Fetterman Tells AOC Exactly What He Thinks of Her on Fight Over CR—It’s Not Pretty – RedState

As we reported, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) suffered a serious meltdown over Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer voting to advance the House GOP continuing resolution, which ultimately allowed the bill to pass in the Senate. 





She flipped out, claiming that if the Senate Democrats voted for the bill, it was a “betrayal” of their House colleagues:

There was even a transparent threat from unidentified House Dems, who supposedly were urging AOC to primary Schumer because he wasn’t doing what they wanted.

Now, one of the people she was disturbed by who voted for the CR, and was a big voice against going to a shutdown, is Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA). 

Fetterman just cut her to the quick, when he was asked about her comment on outrage and betrayal: 

“I hope you can relay how little I care about her views on this,” Fetterman told The Hill Friday when asked about Ocasio-Cortez’s claim that Senate Dems who vote to advance the bill are betraying their House colleagues who voted against it.

“I’m going to stand on what I happen to believe is the right thing to do but ask her, ‘What’s the exit plan once we shut the government down?’ What about all the millions of Americans who are going to have their lives damaged?” he said.

“What about the ones that won’t have any paycheck? She’ll have her paycheck, though.”





Tell us how you really feel, John. That completely nails her and the other Democrats who were with her on this issue. They really had no other plan. Their only plan is always just be against Trump — and that’s not really a plan. They don’t care about who that might hurt in the process. The bottom line is ultimately they were going to have to come to a deal. 

Then Sen. Fetterman really gets her, by saying how much she doesn’t really care about the people involved because she’ll still get her paycheck. Exactly. She can afford to treat it like an academic exercise. She’s covered, so it’s all cool. 

In a broader sense, what he’s pointing out about AOC is why the Democrats have become such losers. They only care about going further left, hating on Trump, and being performative. If they ever cared about the American people. or the things that they claimed to care about, they don’t any more. The unfortunate thing for their election chances is that right now, the American people understand that about them — that’s why their polling numbers are so low. That’s why they lost the popular vote for president, and that’s why more people are now identifying as Republican than Democrat in the electorate.

Fetterman is one of the only Democrats who occasionally acts like he is a moderate or even cares. That’s not enough to save a party. There are far more AOCs in the party now — which is why they are so messed up.
