Fetterman is nothing if not amusing.

    I wish we had more of him. The OG can stay in PA and make a clone to be senator for every other state. I know I’d vote for him.

    Why the fuck can’t we get more elected Democrats like him? He’s personable. He’s down to earth, and he’s willing to make fun of the right wing wackos instead of cowering in fear. A good 3/4 of all the other elected Dems are a bunch of pussies who have the wit of a goddamn potato.

      Because at the heart of it most of them are still spineless corporate shills. Fetterman, AOC, Russ Feingold etc are outliers who snuck past the checks

      Because the whole damn system is designed to weed out anyone like that before they can even sniff at a senate seat.

      Because Democratic primary voters are gigantic cowards who think swing voters are only won over by inoffensive white corporate suits.
