He said he wouldn't just tonight: https://www.semafor.com/article/01/20/2025/fetterman-shoots-down-party-switch-rumors-not-going-to-happen

I doubt he knew who that guy was, he looks so plain. Please don't jump to conclusions.

Fetterman’s response to the concerns is pretty trademark of his blunt and straight shooter kind of personality.

That said, the article did mention Fetterman has been working to try to get Democrats less freaked out about Trump for everything. Doesn’t mean he will give Trump a pass period but he also is aware Senator Bob Casey lost re-election. This complicated things a bit for Democrats who want to win in PA in this political environment.

Also, I’ve said this before in another thread:

Fetterman just doesn’t compare to Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema. He was a reliable vote for the Democratic Party agenda and still is. That is in NO danger of being threaten right now.

No, even if Fetterman votes for bills that Democrats typically don't vote for, that still doesn't mean he's gone Sinema.

Sinema was who she was in the Senate because of her tendency to become a pain for the Democratic Party in enacting its agenda in the razor-thin majority it had during President Biden's years as POTUS. It's because she halted progress.
