Sen. John Fetterman on Republicans trying to impeach Biden: 'Go ahead, do it. I dare you.'
Sen. John Fetterman offered a message Wednesday to House Republicans considering impeaching President Joe Biden: “Go ahead, do it. I dare you.”
Speaking to reporters in his Senate office, the Pennsylvania Democrat suggested that the impeachment push by Republicans on the other side of the Capitol was meant to deflect from the mountain of legal problems facing former President Donald Trump.
"Your man has what, three or four indictments now?" Fetterman said. “Trump has a mug shot and he’s been impeached twice.”
"Sometimes you just gotta call their bullshit," he said.
The first-term senator went on to say that a Biden impeachment "would just be like a big circle jerk on the fringe right,” and "would diminish what impeachment really means."
Note: As pointed out by reddig33 in comments, this is an old photo. Here's a couple examples of his new look.
Who expected a sitting senator to use the phrase circle jerk?
I find it refreshing to be honest. He's definitely not weaseling the answer with slippery language.
Being a fan of Diogones the cynic I to hate vanity. Nowhere is this more apparent than in congress or the house of representatives.
Quoteth Diogones: "in a rich man's home there's nowhere to spit but his face", and republicans are trells, slaves to their masters and as vein as the emperor's New clothes, while pretending to be "rebellious". A bunch of posers, really.
Fetterman is pretty down with it.
For the dirst time in a long time, I'm proud of a person who represents me in the government.
Dude has never pulled his punches.
I think that if the Republicans don’t manage to turn the US into a one-party state, Federman’s got a bright future, and his plain-speaking nature is part of that.
