So Fetterman went on FAUX again, this time to warn Dems to be respectful to trump

during the State of the Union. Unbelievable. He keeps going on FAUX to undermine Dems. This is not the first time by a long shot, but lecturing Dems about how they treat trump is beyond the pale.

So let me get this straight. When he lies about the Dems and insults them, they are supposed to sit there respectfully? This BS is why they shouldn't even attend.

The "little auction sign" idea last year is exactly what Trump would have scripted for us to do if he were writing our script.

Slotkin, however, did a great response for us last year. Can we please put her in charge of decorum? Grown-ups, please! We have an election to win, and it is far from in the bag.

Start vetting dem candidates. They keep running under our banner, using our money and switching or stay in the party to sabotage and undermine what we stand for. Send his ass back to the Rock he crawled from. And jump on that Rock.
No more of him, Sinema, Tulsi and the West Virginia yacht dwelling prick. Charlotte ran a female that switched the day after winning as a Dem and gave NC a super majority of assholes.
We got to do better.
My Gods what an ass Fetterman is.
Maybe we should play their game. Run as a Jesus freak child rape supporter, lying ass boil with Jesus bling and MAGA hat, on their dime, of which is endless dimes, and switch parties after the fools elect us.

Fetterman chased an unarmed black guy jogging in his neighborhood and held him at gun point because he thought he heard gunshots (they were fireworks).

I was living in PA during the election and not only voted for Fetterman but was excited to do so. I thought he was the perfect candidate to reach out to working class voters. He looked and sounded like my Delco neighbors and certainly talked the talk.

Now? Not so much. Nearly every article on Big John gets a from me.

Treating Donald Trump with respect? Sure, in the same way he's treated the Office of the Presidency.

With utter contempt!

46. He is not the same man
Sat Feb 21, 2026, 07:07 PM
Feb 21

I am from W. PA. I heard him speak in person four times-- three before and once after his stroke.

The three talks before his stroke were amazing. So inspiring. He was a man for the least of us. Very emotional.

The talk after the stroke was okay. He struggled, but still-- most of the good John was there.

Whatever it was that happened at Walter Reed when they treated him for depression-- was it that?

Whoever it is we see now is not the same person who inspired me. I truly thought I was supporting a man who could be President.

Anytime I heard Rag 'n' Bone Man sing the song "Giant" I thought of Fetterman.

It breaks my heart to see how much hate is being directed towards him, but of course, I understand. I just wish when he had to go in for treatment at Reed that he would've stepped down. But that's not going to happen.

Truly, he needs to resign. Gov. Shapiro could easily put Conor Lamb in.

And then we can very respectfully leave him there until the bailiffs from the International Criminal Court get here to take him into custody.

How tell the president to stop using the state of the union to call the other party “crazy”. Can you imagine Obama spending as much time as Trump did just to rip the GOP?
