“Ask yourself this question. When the Berlin Wall fell, who ran to which side?”

A Gallup poll released on Monday found that 66% of Democrats view socialism more favorably than capitalism, compared with 38% of Independents and 14% of Republicans.

Citing these surprising results, a reporter asked Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) if he thought this was a messaging issue for Democrats.

Fetterman replied, “I literally was in a former communist nation, and I asked that [question]. I said, ‘Some people in my party, some of the lefties are talking about socialism now. What do you think?’”

Recounting one of his conversations, he said, “He’s like, ‘That’s the worst thing ever. You would never want to live here. I’ve lived through that kind of a thing. You know, you’re going to need a reality check if you ever adopt any of those things. You know, like, you are morons. … It was a nightmare for us, and now we are a free market nation.'”

Asked which country he had visited, the senator said, “It was Croatia. And they’re just like, ‘Thank God, we’ve been freed from that.'”

Fetterman added, “They are just mystified why we’re even having that conversation in our nation.”

There he goes again.
That durned Fetterman, actually speaking thoughtfully and rationally.

If he keeps talkin' like that, the leftist d-coms will expel him from The Party.
He might even get primaried next time 'round...

That's a given, they are even trying to get him to resign!
His philosophy resonates in Central PA ( what Carville called Pennsyltucky) just not with the progressives in Philly and Pittsburgh.

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

Democrats need to stoke out more often.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
