One Democratic strategist said there is "virtually no way" Fetterman does not face a primary challenge if run for re-election in 2028.

U.S. Sen. John Fetterman is more popular among Pennsylvania Republicans than fellow Democrats, according to a new poll of state voters.

Susquehanna Polling and Research president James Lee told PennLive Tuesday that Fetterman’s overall approval rating among state voters is a “mediocre” 41%, compared to 37% who disapprove of him.

However, the eyebrow-raising result that 45% of Republicans approve of Fetterman while just 40% of Democrats do will surely get political tongues wagging from Pennsylvania to Washington, D.C.

      I mean that’s true, but the biggest thing to note of fetterman, he ran basically as one of those. Campaign trail fetterman sounded like he was going for a role on the squad. After he was elected he seems to be to the right of, Senima and Manchin.
