When Fetterman was first waving the Israeli flag - I thought he was a gigantic asshole trolling and giving a middle finger to anybody to the left of him that put him into office. I couldn't tell if his use phrases like "Hamas was neutralized" was pure trolling or if he wanted Gaza to be razed to the ground. Then he did vile tweets again and again. It serves no purpose if he stays a democrat. He's doing it for fun and I think he's an "America - fuck yeah!" ghoul. I think he hopes that Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank are removed from Israel by whatever means necessary.

I recently joked about him switching parties. At this point - I wouldn't be surprised at all if he eventually actually does. I wonder how much his stroke damaged his psyche or did it bring out the horrible person that was always inside him?

there never was a stroke. that was just the story they made up to explain his totally unexpected heel-face turn

"Okay, John. It's time—"

"John? Senator Fetterman."

"Yes. Senator Fetterman, we would like you to play the heel now."

"Finally I get to be myself." With menace: "You people better shape up or I'm changing teams."

"You're a fantastic actor. You really are."

"Who says I'm acting."
