    “A former campaign staffer said Professional Fascist Dick Sucker Sen. John Fetterman’s single-minded focus on sucking fascist dick came at the exclusion of the progressive positions he ran on in favor of sucking fascist dick.” FTFY

      I think a lot of his percieved political views during the campaign were mostly ascribed to him, and he never denied anything hoping that it’d win him the election.

      Well, turned out that he, like any other candidate, will say whatever needs to be said to win.

      But at least he’s not Dr Oz.

        Yeah, I think the warning signs were always there, especially the whole “threating a black guy with a fucking shotgun” incident, but people hated Oz (for obvious reasons) and were super excited for a down to earth, progressive, everyday person. He has said the stroke made him more conservative, but honestly he was always kinda a rascist asshole and just used the veneer of an everday working class Philadelphian for optics imo. Even so, he’s a massive disappointment and I really hope PA can primary him in 2026 2028 for an actual progressive.
