Who's thinking of primarying him? Feels like this is some made up nonsense you're being fed. I could be wrong of course. I don't think I am.

They want a sitting senator out of the party who has voted with them 96% of the time.

Who's 'thinking of primarying him'?

Top Democrats in Pennsylvania are maneuvering to run against Sen. John Fetterman in a 2028 primary contest, threatening to tear the party apart in the biggest battleground state in the nation.

Why it matters: Democrats haven't flipped a GOP Senate seat since Fetterman did it in 2022. He's still popular with Pennsylvania voters, even as Democrats turn on him over his softened approach to President Trump.

Potential Democratic challengers are already bashing Fetterman — and each other — years ahead of schedule.

Some Democratic officials are openly contemplating running against Fetterman or keeping the door open to a Senate bid in the event he retires.
The big picture: Democrats who could run against Fetterman include Reps. Brendan Boyle and Chris Deluzio and former Rep. Conor Lamb, according to multiple political insiders in Pennsylvania.

The other side: When Axios began reporting on this story, Fetterman texted, "Enjoy your clickbait!"

Asked a follow-up question, Fetterman said, "Please do not contact."

Fetterman later shared an article about a report from a conservative group showing that he is among "the least Trump-aligned Democratic lawmakers" in Pennsylvania, voting with the president 6% of the time. He highlighted that the analysis showed Boyle voting with Trump nearly 14% of the time.

"ACTUAL NUMBERS," Fetterman said. "less clicks."

The intrigue: Fetterman has long held presidential ambitions, according to people who know him.

Fetterman did not respond to a question about whether he would run for reelection to the Senate or president in 2028.
What they're saying: Asked by Axios if they'll run for Fetterman's seat, the three potential 2028 contenders did not rule it out.

Boyle acknowledged he has a choice to make: "Right now I'm focused on doing all I can to ensure Democrats win back the House in 2026. … After that, I will make a decision about 2028." He's started to build his statewide profile, and activists and labor leaders have encouraged him to challenge Fetterman, said a person familiar with the talks.

Deluzio sidestepped the question, saying he is concentrating on statewide judicial races this year and the midterm elections in 2026. He's appeared at multiple events outside his district, including high-profile rallies with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). He's helped recruit and endorse congressional candidates around the state.

Lamb, an attorney, said he was "in the middle of a trial" and could not immediately talk about the race.
Between the lines: A person close to Deluzio said he would take a "good look" at a Senate bid if Fetterman declines to run for reelection.

Deluzio, who hails from the same area as Fetterman, has not been as openly critical of the senator as other Democrats, but he has publicly disagreed with him on policy.

Some former Fetterman aides believe he won't run for the Senate again because he dislikes Washington, D.C. and is now on a political island.
Zoom in: A majority of Democratic voters in Pennsylvania disapprove of the way Fetterman is handling his job, according to a September Quinnipiac poll.

"There's a possibility of an opening in 2028, certainly, given the trajectory he is on with Democrats," said J.J. Balaban, a Philadelphia-based Democratic strategist.

There has been rampant speculation in political circles that Fetterman may switch parties, but he has said repeatedly he will not leave the Democratic Party.

Zoom out: Fetterman enjoys a positive approval rating overall with voters in his state, which Trump has won twice.

As Democrats look for a way out of the wilderness after losing last year's elections, they have been vigorously debating whether to welcome more moderate and conservative people into the party.

Pennsylvania's 2028 Senate primary will test the size of their big tent.

The bottom line: In a sign that Democrats are already looking to outdo each other ahead of a 2028 Senate race, Deluzio took a thinly veiled swipe at Boyle over his recent attacks on Fetterman.

"Keeping a good working relationship with the senior senator matters a lot more to my constituents than taking opportunistic shots at him," Deluzio told Axios without naming names.

Boyle said in response that he had "been quiet" about his concerns about Fetterman for a long time, but that changed a few months ago when he realized the senator's knocks on the party had "such a detrimental effect" on "how congressional Democrats were being perceived."

That's what they do. If anyone in their party speaks a word of common sense they are immediately lambasted. He's one of the few Dems with any balls left (figuratively and literally).

There is nothing common sense about what Fetterman has done since getting elected.

Unlike republicans, democrats don’t blindly support a person just because of the letter next to their name.

It's true. The Fetterman example makes it perfectly celar that the democrats don't do this.

Have you ever seen anyone flying Biden flags from the back of their Suburu?


You don't drive around the metro area much, do you?


Remember how democrats pushed for Biden to step down after it was clear he was unfit to keep performing the job of president?



Yeah, about a year after it was obvious he was unfit to run for president again. And when they finally started to realize they would clearly lose the presidency to Trump again, and needed an end around to try to salvage the office.

Al Franken was forced to resign after a picture of him fake-grabbing a woman's tits was uncovered.

That was the dumbest thing to ever resign over. It's probably the last time 90% of the people in government tried to act like they had any morals.



Plenty more examples where those came from. You know it's true.
