John Fetterman calls for Trump pardon in Truth Social debut, cementing progressive pariah status
'Can't believe I ever liked this dude.'
Summary
Sen. John Fetterman faced backlash from progressives after his first post on Truth Social calling the hush-money case against Trump "bullshit" and suggested pardons for both Trump and Hunter Biden.
Fetterman reiterated his stance from recent interviews, arguing such cases erode public trust in institutions.
The response has been divisive, with Trump supporters and progressives both criticizing him.
Fetterman’s broader shifts, including support for Israel and mocking climate activists, have alienated some Democratic supporters while gaining him favor among conservatives.
You're viewing a single thread.
I can't believe I shook this guy's hand at a campaign rally once. Fuck you and your hoodie, Fetterman.
Should throw your shoe at him next time.
Classic George w bush moment
It should happen all the time.
Every time there's a politician speaking in front of a crowd, everyone in that crowd has a couple of projectiles strapped to their feet.
You probably can't smuggle in a bag of rotten tomatoes, or a pie, let alone some kind of weapon, but there you've got those two things right on your feet.
Maybe you get in there and you decide, hey you really like your shoes, you don't want to lose one, so you find something else. A pair of sunglasses. A watch. A hat. Maybe you look around and find something at the venue, like a little plastic display placard.
First of all, none of those things are going to throw as well as a shoe. You're going to sacrifice your distance and your accuracy just because you don't want to walk home with one shoe. Well there's no point in doing shit if you're going to miss, so better to just use the shoe.
Second of all, the shoe is a clear message. You throw your watch up there, he's likely to say hey thanks for the great watch. Even if you threw both of your shoes, they might say hey thanks for the free pair of shoes. But if you throw just one shoe, that's a clear fuck you.
I love how much thought you put into this

Don’t forget democrat joe Lieberman who single-handedly killed the single payer option when obamacare was being voted on. The bought and paid for insurance industry shill joe Lieberman. It’s a shame he’s dead, he deserves the Luigi treatment.
