          Fetterman still votes with Democrats about 75-80% of the time. He is not ideal, but he is far better than any Republican.

          Elected representatives are intended to vote the way their constituents want them to. Foreign military intervention and border control are very popular in Pennsylvania and those are the two major categories where Fetterman diverges from the Democrats.

          On top of all that, the parties don’t ever kick people out for how they vote. They only kick people out for misconduct.

            He keeps allowing the Republican party to wage their illegal war, and consistently votes against key democratic legislation. Additionally, how does that statistic fare when looking only at the last 2 years?

                Church guy they keep banning from TV. Talarico?

                Edit: whoops he’s a Democrat. Can’t blame me for the reflex to assume republican what with all the Jesus talk…

                    No because you seem intent on wasting time, rather than understanding anything outside your own bubble. The US is fucked, and blissful, willful ignorance is. why.
