Fetterman says he is an "aye" on Mullin nomination

He wasted no time...

What a piece of traitorous shit he is. We haven’t even had a damn hearing yet! Can you at least FEIGN that your lazy ass kind of sorta wants to do you job for a few days and maybe ask the guy some questions before you vote yes?

No ethics or morals at all. Just a complete sell out to everything he ran on.

4. 'Aye' is in 'yea' or 'yes, he's in favor of voting for him'

He could be in awe too. Who knows Fetterman is an ass hole and is in awe of Trump and Netanyahu.

Jump ship already. The trumpublicans would love to have you. They are already up to their ears in immoral, idiotic, spineless embarrassments hellbent on defending whatever indefensible action the felon takes, but I'm sure they'll welcome one more.

Tragically, states don't have recall power over U.S. Senators or Reps, so short of resignation, PA is stuck with him 'til 2028. However, I would love to see Pennsylvania Dems mobilized to at least get their municipal governments to pass resolutions of condemnation of his failures to defend the constitution and the rights of the people of their state.

It would certainly make some news if such a resolution were passed in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Allentown, or Erie (or perhaps even all of them). And perhaps lobby county commissioners to do the same in Delaware, Chester, Montgomery, or Bucks,

10. We knew you would be an "aye" even before Frumph nominated anyone for the post.

Because that is what a trashbag of a politician would be expected to do. You did not disappoint!

11. WORSE than Manchin

I voted for this loser. I mean at the time he was actually sounding good.

He is basically an attack dog AGAINST Democrats. Manchin was worthless, but he was not quite as insufferable as this guy. We need to retire his ass, 2028 will be his last year in the Senate I hope. We got much better Democrats here in PA.

12. I think that he objectively is. Manchin sucked on budget stuff, but I recall he was dependable on nominations etc.

While there was a ton I hated about Manchin he didn't come off as a two-bit toady for Trump. And he was also from DEEPLY RED West Virginia. On some level I could understand and as a Democrat I would rather have Manchin than some insane right wing shit kicker. But PA is a better educated state and also far from being deep red (It's purple) so it would seem easy to speak out for shit 60-70% of the people want. But Fetterman is going down with the SS Trump and his 35% approval rating. His career will end in two years. Perhaps he can read bed time stories to Trump in his assisted living home.

13. looks to be a dependable vote against the Dem leadership position every important issue that emerges

...looks to me like a fraud against the voters, but I guess they'll sort all that out without the help of someone from my state.

I was with Lamb, all the way.

14. Just wait until November. If the numbers in the Senate are close, he'll turn into a Republican for Trump.

He's the polar opposite of the person who was elected.
