Democratic Sen. John Fetterman to meet with Trump at Mar-a-Lago
Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman will become the chamber's first Democrat to meet with President-elect Donald Trump since the election, and plans to travel to Trump’s private resort in Florida.
Summary
Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) will be the first Democrat to meet with Donald Trump post-election, traveling to Mar-a-Lago.
The meeting reflects Fetterman’s growing willingness to collaborate with Trump, whom he praised as a “singular political talent.”
While emphasizing his commitment to representing all Pennsylvanians, Fetterman has supported some Trump policies and nominees.
Once a progressive icon, Fetterman has shifted to a more bipartisan approach, drawing criticism from Democrats while rejecting divisive rhetoric, including Vice President Harris’s labeling of Trump as a “fascist.”
When we vote for progressives, they turn out to be stealth centrists.
Can we just kick this dumb arsehole out of the Democratic party already?
He's really pushing this "conservatism as brain damage" narrative pretty hard isn't he.
Not gonna lie, I do wonder if his amygdala got any more active after the stroke.
I mean I just read an article that said 200,000 US Americans got long covid per week in December.
When you realize how much brain damage COVID is causing worldwide, it makes sense why fascism is on the rise everywhere
It was on the rise around the first time donvict "won", too. Maybe covid brain is accelerating it...
Fascism is on the rise because Russian intelligence has been pushing it into the mainstream media of the West for decades since the fall of the USSR. As one of my professors who was ex-KGB put it in 1998 "lots of my former colleagues are still very angry that their society was just destroyed and want revenge onthose nations celebrating that fall".
The wealthy in the USA at least have never not had a fascination with fascism on some level so it was easy to push them towards accepting it.
Fascism kicked off in 1922, just 4 years after the 1918 Influenza pandemic...
You're giving people too much credit by assuming that the default state is anything other than stupidity. We are apes slinging shit at one another and we always have been.

Your summary forgets to point out that he had a stroke and then ceased being a progressive icon. It's important to note that conservativism is a brain disease and can be caused by a TBI
Fetterman was never a progressive icon. He ran against a mountain of shit and looked better by comparison. Because a heaping mound is less than a mountain.
Fetterman has always been an asshole and a bully. His stroke changed nothing. People just found his bullying of a grifter and bully acceptable and thought it was a one off. Not who he's always been.
Or brain worms.
Brain damage is brain damage whether it's caused by a stroke or a worm.
Soon, "Democratic" Sen. John Fetterman to donate $1M to Trump's inauguration fund
Anyone who buckles the knee for the Nazis should be treated as one
Fucking quisling
Am I gonna have to primary this asshole with no political experience and even less desire for the job?
Once a progressive icon,
Bullshit.
Connor Lamb called him progressive in attack ads during the primary, and because there was no progressive option, it got Fetterman to the general.
Then he was against Dr Oz, so he got a shit ton of money and everyone voted against Oz.
The media ran with him being a progressive when he never was, and they ran with the narrative that he was nationally popular when it was just the Republican was nationally an asshole.
The fact that he was called a progressive and won doesn’t seem to register with the PA Democratic Party.
Democrats know that progressives win elections. That bit of knowledge being lacking is not the issue. The problem is that they are not a progressive party. They would rather do everything in their power to kneecap progressive candidates than allow them to have influence in the party.
I heard he packed his new knee pads
I hope this guy has another stroke. It would be the best game of golf I imagine.
"Democratic"
Yes, Democratic. Pretending to be a progressive and then kissing Republican ass is the ONLY thing the Democratic Party is about.
the word means next to nothing anymore.
Wouldn't you feel nauseous and ashamed of yourself in his place? Of course you would. Decent human beings don't become politicians or billionnaire CEO and you're not one of them.
Hey John! Don't forget to wipe the brown stain off your mouth on your way out of Mar-a-Lago...
You can't get that stain out. Worse on him even for the betrayal. Dude is now a fucking Nazi. Forever. He's already a skinhead.
Primary
Defection incoming?
Slurp the durp
What’s his voting record? That’s what counts.
COOL
