The Pennsylvania Democrat recalled his time serving as a Hillary Clinton surrogate in 2016, even after he supported Bernie Sanders in the primary.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Sen. John Fetterman has a message for the progressive wing of the Democratic Party: get in line behind President Joe Biden.
He continues to recover from an auditory processing disorder caused by a stroke that happened during the 2022 campaign.
Both Sanders and Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York have also endorsed the incumbent president, despite their occasional criticisms from the left.
“At the end of the day, like, do you think Donald Trump is going to be talking about issues and, you know, his white papers?”
Fetterman also recalled a conversation with Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema in which he said he would remain “neutral on all of that,” despite his previous suggestion that he would support Gallego, along with the fact that his top political strategist is now working for the Arizona congressman.
Last week, during a similar briefing with reporters, Fetterman referred to the potential impeachment of President Biden as a “big circlejerk on the fringe right.”
The original article contains 434 words, the summary contains 159 words. Saved 63%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
The fact that we can’t endorse him without comparing him to the dumpster fire on the opposite side is why we don’t like him. If “better than Trump” is all you’ve got going for you, we might as well vote for a pile of wet socks.
He promised not to upset the capitalist apple cart, and he hasn’t. He’s not a progressive.
Strong disagree. I’ve found Biden to far, far exceed my expectations for him. I’ve been very happy with his presidency, above and beyond the fact that he’s not Trump.
That said, I’m curious which specific policies of his you disagree with. I have several, but I’d like to see yours.

Experience Experience Experience. We needed an adult. We needed someone to come in, clean up a bunch of messes by making some tough calls and not just waiting around for perfect. He’s greatly exceeded that imo.
good lord, how low were your expectations out of the gate?
Pretty fuckin’ low. But now I’ll enthusiastically vote for him again.
do you not understand that this guy was elected on “he’s not trump?”
As someone who’s first election being voting age was 2020, he’s the best president of my lifetime, that’s not a high bar to clear, but he has.
Is there a single Republican candidate that progressives would support over Biden?
I look at it as Biden will pass any progressive legislation given to him; he isn’t the problem. Instead, I would look at the tons of legislator positions and ask them what they are doing to be progressive at the state and local levels. Lock those people in so on the next election, Democratic presidential candidates will need progressive support.
And prep the House and Senate so progressive legislation can get passed. Biden has only vetoed 6 bills in office; I don’t see him being the logjam for progressive legislation.
Lol no one wants to answer your first question.

Biden doesn’t want to pass progressive legislation, if he had any inclination towards progressive he wouldn’t have stood against union railroad workers.
He’s a right leaning centrist through and through, it’s just that in America that looks “progressive” when we’re used our right wing party being progressively more fascist over the last few decades
The bill he passed went through with a veto proof majority in the Senate and there is no indication he wouldn’t have passed the bill to enforce union demands if it got to his desk.
Why not challenge the Democrats in Congress who voted to end the strike?
