US EditionFetterman Says Democrats ‘Have Forgotten Why We Lost’
Senator John Fetterman warns that Democrats' left-wing policies contributed to their 2024 losses and urges moderation to reconnect with voters and regain political ground.
- During an interview with CNN's Manu Raju, Senator John Fetterman urged Democrats to "turn the temperature down" after conservative activist Charlie Kirk's assassination, saying they "have forgotten one of the reasons why we lost in 2024."
- Fetterman says the cause is a growing disconnect, noting Democrats have 'really lost our connection with American voters' and some left-wing policies were 'weaponized' last year.
- Fetterman's record shows he votes with Democrats over 90% of the time, supported Trump's $200 million Mar-a-Lago ballroom expansion, and was the lone Democrat voting for Pam Bondi.
- Facing criticism from his own party, Senator John Fetterman faces backlash and potential primary challengers but affirmed he remains loyal to the Democratic Party.
- With a Sept. 30 funding deadline looming, Fetterman may break with Democrats on a spending plan as Republican-controlled Congress nears potential government shutdown talks; on foreign policy, he defended Israel's strikes and blamed Hamas and Iran for Gaza's conditions.
