There’s been no bigger political surprise for Trump voters like Democrat Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania. When we first met the man, he was awkward, slow-speaking and dressed like he was going to the gym. Was this a joke? Fast-forward to today and he’s the only Democrat who seems open to working with President-Elect Donald Trump and avoids much of the name-calling his party has lobbed at MAGA voters. He sounds sensible. Crazy, right?

Listen to this wisdom. (WATCH)

NEW: Senator John Fetterman says Trump won because he protects the American way of life, says Trump is not a fascist like Kamala Harris claimed.

Fetterman says he knows a lot of Democrats in Pennsylvania who voted for Trump.

Fetterman, especially after suffering a stroke, has  settled into the job of being a purple state Democrat. After his scare, he seems more articulate than before. Some commenters are actually crediting his stroke for the sudden shift.

Yes. Why is he so different then the first Fetterman we ever saw. His speech is different, his mannerisms are different and he looks different. I am not into conspiracy theories, but he seems like a completely different dude.

How does someone get a stroke and get smarter? 🤔

Hell of a plot twist right there

Yep, no one saw this coming. He’s become one of the few Democrats that Trump voters like, despite where he stands on many issues.

Fetterman’s refusal to label Trump voters as ‘fascists’ seems genuine, but is also smart politically. Hear out these posters.

It’s also strategically a good move for him considering how split PA is. He doesn’t have the luxury to have extreme opinions because he wouldn’t get reelected.

That’s strategically true for many democrats, including the presidential race we just saw, but it still doesn’t stop them from painting anyone who’s not a Democrat as a fascist. Credit where it’s due for Fetterman here

Others say he’s talking the talk of a classic moderate Democrat, but say his voting record doesn’t reflect it. They say the true test will be voting to confirm Trump’s Cabinet picks.

He’s saying all the right things, but Fetterman votes with Democrats over 93% of the time. I won’t believe him until he puts his votes into action for Trump’s policies.

Or at least votes for his cabinet nominees.

Fetterman seems like a transformed man. Definitely, more thoughtful and measured than before. His breaking with his party in the treatment of Trump voters sets him apart. But, the real confirmation of this change will be whether he supports Trump’s agenda over the next four years. If he does that and gets reelected, that’ll be a stroke of genius.
