I'm assuming this comment was made in jest. I think he sees the insanity of much of the Democratic party, but I don't think he would flip Republican. I could see him running as an Independent.

Yeah, I don't see him actually flipping, not unless Pennsylvania manages to go much deeper red. Being that it's purple I think he's trying to be middle of the road so he can appease both sides a bit. The sad thing is...what he's often saying makes a lot of sense, and we need more of that instead of more partisanship.

I was wrong on him. His record was terrible and to be fair, he was mentally out of it when he ran. His recovery has been stellar. He’s uniquely honest about his positions. I think he will be hard to beat.

We you wrong about him or has he removed the Democratic glasses he was wearing?

Honestly I didn't think he was going to recover from his stroke and that he'd be a little more than a puppet in Congress. He was struggling with his speech heavily, struggling with what to say. I wasn't pulling for Oz either, really hated him as a candidate, although at the time I thought he might be the lesser of two evils so to speak. I've just been really shocked at the turn around. Fetterman is speaking well, he doesn't always tow the party line and will buck against trends, like in his support of Israel along with speaking to Trump's cabinet picks rather than automatically throwing them under the bus. In the last year or so he's just been a no-nonsense, rather sensible representative more often than not, and he's tended towards less partisanship.

I was wrong about him. He might be the most level headed person in Congress.

"The border numbers came way down and the American people are safer and better off" I guess next they'll be touting a 20% increase in everyone's chocolate ration, and their record setting production of razor blades and work boots.

Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass had a moment similar to Biden's infamous "Pause" blunder where she says something stupid without thinking in the video below. "All of this can be found at URL." You can't make this up!

The gaslighting level from our government is so insane. Peak Soviet Union would be jealous of this.

Pushing hard at the age of 82. If you don't pass this bill, I'm going to take a nap until you do.
