“You can’t” work “with Crazy,” John Fetterman wrote. “You have to call him what it is. There is less and less mitigation without spine.”
It was mid-2016, and Fetterman, then ran in the democratic primary headquarters in Pennsylvania, responded to politics member About how Democrats can work with Donald Trump.
Fetterman, early advocate Offers Bernie Sanders for the presidency, received a reputation tested progressive in the mold with grinders. Similar position for the Democratic Socialist Socialist Vermont Senator: The Fetterman campaign trace often spoke about the inequality and legalization of marijuana. He supported Universal Health Care – Lakmus Test for Progressives.
In those days, as Fetterman attracted an increasing number of fans among the left wing of the Democratic Party, he was also a fierce trump card of critics.
“Also, @realdonaldtrump saw his shadow – 4 more years of fascism,” Fetterman wrote In early February 2017, along with GIF from the film Groundhog Day.
Things are different now.
2025. Fetterman, who lost his Senate offer for 2016. year, but was elected 2022. years, the fierce critic of the exact type of politician who was alone a few years ago. He condemned Democrats calling Trump’s “fascist”, claiming that the brand is a party grown toxic. His support of universal health gave up a long time ago.
And, despite his belief that he cannot work with crazy, Fetterman showed that the Democrat who is the most good to cooperate with Trump, claiming his colleagues should stop “Freaking” over the president. It’s a pretty dramatic turn for a man whose campaign Once sold T-shirts With the slogan “Trump is Jagoff”.
At the beginning of January, he became the first Senate of Democract who visited Trump since the election, after the praise of the then president as a “unique political talent” in the interview With ABC News.
“I am a senator for all Pennsylvanians – not only Democrats in Pennsylvania”, Fetterman told The Trump meeting, in the Florid Health Club in which Trump lived for four years.
“I was clear that no one was my vortex. I will meet and talk to anyone if it help me to help me deliver Pennsylvania and nation.”
After the meeting, he seemed to be defended Some Trump border policies, and especially avoided criticism criticizing Trump’s decision to elude 1,600 people convicted in relation to rebellion in 6. January, including some convicted attack for the police officer attack. Was the last Democrat who applied to resolution condemning pardon At the end of January.
There are also other signs of heat according to a trump that almost never can be seen from the selected Democrats. Fetterman joined Trump’s truth in the Social Network in December, one of the first to the party who did this, and immediately used it for Joe’s call to excuse Trump from 34 federal crimes regarding Pornstar regarding Pornstar.
“The housings of Trump and Biden hunter were bullshit, and the pardons are appropriate,” Fetterman wrote. “Weapons of Justice for Blato, Partizan Profit reduces collective faith in our institutions and sows further division.”
His weapons of judicials do not seem to be not really reflected with the voice – the only democratic “to” confirm “Pam Bondi, Trump’s choice for the law firm. In one of her first days in Bondi business sent an evil email For the employees of the Ministry of Justice, which are stated that everyone who “refuses to improve the arguments of the good faith” susceptible to discipline and potentially termination “, while the results of the prosecutors who worked in the riot cases were achieved.
Fetterman was a lonely democratic voice, or one of very few, in favor of another amortic cabinet, and in some cases, voices contrary to his last statements.
“Nixon was founded by the EPA. Trump wanted to melt him,” he wrote Fetterman in Tweet in 2017. years. He managed to cross that belief when Supported Lee Zeldin In order to be an administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, apparently overlooking the Trump Plans for the EPA hose. Days after Zeldin took over the office of about 1,000 staff members. allegedly demo.
Other Trumps are also supported. Was among the seven democrats that voted to confirm Kristi Noema be the Secretary of Homeland Security, and one of two who supported Eric Turner Being a secretary of housing and urban development.
More worrying for some is the way that seems that Fetterman seems willing to indulge in Trump’s plan for now to take on Gaza. Trump said that now “owned” Gaza Strip under the plan proposed 4. February, and said Palestinians moved to neighboring countries.

It was a plan that was shocked by many in both sides, with team Kaine, Virginia Democrat, Calling suggestions “Deranged” and “nuts”, and even long-standing trump card Sycophant Lindsey Graham describing him as “very problematic”. Fetterman, whose constant support for Israel is among the things that they put it on the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, was among several votes that are not indignant.
“It is a provocative part of the conversation, but it is part of the conversation and there,” Fetterman told the Jewish insiderAdding to “fully support” American forces arranged under the Trump scheme.
His actions did not pass unnoticed in his home. Last week, the Trump protest in Pittsburgh puffled the loud critique of Fetterman, with the results of the people singing “Fetterman! Fetterman! Do your job!” Public source reported.
It was recently 2022. years, in 2022. received some of its progressive credentials. In his senate, he received his early grinder support and accused his opponent, because the Conor Manchin – the center of Joe – The Joe Manchin – an independent senator Rodilo tried to bring legislation.
Ironically, after two years in the Senate, that is now the charge be tied on fetterman in some neighborhoods, as rumor And social media comments suggested that it can also be transferred to an independent senator or even change entertainment. Fetterman does not appreciate the kind of conversation.
“It’s an amateur shit clock,” he said semaphor In January. “If they think,” Oh, it’s going to be like Manchina or Sinem, “It’s just not true, and that won’t happen.”
For now, the Democrats will have to take Fetterman because it comes: progressive is not converted non-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at-at- at-at-at-achher to work with Trump than anyone else in his party, and which seemingly now he believes in is It is possible to work with crazy.
