we face a possibility of death. He had one and became less human.
He left awhile ago
Please let the door injure him on his way out.
Aight bet
Being pro-Israeli is the one common element that can finally bring the dems and repubs together again. /s
Sounds like a win/win to me.
Crimes against humanity have roots deep in the American culture. If support for genocide stops, then that's it. I'll leave.
No one gives a fuck you Walmart looking motherfucker
Hey! My people are Wal-mart people! (But a slightly better class than those other Wal-mart people though. Ugh.). /s
Fucking piece of shit. Just leave anyway. Literally ZERO Democrats will give a shit about John Fetterman.
The funny thing is the Democratic party is incredibly Pro-Israel
Yeah, they suck too
Fetterman can suck an exhaust pipe though if he wants to make the world a better place
Man. Brain damage did a number of him. Gabby Gifford was shot in the head and didn't turn conservative
Because he was already a shitbags before his stroke. The stroke just made it harder for him to hide his power level.
Fetterman was just a rich kid who's daddy's money has backed his entire career. His dad is the owner and CEO of an insurance company and is a long time big Republican donor. Fettermans entire career has been faking blue collar credentials while being an asshole contrarian.
When he was mayor he raised prices for locals by turning his town into a vacation town for his rich friends. He also held a random black jogger at gun point because he suspected him of doing a crime. His constituents and coworkers hated him.
As Lt governor he barely showed up to work and missed one third of the mandatory state Senate sessions he was supposed to oversee. The guy has always been a lazy asshole, the stroke just made it come to the surface.
I've seen comments from people in his constituency that said the stroke didnt change shit, that he's always been a piece of shit, even before he was in public office.

YOU CAN'T FIRE ME, I QUIT.
Fuuuuuuuck you, dude
He lies and says he’s another Dem
Don’t vote for Fetterman
He simps for MAGA, he schemes with Reps
Don’t vote for Fetterman
Don’t vote for Fetterman
Don’t vote for Fetterman
I mean you basically left the left the moment you had a stroke.
He was never with the left. He succeeded where Platner failed: using the desperation for left wing politics to advance right wing causes
He only ever appeared left because he hired a bunch of young people to run his campaign.
As soon as he was elected he stopped appearing to be progressive because he either fired his election staff or they quit when they realized who he really was.
Before he was a senator he was a mayor of a small town in the middle of PA and held a black man at gunpoint because the man was going for a run in the town he was mayor of.
He's always been a piece of shit.
No need to rewrite history to fit the current narrative: as mayor, he was rather left leaning, even though he used questionable tactics. The problem is when you go to Washington, a lot more money is involved. He's just easy to corrupt.
Jesus dude, you didn't need to sweeten the deal, I was already for it!
Don't wait. Leave now you stroked out bitch.
The chances of Dems adopting such a stance are approximately 0. All Fetterman is doing here is proudly proclaiming who he works for.
It’s a shame PA doesn’t allow recall elections for elected officials, and I sincerely hope Pennsylvanians tell Fett to fuck off to Tel Aviv in the ‘28 election.

Yuuuup. I think it's well past time to let Temu Uncle Fester go.
"Man who is leaving the party anyway tries to get extra concessions on his way out." FTFY
Bye bitch
this is why there needs to be a recall mechanism for congress and senators. Dude ran as a Democrat and is now saying "haha, Ima go be a republican now" and all the people who voted for him can do nothing for 6 fucking years.

Bye 👋 He's essentially a Republican anyhow.
Where's the catch? I see no downsides
Fucking dishonorable Klingon from the jump; can’t believe no one else noticed.
So he will sell out his own countrymen for loyalty another country? What happened to when you could be hanged for being a traitor?
