Sen. John Fetterman offered a message Wednesday to House Republicans considering impeaching President Joe Biden: “Go ahead, do it. I dare you.”
Speaking to reporters in his Senate office, the Pennsylvania Democrat suggested that the impeachment push by Republicans on the other side of the Capitol was meant to deflect from the mountain of legal problems facing former President Donald Trump.
“Your man has what, three or four indictments now?” Fetterman said. “Trump has a mug shot and he’s been impeached twice.”
“Sometimes you just gotta call their bullshit,” he said.
The first-term senator went on to say that a Biden impeachment "would just be like a big circle jerk on the fringe right,” and “would diminish what impeachment really means.”
Note: As pointed out by reddig33 in comments, this is an old photo. Here’s a couple examples of his new look.
You do know voting for a third party in a first-past-the-post electoral system is symbolic, right? It’s a system that just tends to steer in that direction, with or without extra laws around it. If you want a different system, great. But if you vote 3rd party in this one, I just hope you don’t live in a swing state.
Very non-swing state. My electoral representation has voted all red since 1968.
The independent count had been slowly rising since Perot, but trump kinda broke the streak. Lots of support for that clown in my neck of the woods, but it’s all trump specific, so if we see a desantis or Abbott on the ticket, there’s a good chance there will be a surge in libertarian votes. Could plausibly end up with a few independent electoral votes popping up again maybe.
