Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Not sure if he's Republican. But Democrats have their pantys twisted over him and that plays right into the Republicans playbook.
This article is a good opportunity to signal how the left will crucify anyone that isn't in lockstep so it's a great for media to highlight this type of story in hopes that anyone with a public voice should evaluate if they would ever risk siding with the left on anything.
Otherwise this whole story is literally not news worthy but we hear a new one every week. It's a signal
You actually have zero idea what you are talking about here.
Fetterman is not on the left, he is a Democrat in name only.
And the Democrats have like, five people who could actually be referred to as “the left”
I mean that's true, but the biggest thing to note of fetterman, he ran basically as one of those. Campaign trail fetterman sounded like he was going for a role on the squad. After he was elected he seems to be to the right of, Senima and Manchin.
After his stroke is when he really changed. Before that he was a very different person.
Wouldn't want the people who voted for him to feel represented. Also have you ever heard of a RINO?
what about democrats is “the left”?
AOC, Bernie, Fetterman
Bernie is an Independent.
He's a very independent big boy. I hope he stays that way for as long as possible but he's getting older
those are people. your reply does not answer my question. here I’ll help: define “the left.”

Hahaha I forgot about that. But I'm still laughing
Congrats on making everyone around you dumber, because this is the single stupidest take on something I've seen today.
Good, I know you do.
