John Fetterman is no longer a progressive

[Anonymous]

Good to have someone speaking their mind rather than bow to woke orthodoxy.

Once that corruption cash starts flowing into their bank account, it’s amazing how quickly and how transparently these supposedly principled people start doing the bidding of their true masters.

Fetterman is a clown.

First of all, what a horrible thing to say. I'm genuinely shocked you would say that.

Second of all - he's not a conservative. He's a Democrat.

And plenty of us support his positions.

Totally not shocked that this poster posted this type of comment. Par for the course.

As someone who wanted normie Democrat Conor Lamb in the primary, this amuses me.

WOW. This is something. I think I’ve been in same personal IRL groups with you. I’ve always given you the benefit of the doubt but this is low. I’m very liberal, maybe progressive, and I like Letterman’s authenticity. I do time his stance on Israel but I also don’t like anti Zionism and antisemitism of the protesters.

Absolutely floored by your words, your cruelty and hatred of those who you don’t think are progressive enough. I’m sure you won’t even post this.

He's a common sense democrat. We need more of them.

It is really just such a vile comment on at least two different levels. More than two if you think about it even for a moment. But two glaring levels.

Good for him. Progressives have gone off the rails.

Fetterman's quotes are painfully normal. No issues with the quotes in that article - he takes umbrage that Rep. Jayypal compared Biden to Trump w/r/t the asylum decree.

Look, tons of people crossing the border are abusing the current asylum law. They learn on TikTok how to say all the right things to get a pending backlogged asylum. Even if they only stay for three years and get booted, they got to make good money in the U.S. The reality is that most of them are economic migrants, not asylum seekers.

NP. Wow, Jeff. You think this is okay? Really?

Actually, I look at it quite differently.

The dude gets medical treatment, recovers, and realizes that progressivism is the road to destruction.
I guess you can say he has "seen the light."
