General Discussion

"According to data from the website VoteHub, Fetterman only votes with President Trump 28 percent of the time. And although this means he sides with Trump more frequently than any other Senate Democrat, it’s not by much: the next-closest senator, Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, votes with Trump 25.6% of the time."

"Moreover, Fetterman has supported Democrats on several high-profile matters. He has taken a decidedly populist tone on economic issues, supporting many liberal positions such as closing income tax loopholes for billionaires, repealing executive orders targeting labor unions, and tackling 'corporate greed.' He voted 'HELL NO' on Trump’s biggest policy priority of his second term, called on the president to fire DHS Secretary Kristi Noem over the Minneapolis fallout, and criticized him for paving the way to increased restrictions on abortion. Fetterman has even sided with the left on contentious social issues. In fact, he has said he is a Democrat because of abortion and LGBT issues, specifically."

In contrast, Senator Oz (R-Pa)would have voted 100% of the time in support of Trump's agenda, and in lockstep with his fellow Republicans.

The time to defeat "Democrats" like Fetterman (or Manchin and Sinema) is in the party primary . Democrats fail when they do not vote "D" in the general.
