And how some can't live with the facts that he ran as a Bernie progressive, but now is a Trump adjacent toady for Republicans.

I bet the voters would have a different message about that outcome.

Speaking of losing, it's interesting to see how quickly the "progressives" turn on each other. Look at Katie Porter in California -- scorned now over the new billionaire leader, Tom Steyer. There was a time when she was going to really show California all about your coalition, but California showed her the door instead.

My voting is with the majority of Democrats in every election, so my coalition is just fine, but thanks for your deep concern.

Can we officially put aside the BS that Platner is the next Fetterman now? SSJVegeta Jun 8 #10

I think the concern is more about his future policies, LisaL Jun 8 #13

That concern is also dead considering this feud is about his policies SSJVegeta Jun 8 #24

That's not really how proving things goes EdmondDantes_ Jun 8 #11

That was my take as well PatSeg Jun 8 #84

"Absurd and undignified"(TM) mr715 Jun 8 #153

someone told him about "you can't prove a negative" eShirl Jun 8 #12

Classic "when did you stop beating your wife?" tactic. Who is paying this guy? Scrivener7 Jun 8 #14

Fetterman is also bashing LisaL Jun 8 #15

No matter how you turn it over the view Emile Jun 8 #89

It doesn't work like that, and you know it. Money was sent to Fetterman's victory fund as it was to all the primary Nixie Jun 8 #91

Rewriting history is your strong suit. Emile Jun 8 #93

The facts of Fetterman's campaign are all over the internet, though. Here is he is running his "Bernie inspired" Nixie Jun 8 #96

AloeVera, you are so damn smart. mr715 Jun 8 #95

If you followed along, you wouldn't need to trouble yourself. "worthless centrist" is what my response was about. Nixie Jun 8 #135

No trouble at all. AloeVera Jun 8 #142

That's funny that you think you know what I saw 4 hours ago. I won't waste my time Nixie Jun 8 #143

Please do not tell me what I post about. AloeVera Jun 8 #148

Hilarious. You are intentionally jumbling what I wrote Nixie Jun 8 #149

Apparently all you post about is AIPAC!! Violet_Crumble Jun 9 #162

Thank you V_C! AloeVera Jun 9 #164

Lamb is a class act MustLoveBeagles Jun 8 #57

He very well may be, but he ran as a centrist Emile Jun 8 #59

Maybe they should have listened then Boo1 Jun 8 #134

Yes, and it's nice to see him still out there and AOC realizing she was wrong about him. Nixie Jun 8 #62

Centrist Fetterman involving himself by attacking a progressive candidate. Emile Jun 8 #22

Centrist? Boo1 Jun 8 #33

Senator Lamb lost because he was running Emile Jun 8 #36

It wasnt the stroke Boo1 Jun 8 #43

I am not convinced this is the results of a stroke either. LisaL Jun 8 #46

And held him at gunpoint. Boo1 Jun 8 #68

A shithead centrist who lied, and pretended to be Emile Jun 8 #48

Yea, you got to be careful LisaL Jun 8 #49

Got it. Quit believing centrist bs. Emile Jun 8 #53

I think at this point Fetterman would qualify as a republican. LisaL Jun 8 #54

Actually he has a slightly better record Emile Jun 8 #56

Bernie's candidates should be vetted more. Fetterman is Trump Nixie Jun 8 #72

Schumer's candidate had a stroke Emile Jun 8 #73

What was centrist about Lamb's platform? betsuni Jun 8 #87

Conor Lamb's centrist platform Emile Jun 8 #88

Have just read a bit about him, he's focused on constituents, local issues, practical, knowledgable. betsuni Jun 8 #105

Thank you, it is an obvious rabbit hole that poster is focused on to smear anyone not a Berniecrat as a Nixie Jun 8 #137

Trying to make "centrist" mean scary radical right-wing extremist cabal conspiring to destroy nice progressives. betsuni Jun 8 #160

Exactly, absolutely working overtime to paint regular moderate Nixie Jun 9 #165

That poster is embarrassed by their former support for Fetterman and is busy retconning him as a centrist in 2022. BannonsLiver Jun 8 #121

Fetterman voting record says Centrist. Emile Jun 8 #158

It's not "AIPAC" or the stroke. He's just an asshole. themaguffin Jun 8 #29

As Fetterman inanely attempts to straddle two parties, I'm reminded of something former AG John Ashcroft once said: RedWhiteBlueIsRacist Jun 8 #41

I'm no Platner fan but Fetterman is stooping to ugly levels with this one. Unacceptable. nt Blasphemer Jun 8 #47

Yep, I understand answering if asked that he doesn't approve, but Fetterman seems to be going out of his way LisaL Jun 8 #52

Since Such a Negative Is Impossible to Prove, This Is Just a Publicity Stunt. MineralMan Jun 8 #51

Sure after they release the unredacted Epstein Files. Ritabert Jun 8 #55

It's pretty weird that the same group of political consultants gave us both Fetterman and Platner. N/T lapucelle Jun 8 #66

Fetterman needs to sit down and shut his Alliepoo Jun 8 #118

In case no one mentioned it, isn't "can prove he never sent..." asking him to prove a negative? FullySupportDems Jun 8 #130
