John Fetterman is an asshole, a Brogressive & has no business being the Senate candidate. He was the mayor of a majority minority city of 2,100 people. Lost in the Senate primary in 2016. He got lucky winning the primary for Lt. Gov. due to a crowded field/low turnout. 1/6
His actions in the video posted was not okay, it was vigilantism and there is no justifying his behavior as he targeted a Black man (yes that’s racism). His explanation makes no sense and he refuses to apologize eventhough he admitted what he did was illegal in the video. 2/6
This story was known back when he ran in 2016 and he was questioned about it. He lost so it was shoved under the rug & didn’t seem to come up in his Lt Gov race. His campaign knew this would come up AGAIN and his still explanation still sucks. 3/6 https://www.phillyvoice.com/fetterman-responds-tip-about-time-he-pulled-gun-unarmed-jogger/
The fact that he refuses to acknowledge he was wrong is telling & he can fvk off. If you don’t want him to be the candidate then 1) Don’t send him a donation 2) Research and gather receipts for his Dem primary challenger. As @lynnv378 has said he need ONE strong challenger 4/6
At one point he was a self-declared Dem socialist, not sure if he is still but once this race goes National that “should” sink him. The GOP would love nothing more than for him to be nominee. Let’s hope a moderate Dem candidate challenges him and gets him the hell out of here 5/6
TBH I’m so over talking about this man and when he gets a challenger I will care more but it’s way too early. The strategy for now is don’t donate and hope for another Dem to enter the race. And we should talk about strategy because he will be problematic, he already is. 6/6
