Senator John Fetterman’s support is tanking since he decided he is not progressive after all. He supports Israel, voted for Pam Bondi, backed Schumer keeping the government open, and co-sponsored the Laken Riley Act. Democrats are furious about his unwavering Israel support as they promote the anti-Palestine/Hamas movement.
The Wrong Democrat
Internal polling shows him at the bottom with the far-left progressives. Seventy-four percent of self-identified progressive Democrats in the city gave him an unfavorable ranking, while only 22 percent gave him favorable marks. His approval rating was 52 percent favorable to 47 percent unfavorable among liberal Democrats and 65 percent favorable to 27 percent unfavorable among moderate and conservative Democrats.

They didn’t care about that before he differed from his party on a few issues. I’m just saying.
These people gave us Joe Biden, some of whom, like Rep. Goldman, still insist he’s mentally sharp.
Since winning in 2022, John Fetterman has lost his closest advisers, including three of his top spokespeople, his legislative director, and his chief of staff.
