Fetterman is the poster child for why the US should allow "recall" elections.
At least for Congress-critters that are, for whatever reason, not the same person that was originally elected.
🤷♂️ 🤷♂️
See, I'd have said George Santos is the poster child for that.
Can we agree that despite how shitty he is, his actual attempt at being a politician is legitimately hysterical?
Like I think Andy Kaufman has haunted his soul just to troll American politics.
There should really be a way for a party or it's base to initiate a recall election. We've had some recent cases of Republicans trying to recall Democrats. It should be for "buyers remorse" and not "we want a do-over".
Honestly there should be both. Just make the trigger for the general recall an exceptionally high bar.

There was one that was more egregious. I don't remember her name, but this one formally announced that she changed sides after winning. To my knowledge, Johnny boy still calls himself a Democrat.
She took decades to change though. This dude did it in one term.
Deal with it? You mean, like, primary you and the 9 other simps who voted for this bill? Okay. That's good advice, thanks Fetterman.
Goes to show you what stroke does to a MF
Brain damage leads to conservatism. We have a shit ton of brain damaged idiots here in the US.
Lead, and microplastics will do that to a MF
Aaaaand the mask comes off
Can't they recall him for brain damage ?
Theres no way for the US to recall federal representatives. Some states allow recalls of state level reps, but none of the federal ones can be recalled legally.

That's like most of geriatric congress.
Fetterman is your standard anti-worker neo-liberal.
Fetterman also wanted to defund United Nations Relief and Works Agency, defended a certain Brian Thompson, referred to the hush-money case against Trump as “bullshit“, said that Democrats need to stop 'freaking out' over everything Trump does, and said that he would ‘fully support’ U.S. troops in Gaza.
Sounds like a mole
Calling it now, Fetterman is going to switch parties.
Maybe not soon, but someday.
He already did long ago
He just hasn't announced it yet because like this he's more useful for the Republicans
He barely needs to at this point.
I hope she will
Sounds exactly like what he said after he threatened a jogging black man with a shotgun.
Same advice to the victims in the most recent (as of this minute, anyway) mass shooting. 3 dead in NM.
Deal with it.
Disappointment has a shape, and it's John Fetterman.
Fuck that guy
Don't forget he met a head of state while wearing a hoodie and no one batted an eye. And shorts! Proud to be an American! /s
Your terms are acceptable.
Ahh, this coming from a guy with the spine of a jellyfish.
Get started primarying this asshole right now.
Couldn’t he be removed from his job due to clear and severe mental health issues and complications following his CVA?
I hope this piece of shit is happy knowing he'll be a single term scumbag.
Man, he really doesn't care if he's going to get reelected. Because he sure isn't, unless maybe if he runs as a Republican.
