In reply to the discussion: Fetterman has lost what's left of his Mind [View all]crimycarny
(2,016 posts)66. Fetterman is right
Fetterman should have kept his mouth shut and complained in private, but he's not wrong. The vast majority of the Democrats are coming off as the metaphoric car alarm that everyone ignores.
Dems need to follow Jasmine Crockett's lead. I wrote this in a comment further down, but Jasmine Crockett is able to come from a position of power. She comes off as the parent telling a child throwing a temper tantrum (Trump) to "go to your room". Whereas the majority of Dems come off as the child being told to "go to your room" by Trump and they respond "You're being mean!" all while ceding power and walking towards their room.
All of that being said, I agree with everyone that Fetterman needs to be primaried.

Wouldn't Connor Lamb be the obvious choice? Believe me, I understand you frustration, most of us here feel the same way

He voted for all of trump's disgusting clown car cabinet picks. That's enough for me.

What's correct then? There was a recent post noting that he voted for most of them, in not all.

I stand corrected then. But 50% of those disastrous picks IMO still calls for primarying him.

Anyone who thinks that Trump is "presidential" can't be trusted to show good judgement

The worshipping of Dear Leader is nauseating. Next thing you know he'll wear a suit for him.

🎱 says Fetty in a suit with Dump would be further proof that he is now on the MAGA leash.
