John Fetterman's ‘Trump-Voting Republican' Parents Are Card-Carrying Democrats
2022-10-30
[Federalist] It appears Democrat Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman’s "Trump-voting Republican" parents are not Trump-voting Republicans, but card-carrying Democrats. In what seems to be an attempt to paint himself as an everyman candidate who is more Pennsylvanian than partisan, Fetterman apparently talked his parents into claiming they are Trump voters and Republicans in one of his senate campaign ads.

"We want to tell you something about John Fetterman. He was raised by two Trump-voting Republicans right here in this house in York," Karl and Susan Fetterman claim in the 30-second video. "Us!"

The problem is that Fetterman’s parents are not Trump supporters or Republicans. According to voting records obtained by The Federalist, Susan and Karl Fetterman have been voting Democrat for at least six years—beginning when the couple registered as Democrats to vote in the 2016 primaries.

Lies have become the central theme of the Fetterman campaign, starting with the claim that the candidate possesses the physical and mental capacity to carry out the basic duties of being a senator. In May, Fetterman, in his words, "almost died" from a stroke. Despite Fetterman and the corporate media practically screaming at the American people that he is fit as a fiddle, his facade of supposedly pristine health crumbled completely when he took to the debate stage last week to face off against his Republican opponent Mehmet Oz. "Hi, goodnight everybody," were the first words Fetterman uttered onstage on that disastrous, painful-to-watch night.

#6  Tim Ryan’s masquerading as Trump for Halloween, as well. Nobody is buying any of it. There is a whiff of desperation about the Dem closing arguments.

#3  The "I've been a Republican my entire life, but..." story is always debunked. They keep running it anyway.
