Fetterman, Flashing a Sharper Edge, Keeps Picking Fights With the Left

[Hume]

Ms. O’Hanlon is not the only one wondering who Mr. Fetterman has become. Since last fall, the first-term Democratic senator from Pennsylvania has undergone a significant change in political persona. He routinely takes aim at the left wing of his party that he once courted — and appears to enjoy the spasms of anger he produces because of it, as well as the strange new respect he commands from right-wing media outlets that once dismissed him as a vegetable and lobbed sexist attacks at his wife.

The first-term Pennsylvanian has battled with progressives on Israel, immigration and energy, adopting a more caustic political persona and alienating some supporters.

Looks like he is a one term Senator.

Fetterman is 100% correct about Israel.

Yet another positive for Fetterman.

Yet another positive for Fetterman.

For months you lobbed the ugliest insults toward Fetterman and now you're saying this is a positive for him. Hypocrite much?

He's 100% pro Israel, which is a political calculation. He ignores the fact that Bibi is a terrorist who has been responsible for crimes against Palestinians for decades. He's entitled to his political motives, as he needs to stay seated. He'll vote with a progressive agenda on most things, so if he happens to take a minority position re. Israel so be it.

They don't really raise them particularly intelligently in rural Pa.. He's better than any Republican.
