The Changing Politics of John Fetterman
from City Cast Philly · host City Cast
This is our weekly Wednesday politics episode. John Fetterman was elected to the U.S. Senate as a darling of Pennsylvania’s progressive Democrats. But recently, those politics have appeared to shift: Fetterman was the first Senate Democrat to visit Donald Trump after the November election. He has voted to confirm 10 of Trump’s nominees – including Attorney General Pam Bondi, who challenged the 2020 election results in Pennsylvania. He has supported a Republican budget and bill to deport more immigrants. He even flirted with Trump’s idea of taking over Greenland. So what’s the deal with John Fetterman? The Inquirer’s Julia Terruso joins City Cast Pittsburgh host Megan Harris and City Cast Philly executive Matt Katz to try to make sense of it all.
