Sen. John Fetterman continues to impress with his willingness to defy his party and stand up for what is right, even if it’s not fashionable to do so right now.
While the left is busy hating billionaire Elon Musk and everything to do with President-elect Donald Trump, Fetterman is not willing to jump on that bandwagon so easily. In a recent interview, the Pennsylvania Democrat discussed Musk’s accomplishments and said that he would be willing to work with him.
Watch:
NEW: Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) has kind words for Elon Musk, vows to work with him.
“I admire @ElonMusk. He has been involved in very important parts of American society.”
“Yes, he’s on a different team, but that doesn’t make me an enemy […] Hey – he has made our economy… pic.twitter.com/FDuzYb7us7

“Do you see yourself ultimately working with folks like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy?” an interviewer asked Fetterman.
“Yeah, I admire Mr. Musk. He’s been involved in very important parts of American society, AI, SpaceX, and other kinds of things,” the congressman said.
“Yes, he’s on a different team, but that doesn’t make me an enemy,” he continued. “I don’t … automatically become a critic. It’s like hey, he’s made our economy and our nation better, and our politics are different, [but] that doesn’t make him an enemy.”
X users were pleased to hear that at least one Democrat is willing to work across the aisle to get things done for the American people.
Who would have thought Fetterman would be the voice of reason.
he sounds like a Democrat from 20+ years ago.— InstructorJohn (O-Ga) (@jej117) December 5, 2024

I swear those strokes knocked some sense into him. His heart doesn’t seem to be full of hate like most other Democrats in Congress. He just has different policies than us. We can work with that. It’s hate we can’t work with. And most Democrats hate Donald Trump.

This guy sounds more intelligent and reasonable than I ever would have given him credit for.
If my tinfoil hat was any shinier, I’d wonder if this was the same Fetterman from 2 years ago. ♂️

Fetterman coming with the common sense that his party traded in for identity politics.

Fetterman like him or not has always spoke his mind and never gave two shakes! He’s always been more humble and honest than the rest of the hollywood politicians whose policies switch like the wind!!
