Pennsylvania Democrat John Fetterman Compares January 6 to September 11 Terrorist AttacksNick Gilbertson 2 Nov 2022
Pennsylvania Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate, Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, on Tuesday compared the U.S. Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 Americans.
During an event Tuesday, Erie County Black Democrats Caucus Chairwoman Selena King asked Fetterman how the January 6 riot shaped his campaign and candidacy. Fetterman began to answer before quickly asking King how it affected her.
“I was shocked that that happened, and especially being a person of color. I know that if they were people of color, it would have been totally different,” said King.
“And it was jarring,” Fetterman responded. “The last thing I would actually kind of think it was similar, that feeling of 9/11, you know, when you see the planes hit.”
Fetterman, who suffered a stroke in May, added:
We had this idea where, you, I watched this, and I can’t believe that you have thousands of people like overrunning, you know, our government like that, and how jarring and shocking and how police officers die there. And now, of course, Trump, and now by Oz, supported pardoning all of them, you know, like this idea — this insurrectionists — that how anybody could believe and try to normalize that is something that we just absolutely can not ever accept as a nation.more
