Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman broke with fellow Democrats again Friday, criticizing what he called the party’s overreliance on anti-Trump messaging and urging a shift toward a more constructive approach.

"My colleagues, and people that are running, whether for the Senate or the House, they're literally running on f--- Trump," Fetterman said on the latest episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher"

"They have campaign commercials [with that message]. It's absurd..." he added.

"I refuse to engage in those extreme terms, and we have to find a better way forward, and now I've been punished [for] find[ing] value in certain views."

I doubt he kids himself that democrats will come to their senses and listen to the suggestion.  Not only not listen but is aware it will be a cold day in hell before they adopt it.

True...but they should listen.

Well, John, most of them don't have any constructive messages.
