He's leaving because he has no chance of ever running as a democrat again and winning a primary, so he is trying to make a show of it. He decided to leave a long time ago, this is his attempt at stagecraft.
Can somebody kill this guy already?
Get the fuck out, Fetterman. Nobody wants you.
This system is a pile of shit.
If you get into office and change your tune to the opposite of what you ran on, we have to primary you? Shouldn’t that be cause for removal in its own? You work for me, idrgaf what your opinions are.
John Fetterman is also a piece of shit.
Edit: you said pile while I only mentioned piece. He certainly is multiple pieces so apologies for not piling on.
“(…) the Senate ruled in 1798 that senators could not be impeached, but only expelled (…)
In other words: they are generally more immune than the president.
What a fun flavor of democracy the US has.
Something something constitutional republic
The U.S. really need a party whipping system closer to that of the UK; the current system lets candidates drastically switch platforms after being elected without any short-term consequences.
Eh, the issue is in my opinion that one side harshly whips their side into holding rank until recently, and the other does nothing.
Funny how we champion “Democracy” when our system never really was one.
If you get into office and change your tune to the opposite of what you ran on, we have to primary you?
You have to wait six years, and then you get to primary.
This is because the Founding Fathers, in all their wisdom, determined that loud patriotic farting noises
@stermy4u He and the rest of them should be removed. But since rich criminals are killing this country, it won't happen for generations.
GOOD.
You can't warn people about something that doesn't concern them.
He hasn't been a Democrat since he got the brain damage. No tears will be shed if you go bye bye
We need the headcount...but beyond that he's as useless as it's on a boar..
Does anyone have the source video for this gif? I seem to recall he's a stand up comedian but I don't know his name or the context, and I wonder about it every time I see it.
If I’m not mistaken it comes from his comedy special : Weirdo
Thank you!
That's Donald Glover, aka Childish Gambino. Good luck!
Thank you!
Gtfo already! No one likes you, except the republicunts. You are a traitor.
How does one stumble across townflex? A 'global news, breaking news, entertainment news, financial insights, music review, and lyrics breakdown' company based out of Ghana with a single employee.
This "reporter" has no existence that I can find outside of this website. No photo, but she does have a green checkmark beside her name on her reporter profile page though. Townflex verified, I guess.
There's very little chance that this site isn't AI regurgitation of real reporting.
Edit: answered my own question. This user is from this website and seems to be here exclusively to promote it.
Yup, I smell a shill.
Do it, raise the average IQ of Democrats and Republicans.
Bye Felicia.
Why would this be a threat? He already votes Republican on things that matter.
Him swapping his "D" for an "R" is no material difference unless there's something I'm unaware of.
If the midterm results are a 51-49 Democratic majority in the Senate, Fetterman switching parties would keep Republicans in charge.
Fetterman has a, literal, Israeli handler with him all the time.
Heard about this guy on Chapo.
American politics is wild
Kick his ass out and off the ballot. Maybe he can f up the Republican primary.
Fetterman currently polls at around 17% approval with democrats, but around 80% with republicans. And Pennsylvania went red in the last election. If he sticks with the democrat party, he has basically zero chance of getting elected.
All of this is to say… He’s going to change parties regardless of what the party stance is. And good riddance. Dude is a DINO
Good riddance.
Go ahead Mr. Fetterman: improve the Democratic party.
Has he ever been?
Don't threaten me with a good time, Mr. Jon Brain Damage.
Don't let the door hit you etc. etc.
So, nothing is going to change? Because he already isn't one in any way but a label he decided he had.
He exited a long time ago…
Apparently he's always been an ass and he was only just better than Oz. So much for blue no matter who.
Goodbyeeeeeeee!
I'd rather he just exit this plane of existence...
No. Stop. Don't.
