Summary
Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) will be the first Democrat to meet with Donald Trump post-election, traveling to Mar-a-Lago.
The meeting reflects Fetterman’s growing willingness to collaborate with Trump, whom he praised as a “singular political talent.”
While emphasizing his commitment to representing all Pennsylvanians, Fetterman has supported some Trump policies and nominees.
Once a progressive icon, Fetterman has shifted to a more bipartisan approach, drawing criticism from Democrats while rejecting divisive rhetoric, including Vice President Harris’s labeling of Trump as a “fascist.”

Your summary forgets to point out that he had a stroke and then ceased being a progressive icon. It’s important to note that conservativism is a brain disease and can be caused by a TBI
Or brain worms.
Brain damage is brain damage whether it’s caused by a stroke or a worm.
Fetterman was never a progressive icon. He ran against a mountain of shit and looked better by comparison. Because a heaping mound is less than a mountain.
Fetterman has always been an asshole and a bully. His stroke changed nothing. People just found his bullying of a grifter and bully acceptable and thought it was a one off. Not who he’s always been.
Bro was never progressive, his whole identity is a hoodie.
Never trust anyone from York county
Well, yes. But I didn’t think he ever lived in York County.
He grew up there.
He’s really pushing this “conservatism as brain damage” narrative pretty hard isn’t he.
Not gonna lie, I do wonder if his amygdala got any more active after the stroke.
Can we just kick this dumb arsehole out of the Democratic party already?
Once a progressive icon,
Bullshit.
Connor Lamb called him progressive in attack ads during the primary, and because there was no progressive option, it got Fetterman to the general.
Then he was against Dr Oz, so he got a shit ton of money and everyone voted against Oz.
The media ran with him being a progressive when he never was, and they ran with the narrative that he was nationally popular when it was just the Republican was nationally an asshole.
The fact that he was called a progressive and won doesn’t seem to register with the PA Democratic Party.
Democrats know that progressives win elections. That bit of knowledge being lacking is not the issue. The problem is that they are not a progressive party. They would rather do everything in their power to kneecap progressive candidates than allow them to have influence in the party.
Am I gonna have to primary this asshole with no political experience and even less desire for the job?
I heard he packed his new knee pads
When we vote for progressives, they turn out to be stealth centrists.
Primary
Fucking quisling
Slurp the durp
Defection incoming?
What’s his voting record? That’s what counts.
