Fetterman has bucked his party on Israel, the border, and the Schumer Shutdown.
According to an Axios report, Democrats are looking to primary Pennsylvania’s John Fetterman in 2028, as the Keystone State Senator looks more and more like the voice of reason in a party of progressive lunatics.
From Axios:
Why it matters: Democrats haven’t flipped a GOP Senate seat since Fetterman did it in 2022. He’s still popular with Pennsylvania voters, even as Democrats turn on him over his softened approach to President Trump.
Potential Democratic challengers are already bashing Fetterman — and each other — years ahead of schedule.
Some Democratic officials are openly contemplating running against Fetterman or keeping the door open to a Senate bid in the event he retires.
The big picture: Democrats who could run against Fetterman include Reps. Brendan Boyle and Chris Deluzio and former Rep. Conor Lamb, according to multiple political insiders in Pennsylvania.
This week, during a televised town hall event, Fetterman’s maverick nature was on full display as he blasted Democrats for the government shutdown and refused to condemn Trump supporters as “Nazis” and “fascists.”
“I would love to have a conversation about extending the tax credits for health care. Absolutely. But I would remind everybody, too, this was DESIGNED by the Democratic Party to expire at the end of the year. This is NOT something taken by the Republicans. They were designed to expire,” Fetterman said.
