hilarious the (D) party media crying that NBC of all outlets was the one to say “hey, this guy had a major stroke and is still clearly in recovery.”

If you weren't always wearing hack glasses you'd probably agree with basically every policy of Fetterman's.

You mean like releasing violent felons onto the streets or hunting down black joggers with a shotgun? ^_^



No, but seriously: Fetterman is more of a populist-leftie than a member of the identitarian left, and in this sense, he's a better fit for me than many other Democrats. I disagree, however, with most details of his policies.

I do not support the current strain of "criminal justice reform" policies which Fetterman practices and which is driving a surge of violent crime across America right now.
I do not support sweeping gun control measures. I do not support abolishing the filibuster. I do not support a fracking ban like the one Fetterman once embraced before flip flopping on the issue.
I do not support the specific plans which are floated around in US politics under the term "Medicare for All". I do not support a wealth tax. I am highly sceptical of a federal or statewide $15 minimum wage.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg, if I did more research into his positions, I'd most definitely find further major points of disagreement.

I could actually engage with this, but let's be honest it would be a waste of time. You just repeated talking points with no actual research into them. Like always.

The fact that you are saying he's wanting to "release violent felons into the street" means you're just buying into Repulican propaganda lol. He's literally being attacked for PROVING PEOPLE INNOCENT and then allowing them to work for his campaign.

"OMG HE'S WANTING TO RELEASE VIOLENT FELONS!" except they were literally innocent.

Again, hack glasses.

He literally was the only member of a 5-member board of pardons to vote in favor of clemency for Wayne Covington, a guy who had pleaded guilty to first-degree murder.

The narrator in the ad says, “He shot a teenager in cold blood, killing him for money to buy heroin. And John Fetterman wanted him to walk free. As chairman of the Board of Pardons, Fetterman says he’s trying to get as many criminals out of prison as he can. Over the pleas of the victim’s family, John Fetterman was the only vote to release the murderer, the only one.”
[...]
Nothing in the Senate Leadership Fund ad is factually inaccurate

The two on his campaign maintained their innocence and never got DNA testing on the weapons, but weren't proven innocent. They were granted clemency and Fetterman believes their innocence. They weren't proven innocent, so I deleted that line.

The dude in the article has been in prison for 52 years. Not exactly the slame dunk on "wanting to release violent felons". You know that lots of places in Europe have mandatory caps for first time offenders that are a fraction of that right? And their society doesn't implode?

Again, just takes some research (in this case reading your own article) to show how you're relying on "technically right" instead of "the full picture". Something you only do when you perceive it as being against Democrats.
