72. Except for the Middle East issues and trumps military spending and boondoggle, not

really.

https://www.ontheissues.org/John_Fetterman.htm

Just like Manchin, he helped us with the majority. Trying to push him out before the midterms is not logical.

No doubt if we are fortunate to win the House back and the house tries to impeach trump, he will vote against conviction in the Senate.

I never cared for fetterman and was hoping. For Connor Lamb, but got push back from quite a few here how Lamb was. Just another “establishment Democrat”.

I have always been skeptical of populists. Both trump and fetterman are populists.
