Fetterman: I'll Never Understand Progressives Who Won't Support Biden
Sen. John Fetterman has a message for the progressive wing of the Democratic Party: get in line behind President Joe Biden.
"Get behind Joe Biden's policies, or you're gonna get behind Trump's policies," said the Pennsylvania Democrat.
Fetterman made the remarks during a sit-down with reporters in his Senate office on Tuesday, answering questions with the help of a tablet that displays an instant transcript of reporters' spoken questions. He continues to recover from an auditory processing disorder caused by a stroke that happened during the 2022 campaign.
To illustrate his point, Fetterman hearkened back to his own support for Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign as the mayor of Braddock, even after he had supported Sen. Bernie Sanders during the primary.
"In 2016, you know, I was a surrogate for Senator Clinton. And it's just like, you have a choice," said Fetterman. "And if you don't get behind Senator Clinton, you know, you are voting for Trump. And that's exactly what happened in Pennsylvania, and it's devastating."
But it will be way funnier if Trump wins
Not for minorities who will be more victimized: women who need abortions, trans people, immigrants, non-Christians, black people, etc.
At least the libs might be openly opposed to Trumps policies and fight back more instead of making excuses for the band-aids and half measures of the Biden administration.
I've been saying for a while the only difference is when there's a republican president libs are talking about listening to minorities but when it's a dem president liberals tell minorities to shut up because they're making them look bad.
Won’t christians be the real victims after they make it illegal to say merry christmas?
That's already illegal. I saw a guy say Merry removed last year and Supreme Leader Biden shot his whole family with an anti aircraft gun.
So much for the ‘tolerant’ left..
Based
This argument would have been more persuasive if Biden hadn't been President for the last few years
Abortions? Basically nothing
Immigration? Worse off
Black people? Worse off
Can you explain how those groups are worse off under Biden?
Abortion - Supreme Court voted to overturn abortion rights under Biden
Immigration - about the same as, slightly better or slightly worse than Obama and Trump. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/08/us/politics/biden-trump-immigration-title-42.html I assume this article has some hand wringing details
Black people - remember Black Lives Matter? We've seen increasing militarization of police in the US and the administration has supported funneling billions in Covid payments to police.
