John Fetterman gaining approval. He's becoming smarter than Democrats parties.
"Country then party" What a novel idea
If we had more Democrats like Fetterman, we wouldn’t have such a party politics environment We have people working for America
I was totally against Fetterman running after his stroke but I was wrong. He's one of the only rational Democrats.
Fetterman sticks to his principles and doesn't sway with his party. Love it.
I am a republican but I agree with Sen. Fetterman. I could vote for him. He is strong on fairness and a real human. I'm glad he got that mass off his neck and has recovered well from the stroke. A serious and open minded person.
What a decent and common sense Democrat Senator. Awesome human being! God Bless!!🙏✝️🇺🇸🥰
Agreed!!! Love Senator Fetterman!! The most practical politician in politics
I love John because he says it like it is. No nonsense but totally real and straightforward. He tries to be conciliatory. He is a boat rocker. We need more like him😁
Thank you, Senator John Fetterman
