he lied about it, of course, because trump. But the fact is TFG ran as an "ousider" that would 'clean up' Washington DC.

At least Fetterman is much more likely to be telling the truth about fighting corruption.

Besides, there are several months left. This will not be the only ad, I'm sure. Hell, he hasn't started the "Dr Oz is not even a Pennsylvanian" line yet. You'd think that should be effective.
