Fetterman was always a shill for Israel. He was the DNC’s dog in the Pennsylvania fight. He looked like a schlub, sure. But he’d already spent four years as lt. governor under millionaire industry flak Tom Wolf. Fetterman officially toed much of the party line on social and economic issues, which was good-enough for primary voters when his opponent was a shill as bad as Conor Lamb. But he hasn’t really turned heel so much as he won’t shut up about this one issue everyone hates him for.
Definitely possible Platner’s going to spend the next six years screaming “Sandy Hook was an inside job!” once he takes office, and make his entire personality about hugging a gun. But I haven’t seen this out of him just yet.
I do believe in second chances
He’s not my ideal choice for Senate.
But I do find a certain dramatic irony in reviewing the three people who had the best chance of winning in November, sizing up the guy with the Totenkompf, and deciding he’s the least fascist guy on the ballot.
