John Fetterman: I REFUSE to be a part of this

Published October 23, 2025 | Video Starts at 08:48

As I've said, I'll be the Democrat that refuses to lie to the base and pretend that this is right. You know, I'm proud to stand with Israel. I'm proud to say that we need to secure our border. You know, I think it's entirely appropriate to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities. And now I refuse to call on my fellow citizens as they're fascists or Nazis or those things. (08:48–08:52)
