You're not serious. The time for that to have happened would have been when he was in the hospital recovering from the stroke. Fetterman will change party affiliation or run as an Independent in 2029. He is only 56-yoa, but I really thought he was in his mid to late 60's until I Googled him. Yikes.

In case you missed it, he suffered another serious medical event this week.

If you’re unhappy with the way, Democrats in Senate are behaving, we need to elect new fresh blood doesn’t have Schumer stink on them.

Forget about primaries in 2028 (when Chuck is up for reelection and will probably retire anyway)

Here are outstanding candidates we should get behind NOW:

James Tallarico in Texas
Zach Wahls in Iowa. Both are battle tested state legislatures.
Sherrod Brown in Ohio ONLY if he announces he won’t support Schumer
Sharice Davis in Kansas if she jumps in race and IF she announces she won’t support Schumer.
Demand Ossoff rebukes Schumer

Dan Osborn in Nebraska running as Independent

Primary in safe blue states:
Chris Coons - Delaware
Cory “performative” Booker - NJ
Mark Warner - Virginia
They all sit in the pro-Schumer wing and only voted no because other colleagues covered for them.

I’m agnostic on oyster man in Maine. We don’t need another Fetterman.

Sounds bad! Sure don’t want the federal government buying large stakes or taking golden shares in major US companies!

You mean like Intel?

DP. Not just Intel, but include MP Materials, Palantier, US Steel, Lithium America, and Trilogy Metals.

Isn’t Maine including its cities/towns basically rural?

Southern coastal Maine, no. Up in the County, yes.

Not sure what that has to do with the comment, though.

Worth the watch. Susan Collins lies. Her aide stammers and talks about how concerned she is.
When’s the last time she actually helped someone who’s not a billionaire.

This is only going to make Mainers love him more. He says what’s on his mind. Like Trump.

— signed, a Mainer

he says that rural Whites are stupid, but from his photo he appears to be one - what am I missing?

A lot, apparently. Along with his past comments, he sports a Nazi tattoo. And he is not the working class guy he is being promoted as.

I had at least assumed that the Democrats "working class hero" with the inconvenient Nazi tattoo was in fact real working class-- but no, he's just another guy from a fancy background whose father was a prominent attorney and whose grandfather was a famous architect.

He briefly attended Hotchkiss, one of the fanciest New England prep schools.

The fact that the Dems and their media allies were pushing this guy as working class just illustrates how completely actual White working class men have abandoned the Democrats.

“The Dems” aren’t pushing this guy - it’s the Bernie people. Schumer has been pushing Maine’s governor to get in the race. This guy is another Fetterman.

People with $$$$$ are constantly veiling themselves as working or middle class. Doesn’t matter what their political bent.

I’d like candidates to define what they mean by middle class when they talk about the middle class. Without it, people making a minimum $300k a year with just $5 million net worth at 30 in the DMV can keep telling themselves they are only middle class. Why do candidates not define their terms? Because the so-called middle-class folks bankroll these politicians.

Has anyone heard Platner speak? He's good. He has a shot.

So democrats are going full communist?

If nothing is going to happen after Young Republicans are caught flying SWASTIKAS in their office, then spare me the pearl clutching over this crap.

Also, lol at thinking “communism” or “socialism” are scary words, as if we’re still living in the 1950s. Capitalism hasn’t exactly been working out well for the average person lately.

Are you talking about this incident?
The "GOP hill staffer" who is actually a Democratic activist? LOL.
And, go for the march toward communism. You think the Democrats are polling in the toilet now? It can get worse. And, it will.

Funny how he didn’t display swastikas until he started working for a GOP congressman.

Nazis sure do love MAGA. MAGA leaders in turn like to wink at Nazi beliefs and symbolism (but always in a way where they can quickly deny it). Young Republicans discussing gas chambers and making vile racist and anti-Semitic comments when they think no one’s looking. Stephen Miller borrowing heavily from Goebbels during his speech at Charlie Kirk’s funeral. The CPAC stage shaped like a Nazi rune. Elon’s salute. The TPUSA summit that attracted neo-Nazis. Trump’s “very fine people” on both sides.

As for “polls”, lol. Trump’s approval ratings are in the Marianas trench. Dems have been winning special elections. The mask is coming off and the American people are seeing MAGA for what they truly are.

I’m glad to see MAGA diminished but I don’t feel any better or safer with Dem wins.

Two things can be true at once.
