"and they were pushing for a ceasefire last year, and now Israel pushed through that and has broken Hamas and Hezbollah as well now, too." So, is he ok with genocide?
Theres going to be a lot of people in my party who are going to disagree with the strike in Iran, Fetterman said. And I actually support that. Ive always been calling for that thing. I think it was entirely appropriate. And again, there might be votes on that. So for me, thats not a war. That was a very limited military exercise." So, US bombing another country isn't an act of war?

but intending to actually be a Republican?
Ds need to do a better job vetting candidates. I am so sick of trolls like Fetterman, Lieberman, Gabbard, Sinema, etc... this seems to plague the party.

With Sinema, she may have been the most likely to win state wide.

(9,381 posts)PROGRESSIVES need to do better at vetting their candidates and supporting those that have an actual track record of progressive accomplishments rather than simply because they call themselves progressive and/or aren't deemed by them to be part of the dreaded """establishment."""
